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

granite flasks are too good, even after the change.
quicksilver flasks are mandatory, if you don't want to die 'cause of boredom.
not much room for diamond flasks.
Im running a EV/ES, acrobatics, vall pact/ghost reaver, LGoH/LL, crit based shadow (wow a mouthful) and i am almost positive that this flask is going to be build enabling. With the inherent low crit chance of bows building power charges is going to be a pain and so this flask (used instead of a quicksilver) should make soloing bearable. in a party though i would forgo this flask for a quicksilver since party kill rate would be too fast for this flask to be effective and MS is more of a bottleneck thank kill speed in parties anyway.
Hey this is a signature! pretty cool stuff...yeah...
i will use it cause im crit build

Which reminds me, its now past past-time flask charges are spread out to nearby party members, with the killer taking the most.

Just too many things that does not work in parties due to the way flask charges function!

indeed. which is why i play solo or with a friend or two occationally. plus solo is a much bigger challenge, tried making a duo build using conduit and it got really easy. creating solo builds is a lot more challenging. especially if you try to build one around ideas that most people say 'that could never work.' hence my weird build using life and es regen with acrobatics.

Chris has stated that they are still balancing the duration and the recharge.

I reserve my judgement (to use or not to use it) after the patch :)
But I guess w/ a dual sporker and surgeon affix on diamond flask it could be fun.
TBH, I never use any flasks other than heal/mana/quicksilver. Ever, on any build.
In a very grind heavy game the death penalty equates to...more grinding.

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.


this

as full ci your flaskbar looks like 3 granites 2 quicksilver

cant think of a build which could utilize them considering how easy it is to stack power charges

If they up the base duration to 3 seconds, maybe.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.
