The Importance of Alchemy in ESO: A Guide to Maximizing Your Experience and Potions
As I sit here with this much money, I'm not sure if it really matters. But then I see Petri 20% spiritation, and I'm like, "Wait, what's the passive?" And I think to myself, "You know what? If it feels good, just do it." Because, let's be real, we're in ESO, and inspiration gains are everything. So, I decided to give Petri 20% spiritation a try, and I'm curious to see if it actually makes a difference.
I've been grinding away for almost an hour now, and I'm currently at rank 43. I know some of you might be wondering how to get to rank 50, but let's just say that the key is to craft as many potions as possible. And by "as many potions as possible," I mean all of them. I've been experimenting with different potion combinations, and I think I've found a good one. But, before I dive into my potion-making technique, let me show you guys the comparison between the Potions.
As you can see, the Potions have slightly different effects on our character. The Major Brutality Potion gives us 36.6 seconds of damage, while the Major Savagery Potion gives us 3.3 seconds of damage. But, here's the thing: the cooldown on these potions is 45 seconds, which means we can only use them every 45 seconds. Now, I know what you're thinking: "Why not just use the Potions with longer cooldowns?" Well, my friends, it's all about the timing. We need to make sure that our effects are lasting long enough to make a difference in combat.
So, I decided to test out some potions and see if they actually work as advertised. And by "test them out," I mean I brewed some potions and drank them, hoping that my character would gain some experience points. Well, it turns out that the Potions don't really affect our XP gains, but they do give us a bit of a boost to our potion duration.
Now, I know what you're thinking: "But wait, isn't there a Potion that gives us a longer duration?" And to that, I say, yes! There is indeed a Potion that lasts for 40 seconds, and it's the one we should be using. But, here's the thing: this Potion has a cooldown of only 15 seconds, which means we can use it more frequently.
But wait, there's more! If we combine these Potions with some other effects, like Black Rose or Stinkhorn, we can create an unstoppable combination that will leave our enemies reeling. And by "unstoppable combination," I mean a combination of potions that will increase our damage output and sustain.
So, what's the best Potion to use? Well, my friends, it depends on your playstyle. If you're a tank, you'll want to use Potions that give you more damage resistance. If you're a healer, you'll want to use Potions that heal you faster. And if you're a DPS dealer, you'll want to use Potions that increase your damage output.
In my case, I decided to focus on the Medicinal Use passive, which gives me a boost to my potion duration. And let me tell you, it makes all the difference. With this passive, our potions last for 40 seconds instead of 36.6 seconds, giving us a significant boost in terms of sustain and damage output.
But, what really sets these Potions apart is their ability to increase our damage sustained over time. And by "damage sustained," I mean our ability to deal damage while staying alive. With the right Potion combination, we can become nearly untouchable in combat, making it impossible for our enemies to take us down.
So, there you have it, folks! That's my guide to ESO alchemy and potion-making. If you want to maximize your experience and sustain in PvP, make sure to craft these Potions and use them strategically. And remember, the key to success is all about timing and strategy. Happy gaming!
