When you're in Inferno and have over 50k healh, 12500 health doesn't do much.
They should do the potions like this
Normal - 25%
Nightmare - 50%
Hell - 75%
Inferno - 100%
Simple.
Agree? Disagree?

Do you want the cost per potion scaled too? And the same pots to drop in every difficulty? No thank you, I enjoy it how it is.

I think it'll be better to introduce a new set of potion strictly for Level 60s that is percent based. Despite Normal and Nightmare not being that difficult I see little reason to give them the gimped potions while Hell and Inferno getting the good potions even if they need it more.

Yeah good point, but yeah maybe the potions are scaled ONLY in Inferno. So you have 4 different kind of potions (like I outlined). That are randomly dropped like everything else.

I second this. Y'know, just in case you find a piece of good gear that happens to have that affix on it.

From: IronMonkey008 | #008I rather they just change or remove the cool down, cool down on a potion is just real silly to me. I could understand if there were potions that added extra buffs as well but not for just normal healing potions.
You would really never run the risk of dying unless you were 1-shot every single time.
Get hit and almost die? Use some form of CC so you can spam your potion button until you're back to full health.

Level restrict them if you want differing yet scaling potions.

They could set a limit with how many you can carry like the D2 belt, spam (you will be using a lot to fully heal) and run out.

or they could just make the mobs in inferno not melt through your defenses no matter what they are so that a 12.5k pot every 60 seconds will work fine so long as you avoid the avoidable stuff. the reason it doesnt seem like its enough is because everything does idiotic damage from act 2 forward that no amount of healing can keep up

Imagine the outcry if potions were limited to how many you could carry despite the change to having no CD.

This is a good idea.

Yeah true... we also need our own invulnerable potions as well to fight the elites.
