Why the hell did you take off the potions from chests loot?

Leveled to lvl 7 and didn't find a single potion.
Just new trashy items!

sell the items and buy more potions with the money then you would have gotten in the chest?

They probably did it because you can turn in collectibles for potions to a lot of collectors now.

I was hoping this thread would be another rage on weak healing potions (SFHP is scum!). At levels below 7 I do not recall CSW potions dropping, only CLW and CMW potions- of which both are fairly weak after reaching about 80-100hp (assuming no healing amp).

What I do think however, is that CSW pots that drop around lvl 5-7 would be nice. Nice in the sense that they otherwise cost +- 75PP without haggle, and thats a lot for a new player. It also creates, imo, a sense of "COOL, CSW POTS! I gotta save this for the fight against the red named boss"- thats something to intrigue a new player or just any player that could benefit from it at that lvl. On my lvl 17 elven ftr with 425 hp, it took about 20 CSW pots to get from 70ish hp to 410 something, which is just stupid (of course, no great healing amp).

Back on topic, although these pots are imo useless after lvl 5ish, you can buy cure light wounds potions in stacks in Korthos for a good price. With healing amp, if your lvl 7 was a light monk = WIN

Save and turn in those collectables. The Moderate Elixir is 20 + 20-40 over the next 10 secs., lvl 5. Improved is half again that, lvl 10. It's not as good as turning in 2 Wavecrasher Cargo Manifests for a Cure Moderate wand but it's better than nothing.
