I watched a guy doing an honor mode solo run, and I was really impressed by how creatively he used potions. Three examples: 1) Place down healing spells near the edge of a battle then have mage hand throw them at him during the fight. 2) Throw potions onto the ground before a battle then run through them during battle to get the effects without using any actions. 3) Cast sanctuary on yourself then drink an Angelic reprieve or slumber. Hilarious to see his Tav just sleeping in the middle of one of the toughest fights in the game.

Potion of Invisibility deserves to be higher -- almost none of the enemies in-game have See Invisibility, so you can do things like walk all the way to the spiral staircase in the final fight without agroing enemies or surprising bosses without having to make stealth checks. And, like the Potion of Speed, they're practically everywhere. Invisibility + Haste can end most fights before they begin. S+ tier.

In Honor Mode a lot of the environmental stations that allow you to instantly long rest only work once. I've found the slumber and reprieve potions very useful in situations where the game doesn't let you long rest otherwise, like the end of Act 2. Especially since I didn't know they were only usable once was a surprise to me, these really helped my run and meant that it didn't end then and there. I agree with you that normal healing potions deserve at least S tier. I could even see an argument for S+, since they kind of carry you through some of the most difficult parts of the game (as in the early game). Greater Healing at A is neither here or there for me, just depends how you define tiers.

The potion of angelic reprieve is really cheap and easy to get (Lann Tarv in act 2 sells these directly, without crafting), and if you have a sorcerer, this is stupidly strong. If you have at least 4 caster levels, 2 of which being sorcerer, you have 4 level 1 and 3 level 2 spell slots. If you turn all of these into sorcery points, use the sorcery points to create level 2 slots, turn these into sorcery points to create level 2 slots and repeat until you are out of sorcery points, and then drink the potion, you will get enough level 2 slots for 20 sorcery points. Without any additional resource cost (since you get back all your low level slots) So a single potion of angelic reprieve gives you 20 additional sorcery points. And any additional potion gives you even more, the growth is exponential. You can easily buy enough of these so that you can use one after every long rest with your sorcerer

Vitality would be useful to cure the “disease” you get from getting bitten by Astarion to give him his “Happy” buff. Curing disease otherwise requires a Paladin Lay in Hands double charge or Lesser Restoration (a 2nd level slot). Looking forward to coatings, throwables and arrows!

Potions of healing are synergistic with buff on heal items like whispering promise ring and the gloves that apply bladeward on heal. Also, thrown healing potions have an AoE. Effectively, you can have 1 healing potion do the work of mass healing word if thrown by the cleric with buff on heal items to grouped up party just before combat starts. Thrown healing potions also most cost effective way to heal because of AoE. Potion of speed lethargy can be avoided by drinking a 2nd one on the last turn (after you spend all the actions, leave a bonus action for potion), helpful if fights go longer. Only risk of lethargy is from a particular very late game fight that can inflict mindquake slow effect. Angelic slumber is great for stacking day-long buffs. Just before the last major fight, you lose all camp caster buffs and elixir buffs, but can't to back to camp. I always have cleric and wizard/sorc that can cast max level aid, freedom of mvt, deathward, heroes feast, summon mymidon/elemental/deva, mage armor on all summons. This burns through my spellslots and I restore them with angelic slumber, but now my whole party is fully buffed again.

The existence of Potion of Speed (and abundance thereof) is the only reason why I never prepare Haste spell on any of my casters. Combats rarely last more than 3 rounds while your party is hasted. Potion of Speed does not use concentration, so you are not in danger of losing the spell prematurely. Your sorcerer can use metamagic to twin Haste spell? So can my familiar, as long as my characters stand close enough to the bottle.

Great video although I'd put Invisibilty at S+, like, probably the best potion in the game. You can use it to initiate combat by Surprising the enemy, it allows you to sneak by p much any enemy in the game, but the single most valuable use is that you can use it to just end any combat that turns sour. The amount of Honour Mode runs those potions have saved is insane and (while I know this isn't "normal" gameplay) in lone wolf runs they're one of the most valuable resources in the game period.

Normally I just go until I run out of resources, and the challenge is to balance that across the party. But I would like to do a let's play, and an organic rule for when you're allowed to rest again would be helpful for immersion.

