Healing Potion healing from 385 to FULL!

Healing Mist Potion healing from 289 to 500

Rock Armor armor rating from 23 to 200

Fire Resist Potion from 50% to 60%

Cold Resist Potion from 50% to 60%

What does the scouter say about the Healing Potion's power level?!

 

Also, something something grumble grumble spirit blade.

Oh wow, my potions are useful now. Call me the chemist! I may now use potions according to situations. I never did waste potions for poses or just for fun so I saved a ton of them.

 

Edit: About the bees, I never understood the popularity of them. In SP or MP. I never used a jar ever. So they have a 10% chance to panic per second?

Did Luke change Spirit Blade (small font at the bottom) or does that mean that the last change to Spirit Blade was not a good one, and he has to change it for a third time?

That's still too low tbh. I'd prefer 300% with 25 mana

cool! I'm hoping the slower volume of balance changes is going to be offset by some really awesome changes in an upcoming patch

Wow , great improvements ! Lately , I was using healing potions only to wake up quickly when an enemy knocked me down , because only 20%~25% of my helath was healed , making it useless to actually heal ...

And I agree with Innarra , the reg potion it's useless for high promoted players , it should heal % of health per second IMO.
