    I had an idea a while back that potions/ethers should just do a regen/refresh effect, being far more potent per potion than they currently are, but not strong enough on their own to keep a tank up through boss fights. This would help make them something players can keep up to take the burden off of the healer without being too OP. Oh, and the recast timer should be greatly reduced as well.

    I would think it would make Regen and Diurnal Sect somewhat obsolete, giving SCH and Nocturnal Sect a bit of an edge that players would ultimately abuse, i like the idea too but it's as if the potions are nerfed heavily for this reason to begin with.

    Two things: First, regens from different players/sources STACK. Second, I believe I mentioned "not strong enough to keep a tank up through boss fights." It would of course be far less potent than the regen WHM can put out, which is actually capable of carrying tanks through expert roulette dungeons on its own.
