Please Add Duration Or Lower Recast On Potions

[Camate]

Greetings!

The development team is currently looking into reducing the recast timers on medicinal items.

Actually, in 1.22b we just added the higher tier version of “Muscle Restorative” known as “Giant’s Drink” and the recast timer on this is 15 minutes.

We will be sure to give an update as to the when and how much once we receive that information!

I noticed, and I love you all to no end for it.
Now please tell the Dev team to scatter lvl 45-55 Ogres throughout Eorzea.

I think it goes for ether issue as well. You can restore 100 mp which is not enough even to cast single spell. and you have unknown CD on this, as for the rest of things.

I am looking forward to any changes

the first step is definitely gonna be getting potions off of the same universal timer. it's a very archaic system

You can get Ogre Horns from one of the L40+ Alchemist leves in Limsa if you need some, doesn't come up all the time though.

I almost always use a Mega potion of intelligence when I do a burst combo on blm. It adds a very nice amount of damage and the duration is enough to get off a second thundara. Vit and mnd are also damage modifiers for war and pld, respectively, so they aren't useless if you use them correctly.

So yes, they are situational. Isn't that what they were designed for? As for potions/ethers, they are helpful while you are solo but elixirs are a lot better to carry around when you are doing end game content.

Ya this is something that should be easily fixed come 2.0, I imagine if anything that they hopefully split it into Restoratve, status ailments, curing ailments, enhancement and maybe a separate one for raising allies, unless that one doesn't count toward the medicine cooldown.

I only leveled crafts that mutilate metal and animals, and I want to be able to get ogre horn +1.

Then you would be carrying 1 of each potion that exists...


Maybe just separate potions that buff and potions that restore into separate groups with their own recast (like food and potions now)

or at least let me use as many potions as I want even with the 30 second timmer
