Default Caffeinated potions

My suggestion is to allow the use of heroic essences to boost the power of potions, up to five levels higher. Each additional level would cost yet another essence, so if you add an essence to a Rank 15 armor pot, it provides another 100 armor class, effectively making it a Rank 16.

But to reach Rank 17 would take an additional TWO essences, for a total of three. Adding a third level would require six essences, and ten essences for Rank 19, with the maximum of fifteen essences to reach Rank 20. Of course this wouldn't be worth doing for lower level pots, but if you really, really want to kill that uber boss, this could be a way to do it.

This idea gains the support of me and no doubt many of my fellow drinkers of caffeinated beverages.

I like the idea.
Heroic essences aren't cheap to come across, so it's a good way to use those. Additionally, it would make it possible to craft potions of a tier higher than what is ultimately possible.

Make it so it affects the potion currently in use.

I like it, but would it affect the max level of the potion?

like if a r15 dur pot has 70 minimum would a level 20 have an 85 minimum or would it stay at 70?

This was the reason I was asking the feature to affect the potion currently in use: Who would spend essences for something that they couldn't use because of a level restriction?

No support. It is my opinion that potions already decide too much of the game, due to them being able to add 1500 AC or mitigate 25% damage.

For slow effects, use the slow % but as a negative.

Just repeat for multiple effects.

DO NOT multiply by 1+slow% to get your new delay. 1*1.4 is not the same as 1/0.6 and your answer will be wrong.

That was what I had in mind, that the essence(s) would affect an existing potion, not raise its requirement for use. Perhaps when you right-click on an essence there would be a menu option of "enhance potion."

With essences costing around 70K, going up two ranks would cost about 200k and the maximum of five ranks would cost 1 million, so I don't think potions would take over the game.
