Macros for purple pots fail, the people who are killing you with potions simply have good timing.

go buy 200 store bought purple pots and practice, It really isnt that hard.

I stopped reading your tripe after this. You obviously dont understand what im pointing out so i wont bother explaining it. It seems that you are also one of said players that require an exploit like this as a crutch.

Purple potions were already seriously nerfed like 6mo to a year ago. If you think it's bad now, you should have seen it when there wa virtually no delay on using them. It feels pretty accurate now, the way it is.

I miss the days (a year ago) when you could para someone, chop a box at their feet, toss a potion and insta-kill them in mid combat.

The only people who generally complain about this are those who run away alot. Granted, I am one of those people, spending 90% of my time trying to just stay alive.

What do you mean "chop a box at their feet"?

potions used to set off other potions on the ground. You could carry a box of potions and an axe. Use a potion, cancel it. Para someone when the counter was at like 2 seconds. Then use an axe on the box next to them, run away and use the original potion and target them. If you did it fast enough, they didnt even have time to use a trap pouch and get far enough away.

Hey the quote is wrong (Miles said that, not me!) I'm not the one saying that! I feel so embarrassed.

and if there is, they would blow themselves up most of the time. as stated more than once, if a person A is using a macro for "double click pot, wait 2.8 seconds-or-sumtin-like-dat, click blue guy." potion would blast right on/in them if target is out of range (which is not so hard to do.) they're just using a hotkey for "click purple pot" and one for "last target"

just make a recall macro or think about a tactic to fight back.
Thank you! This is what I was trying to explain to OP.
