For the whole game of EA (I've completed it once), I have used throwing potions twice: in both cases on unconscious characters. Just saying.

It uses a standard action for some healing... most of the time it is simply not worth it. And there is also the risk of healing an enemy.

The whole idea is that no class is irreplaceable but some classes are just better in doing certain things. Clerics have number of buffs, so they are not simple healers. They can also heal sb else as a bonus action (!), which is also very important. So throwing potions will not make them redundant. Not a must either. Which is fine by my accounts.

Whatever they do with the potions, I will still keep Shadowheart around. First, her personality does fit the character I want to play in my first game once it is released. Second, her domain is excellent for sneaking and sneak attacks and she has nice defensive spells. Healing is a plus but not all she can do.
