Free potions?

[Kiberian]

Sooo people buy potions, but has anyone ever thought to just make a new character and stash their 25 pots, delete and repeat? Am I missing something? I haven't tried it myself but it seems like a possible exploit.

PS. If there are rules against posting this sort of thing then please delete the thread.

lol lets see

25 pots, 15 coins ea= 375g....

you must be the biggest noob in the world to do that -.-

oh, not to mention you have to be a lv4 to stash, which makes it even MORE pointless

Idk, I just see people complaining about buying potions while leveling up, which is why I mentioned it. I would just buy them myself.

[Herro]

I was confused about this too, as potions are really cheap, but i realized people meant elixirs :/

[Guolin]

Same deal here. I was really excited when I (easily) got lots more gold than the 1250g pot price tag.

[Herro]

isnt it 1500 or 3000? when was it 1250 lol

[Guolin]

Eh, close enough. :P

Only reason I complain about buying potions is because I go thru like 5k mana and health potions a week.... I hate it when people post "OMG I MADE SUCH BANK ON THE GOLD DROPS FROM CYBER" Shut up noob, you only made bank because you leeched and never casted a spell or took a drop of aggro. Not directed to anyone in this thread of course .

Another way of doing this is just stashing your potions, no need to make a new charecter. I got like 10k of each pot in the stash right now and I still get my free 25 potions from drops.

Yes, when helping a friend level, I have them hold my pots while I collect them on drops. After a few runs of Crush the Keeper or one of the other areas where the pot drop rate is high, I have several hundred of each in my stash.....I wouldn't waste the time pot farming just to do it, but since I was helping someone level, why not?

Are you saying potions drop? When and where? Do you have to be out of potions for them to drop?

[BorjaQ]

I get like 15-20 health AND 15-20 mana drops during one run through 5 lvls of the lost expedition.

Also, use items with a high mana refresh. At lvl 30 I can constantly heal and virtually never run out of mana. I think my mana refresh is around 15. (As a healer with lvl 5 heal.)

Pots drop until 25 pots of each.

As a mage I don't use many pots. I take my 25 after each few runs and stash them. It builds up pretty fast

You can get up to 25 health and 25 mana potions from drops. They drop anywhere in the game, most commonly from chests. Once you get to 25, you max out and wont get anymore until you use some potions.

How... Tell me your ways Mystical one...

I burn through thousands of potions....

do it same... its a bit annoing.. but i stash whenever i check cs...

[Fyrce]

I use lots of pots also. There's no way I could just collect 25 and stash them.

I minimize my use by not farming much. :P Also it depends on who I'm playing. My mage seems ok w/ mana regen and she heals. My birdie goes through a lot of mana pots; hundreds of them in one session. My bear seems to have the lowest pot usage, though he still uses some, maybe a hundred or so each in a session.

As for the delete thing, I'll empty a character before deleting, but pot farming seems really tedious. The running-with-a-friend thing was the only way I think it could work. You just keep giving your friend your extra pots. However, I'm used to holding hundreds of pots at a time. I think I would freak at being constantly under 500 of either hp or mana pots :P

And you can't stash/hold elixirs.

I remember making my first 1,500 Gold in the game... wasted it on pots.
My first 3,000... pots.
My first 10,000... pots.
My first 30,000... pots.
My first 200,000... around 70k on pots.
I hate how I go in Alien Oasis and I'm always the one risking of dieing.
Everyone else leeches or waits until I get attacked so they can start fighting -__-.
But... pots are pots, not that expensive for 100, I go through around 10-15K pots a week, yes... that's a lot ):.
Devs I just say you give us all 20,000 pots if we're over level 35 and never do it again haha, that'd be great .

I recently noticed the potion drops myself. I normally keep a 1000 of each, but while leveling my new character in the swamps I ran out of health pots and then all the sudden I had 5. Guess I never paid attention before or always had too many in my inventory. It was nice to not have to leave the level without it being completed. I do agree, it's definately not worth farming but it's a good touch.

If I notice I'm using so many pots, that's I'm going negative on gold collection, including drops, I will respec or change my equips. Because if you are always going negative, at some point, you won't be able to afford those pots :P

I've been thinking that myself. Perhaps I am so used to playing my enchantress that my archer tactics are off. I'm using way too many pots to stay alive and use skills. However, that is a topic for another post which I will look into shortly. Sorry for the short diversion!
