View Full Version : Useless mana potions?

Hi,

I spam my 3 skills with Angela absolutely all the time when available, the fire AoE, the magic missile and the fist.

I have never used any mana potion yet and I'm lvl 14, I'm almost 100% full or very close to it.

Is this on purpose?

Thanks.

Edit: 70 views and no answer? At least tell me if you never run out of mana as well.

I'm level 11 (Angela) and I only ran out once; during a solo run, at the boss fight. I wasn't doing particularly well that run, so I don't know if that's why..

But no, other then that, mana potions have been indeed useless. Then again I pretty much only used 1 health potion as of yet as well.

Health potions are quite rare now but these I need them.

I almost never use potions as the HP/MP orbs I get from killing enemies and destructibles are enough to keep me going. Of course this might be different in Blood difficulty (Highest difficulty in the 2nd set of dungeons)

(LV 15 Angela & LV 6 Tude)

I too have noticed that Mana potions are almost useless. Health potions might be worth a bit more on some bosses.

Generally you're able to deal enough and move out of the way without getting to much damage back.

Buffs use a ton more mana than abilities. I ran out of mana in a boss fight because I kept renewing by 4 buff abilities.

I've somehow managed to make due with just the healing skill

Also, ♥♥♥♥ the library good god

It looks like they might be more useful at higher levels. I ran out of mana twice on Angela (was lucky with slots to restore 100% hp+mana part way through) when soloing VH Abandoned Wing.

Argh, that level. It doesn't help that trying to defend after a combo makes my character do an aoe stun burst thing, which is completely useless in a level where enemys can and will attack you from offscreen. :mad:

Oddly enough, I breezed through library 2F.

The ♥♥♥♥, man? ಠ_ಠ

I play with Angela so the library may have been easy because of her, but always dodge around the area and take out any and all ranged units before grouping up the melee units to aoe down.

The church area vh mode can eat some potions up depending on your skill.

Find myself using one or two every time i try to kill the sinfull seraph vh mode simply thanks to his fireball spam. (blocking it to reflect it still causes damage and doesnt always hit him)

They're for Frantz.

Seriously, he burns through mana like nobody's business starting around level 8.