For the Potion of Feather Fall, as someone who has been doing solo/duo honor mode runs, I've found them extremely useful, especially in situations where you might easily be knocked off of high ground. An example of this is the Dror Ragzlin fight, if you initiate it from the rafters, some of the goblins do have Void Bulbs, and a fall from that height, especially into the spider pit, can very much be a run ender. So I would consume one of those potions before initiating the fight. Also, seeing Bear Halsin jump down at Dror to initiate the fight is a great "off-brand" Owlbear from the Top Rope, and allies you control & summons do have the option to drink potions directly from your inventory. Finally, for a character with extra attack, you can spend one of those attacks to throw a potion of Feather Fall at yourself and/or an ally, in order to get decent value out of it. And as someone who's played a Solo Ranger with Enhanced Leap & Giant elixirs, not having to worry about the elevation of the place you want to reach is just an AMAZING quality of life improvement.

Based on my experience (so take this with a grain of salt), if you haven't cast detect thoughts on yourself that day and the option shows up in dialog, the game with cast it using the potion/scroll version first, with the potion being priority. I had this happen when talking to the theives outside of the crypt in act 1. I hadn't picked up detect thoughts (the ritual spell), but I did have the potion and the scroll. The option popped up when talking to the gnome and, when I checked my inventory after, it was the potion that was gone.

And this is a total game changer, 10 turns of resistance to every type of damage is crazy strong, expecially if doesn't remove the previous elixir consumed. Terazul is the veteran trick of the game. A lot of people don't about it and it can totally change a battle. Used on a ray of frost build ice sorcerer. 5 spells per turn (1 base + haste + elixir of bloodlust + terazul + bonus action with metamagic) is crazy. On cazador battle my durge shot 4 twinned ray of frost, with 100+ damage each and an extra cone of cold: battle endend at the second turn, the only thing that shitty vampire did was falling prone on my ice 😂

In my experience enhanced leap was actually better than misty step in act 3 because it can’t be counterspelled

Angelic Slumber resets your sorcerer points, so it's worse than Reprieve for solo sorcerer runs.

Beacon of Hope normally not very useful spell, but it makes healing from high level potions quite absurd, like all you characters have infinite bonus action Heal spell.

Just a question, how do people go about precasting potions or things like enhanced leap before a combat starts, without the duration ticking down massively before the combat even starts? Especially when you need to cast it on all your party members

Me: only uses Potions like 10-20 times at most in entire 150-200 long playthrough. Also Me: only uses Healing, Flying & Invisibility and rarely Speed Potions...

Both potions and jumping using bonus actions hinders the potion of glorious vaulting quite substantially.

Thinking of running a rogue assassin multiclassing into a fighter champion for crit rolls. Might dip a level in wizard or sorcerer for the shield spell. Thoughts?

I'd do light cleric instead for warding spell, same thing but you get more from cleric if you're not doing magic damage. I don't think champion is good but I'd definitely go 5 levels in fighter or ranger just for extra attack.

I did something similar but it was 3 assassin, 1 war cleric, 5 fighter / gloomstalker (I had 2 people on it so I did one each) and I think the rest was rogue just for uncanny dodge and maybe a feat. Feats being mobile and ability improvement. I was using bhaalist armour for the vulnerability but you mentioned shield so I guess you want to be relatively tanky, in which case pumping dex and using one of the heavy armours + shield spell (or warding glare) will make you quite tricky to hit

@@watan_5913 Why'd you do war cleric if you were doing fighter or ranger? I like war cleric but it's for the martial proficiencies and you already got those from fighter/ranger.

Honestly I didn't even know Terazul even existed! Actually not true, I did use the single occurrence you can find in the wild. But its only sold from one vendor that isn't otherwise notable and usually ignored.

Sounds like you've only heard people in the US say it. You should also know it's pretty rude to correct people's pronunciation even if it *was* wrong - I understand the impulse because nerds like to be right but there are a lot of downsides and no upsides.

You know if they tweaked flying and made it non concentration id probably use it. I think a lot of players would too. Might just be too powerful at that point though, then again it is using a level 3 slot…. HMMMMMM.
