The return of the Diamond Flask - Will you be using it?

2 Second base duration, 80/80 charges consumed on use.

No. And I'm not sure if there is even a build that would find these useful, or at least more useful than a granite/quicksilver.

Unless they are buffed hard, I won't.

I'm a physical wander witch. Have about 50% chance to crit right now with 7 power charges (gear is not amazing - onslaught league). Once I get some more crit, it seems like it might be alright to run one.

Sadly with only 5 crit it would not even be noticeable.

Only way I ever see using it is on a CI crit char which really just has no use for a potion slot or two. Even then.. maybe not.

I am sort of glad that it isn't so OP where it is required to take up precious slots like it used to though it obviously needs buffed.

Maybe make it so that it can't roll Surgeons and decrease the charges used or lengthen the duration.

One of my alts is a crit build, so yeah. But only if I feel comfortable taking off another health or Manna flask. Granite's are more of a requirement in the later levels.

Seems very effective up to 25% crit chance where it almost doubles it...

Meh... at best, I'd get in like 2 more crits than normal, and use up a flask slot. Not worth it. Maybe at 4-5 seconds and 50/50 charges or so I'd use it.

I play mostly fireballer, a build focused around burn damage. Basically that means i just need 1 crit and the whole thing dies, so my entire dps is focused around getting crits. Still, i barely see myself using these except for certain map bosses that you wanted to end asap.

That being said, i am very happy the Diamond flasks are much weakened, i actually stopped playing PoE during close beta entirely due to Diamond flasks and not wanting an endgame to be all about them.
