Purple potion

Postby Thilindel » Sat Sep 10, 2005 9:57 pm

any reason after _years_ of being in the game, that purple potions were downgraded to a useless lvl 17??? They used to be great for zoning when tanks were uber busy, but god they don't last one hit.

not sure when the level was changed, but the only thing that changed on them recently was the ansi and a keyword. (within the last few days)

they used to be lvl 30 stone, now they're only lvl 17 If that was a mistake please change back..they're the reason some spanks never happened in zones when all hell broke loose. I was actively using them Friday and they still last for 4 hits at most, now they fall as you get hit once, but don't block any damage.

Yeah, they've been 1hit (maybe) wonders for quite a long time, however I *thought* they were 21st or so.
Been forever since I IDd one...

I used to collect them about three years ago and they were most definitely 21st level. Even then folks laughed at me, and they *were* almost useless...but on rare occasions they made the slightest difference and I survived. To make them 17th lvl is just rediculous... those three lizardmen are global trackers with swim and DI and all the works if I am not mistaken... they also take a Pimped out troll with blind procs to solo, if you are a warrior. They should give a better protection, even if it is a measly 21st lvl.

The mobs that the potions are on aren't that hard.

Tell that to all the people that have died to them when they've been drug out of their hole.

the potion also comes with poison, which I believe wears away at the stoneskin. so if enough poison rounds have passed, it's possible that the first hit will drop the stone.
