Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Help/Tips/Tricks Health Potions

Health Potions only work on the Deathknight. No matter what I do I can't use a health potion on the Hero. Anyone know why?

Have you highlighted the potion button under your PC, first? You can't simply highlight the button for the DK, then click on your PC's portrait or F1. I know, it's counterintuitive--but that's the way it's set up. You have to close the DK's potions, then choose your PC's potion button. Then, click a potion. See if that helps.

Thanks - that works - the button for my PC is nearly off- screen so I didn't see it - more fool me.

It's just not a very intuitive system that Larian's gone with, this time. They've de-linked some game controls from the portraits, such as inventory display and potion creation/consumption. I'm not sure why they went with this, but I suspect it won't be changed.
