Suggestion Alchemist Is Useless To Me Because Strength Potions Don't Work

[thegreatpwner]

I felt really terrible when i heard that strength potions don't work on hc. What is the reason you guys made it so they don't work? I would really love it if the staff can make them useful again. ^^

+130% damage.
Think about that.
For a Lvl 65 Necro that would put you at 82.8 (About) damag per left click
With strength 1
Strength 2 would put a NECROMANCER, a class that should not be using mele, at 129.9 (again roughly) damage.

Lets take a class that should mele. Ninja.
At lvl 65 that can do 65 base damage.
Strength 1: 149.5
Strength 2: 234 per left click.

That is the reason Strength pots do not work as in vanilla.
They are also a balance nightmare, as they make skills next to useless when you can just mele shit to death with your 100+ left click damage

Ok, one last question, do strength potions do any extra damage at all?

 

[LordZelkova]

No, they do nothing.
The only way to do extra damage is either Sharpness or skills (Warsong, that one berzerker passive, etc)

TBH Alchemist is Pretty OP with that INstant HP II and SPD II pots

 

[Delfofthebla]

Minecraft Strength potions are literally worse than Hitler.

I don't know what to think about Alchemist anymore ever since 1.7 update and hoppers. This profession is in a place I can't even yeah, just going to stop typing because I don't know what to say.
