Potion delay

Post by gyuto455 »

I've heard the europe potion delay is bigger than the chinese. I hate this 15 seconds delay. I die a lot because of it. Is the chinese delay really lower? How long does a chinese character have to wait before poting again??

Nope you can't , European pot delay is 15 seconds, and Chinese like.. 1 or 2 sec?

btw.. Europes have these pot delays so the class Cleric and Bard can excist.. Without the pot delay clerics are just useless.. Join a cleric in your party to heal you and start partying! :wink:

European characters are suppose to party to grind. Up until level 11 ish ~ level 20 (the farthest I'll go with out partying) you can survive with out a party. But after that it becomes almost impossible for some classes to grind (ex. Clerics, mages, warlocks, and bards).

So stop soloing with your Euro and find a party.

The Chinese pot delay is 1 second. Sinces its such a small cooldown to reuse another pot sometimes your character will Over pot so you can add an extra delay to the already existing delay.

chinese delay can be set down to .5 seconds lol., so they can just drink up pots nonstop.

drawback is you waste a ton of gold on pots, and to compensate for the potion delay the european characters do more damage.
'
right now chinese seem stronger because there are a lot of SOS/M/SUN weapons out there and most of the euro chars are still using NPC gear. A lot of euro think that they can also pvp alone, but thats wrong you always need a cleric there.

ok first of all there are 2 types of delay u idiots!!!

if u press "T" then at the bottem u see delay that means that one it get to the point where u use the pot it'll wait a little till it uses it
for example if hp is on 50% and delay is 1.0 sec the person got 1k life then once u get to 500 hp then itll wait 1 sec before using pot (Weird option 0_o)

then one this guys talking about is the wait after u use a pot to use another pot for example i have 50 hp pots andi am a euro cahr. i use a pot so i got 49 now but gotta wait 15 sec to use the 2nd one

sorry for hte long post but i just had to explain it to u guys thuroughly hope u get it now *sighs*

+1 to yin470 (less the rude part)

The Euro potion delay its a restriction, but in the chinese side its more like a tool to compesate the lag, the more lag you have the more delay you need to set, in this way you avoid multiple pot drinking.
