haha, they're not extremely expensive, not at all, why do you keep saying that? :rofl:javascript:quickReply(908896,1,0)

you seem to have a lot of skin in keeping these potions despite constantly saying how only idiots would use them...
Because 360 gold for a temporary buff IS expensive.

Especially for what''s functionally the equivalent of a +1 to hit/dmg for any character that didn't have STR as a gimped stat.
Because yes, that's what the difference between 18 and 21 is, in practical terms.

I know some of you are simply bad at understanding sub-systems and mathematical averages (which is why you cry yourselves to sleep for these potions and then shrug for far more egregious bullshit like Shove as a bonus action or the lack of an attunement system), but that's really your problem, not mine.


Also, it seems some of you struggle to grasp what the crux of the discussion should be, which is NOT the potion's existence in itself (since that's part of STANDARD D&D itemization) but how its duration had to be adapted to the peculiar way BG3 tracks the passing of time.

Dude, for the 100th time, that's not how much it costs. When's the last time you played the game? Why do keep insisting it costs that much?

You can pick up three of them from Auntie for a couple hundred, yo. A couple hundred for all three, that is, not each.

You need a better dealer. My goodness.

lol, as for what the discussion *should* be, I'm the one who created the thread!
