Potion crafting/exchange

[dapper hollow]

Vendor that would allow us to merge Lesser potions into Improved then Greater potions, similar to the Material Exchange or Dwarven Foundry’s charm system.

I’ve got 100’s of lesser potions that are just micro-fodder for the mythic essence distillery, but would much rather have a way to exchange them up for usable potions.

this seems like something that would’ve probably been suggested before, but I didn’t see anything in a scroll through the ol’ suggestion list. I apologize if this has been beat to death already

[limber grotto]

Full support, though MDK economy would probably not make it worthwhile

[frail mauve]

or just increase the limit of buying potions

[dapper hollow]

Even if it’s expensive, the lack of Power Elixir and Greater Recovery is what’s causing me to not attempt (or reroll attempts) on DoD F5 or KH. I’d gladly dump 10k gold and a handful of potions to craft a Potion that will give me another worthwhile shot at late-DoD Ajax, etc.

As a benefit to MDK, the 100+ gem cost to re-attempt DoD bosses or strong Rift bosses could be seen as a way for them to sell more monthly gem subscriptions. So it’s a benefit to the players, and an indirect capitalistic benefit for MDK.

It would naturally balance itself out and avoid being a P2W element, because a player would still need the surplus of lesser potions to actually do the crafting

[dapper hollow]

Oh… yeah or this… this seems much easier than my suggestion lol

[frail mauve]

it used to be 1, now it is 2

surely, it can be increased to 3 or even 4

there is a cooldown to sending messages 😓

[dapper hollow]

Did I cause the slowmode as OP? I thought that was just a default for this suggestion thread. My bad

[frail mauve]

it is default, maybe I can just keep editing? Oh sweet, I can just edit to bypass the cooldown

[limber grotto]

Nope, just default as part of discord moderation options.

[dapper hollow]

Or at least put it into the Monster Cave shops or Arena Shop

[frail mauve]

Well there are already potion shops so just stick to that

[dapper hollow]

I’m just hoping for something more than “here’s your 2 potions! Better luck next week sucker!”

[frail mauve]

how about here is your 4 potions, wait until next week

[dapper hollow]

Now that’s something I can get behind

I get to be disappointed twice as much by my failed attempts

But, Ajax for example, the mere RNG of having a Cult or Beast spawn first can completely throw the run. Having an extra Haste to keep in my back pocket could at least salvage it

[frail mauve]

could we also use like more than 2 red/blue potions per battle

[limber grotto]

i feel we should be able to choose what potions/elixirs we need between battles

[dapper hollow]

That could make the Hunt star system fall apart, would require a huge rework

[limber grotto]

but only be able to use 4 at max to keep it fair, in whatever order/sequence

[limber grotto]

hunts could have potion usage restrictions and hero usage conditions to award stars, instead

[frail mauve]

3 star hunts are all possible without potions

[limber grotto]

not generally, no- some may require build switches at times if you cant use potions

especially if you dont have some of the gauntlets leveled up and have to rely on brutus/krita exclusively

[frail mauve]

I just used my isstara/brutus for all Master hunts

[limber grotto]

Well done :)

Please imagine the rest- not every hero is self sufficient in crowd control in damage.

[frail mauve]

just git gud
