Hardly ever used potions (only in some hard battles)

I usually went to sleep and used some food to regain health after a battle

Well Act IV has a lot of loot and almost no enemies.

Act III used a lot of my potions (Multiple Elementals casting earthquake hurts).

I just believe Battlefields should regenerate (perhaps alternate also) their stock. It's pretty frustrating them having no money, no potions and the same armour from Act I for the entire game.

It'd be nice if they stocked 10 mini healing potions for emergencies. If a merchant in a town ran out of stock, they'd go out of business.

There is a merchant in the BF that restocks them. I only really notice it if I've been in the BF for awhile. Also, try going through the dungeons. I find tons of potions down there.

Some other suggestions:
- alchemy skill
- healing spell (this works gradually so it's good for healing during battle -- will refill you past your limit as you take damage)
- better defense -- don't get hit! Agility, survival, speed.

If your build is that dependent on potions, I'd say it isn't an optimal build. I try to get a character where potions are more a convenience than a necessity.

They beefed this up in the patch, some merchants carry as many as 40 potions now smirk
