<DIV>I use poisons a lot; often three at once. They have a noticable imapct: more damage, significant debuffs, etc. But I rarely use potions.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The potions I've seen on the broker only seem to make much difference if you're tanking, or need better resists from AOE damage.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>If soloing a tough named, I might use a potion to raise my resists, put on a damage shield, or heal me. But if grouping, the benefit doesn't seem to be worth the cost. Won't the increase in strength, agility, hit points or power for 30 mins bring only a tiny increase to my dps or survivability when dps'ing for a group? And would it be worth the steady drain on my purse? Wouldn't I be better off paying extra for legendary poisons, than paying for lots of potions?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I sometimes use food with stat increases, but the extra stat benefit is very small, and the cost on the broker significant.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Do other swashies use potions when dps'ing for a group? Do you use food and drink for stat increases? If so, which do you use, and is the benefit worth the cost?</DIV>
