so im trying to rework the potion mechanics.
as you all know the instant you hit the health and mana potions, you get instant results.

while i was playing other arpg, this is too easy.

the normal potions in titan quest and diablo 2 had a timer .. something like 10-30 seconds before you can use another drink.

all potion had a cool down except for the rejuvenation potion which regen both mana and health instantly.

below is a small file i made which kinda had the same effect i was looking for with a 30 seconds regen timer instead of the default instant.

try it out and let me know what ya think.
be sure to remove all the previous bought potions in your inventory.

all the mana and heal potions were altered and i added 1 new potion, the rejuvenation.

this is only for FATE undiscovered realms.

very cool, bringing in the cool down idea to Fate. in the game I play there's cool downs for about everything. even various attacks have cool downs of a few seconds for basic ones, to 5 mins for better ones up to an hour for some skills. food, potions and scrolls all have some cool down. even some of the crafting items and recipes we use for crafting in game items have cool downs. one of the ingrediants in the high level armor has a week long cool down, and the item recipe itself has a week long cool down so it takes some time and planning to make a full 6 item set of that type armor.

hey old timer.

the idea is to stop the potion spamming not so much as to a trading skill.
i know what you mean by per week on items in games like wow where transmuting an arcanite bar or a moon cloth would take 2 days with its 48 hours cooling period.

further testing, this idea is pretty hard when fighting higher level monsters.
now i know why the developers made the potions instant heal.
