okay, my first thought it, why is it even there? You can use the tonic again to remove the upscale effect. But if you wanted to have a timer so badly, why so short? 15 minutes?
I’m using it on my asura, and it’s great fun, but I’m so annoyed by the fact that I have to constantly reapply it.

so for the love of the five gods (I’m still not counting you, kormir), please remove the timer or upgrade it to 24 hours or something.. there’s just no point to it other than it being an annoyance. I mean, there’s honestly no reason for it to have a timer other than to annoy people who use it

I’d certainly prefer no time limit. And if that’s not realistic, I’d like to know why.

There’s probably some point to it, otherwise none of the combat-enabled tonics would have a time limit.
(For what it’s worth, snowball doesn’t have a limit, but Endless Gift does — it might be the difference between transformations and other sorts.)

but if it has a timer, someone must’ve entered code for it, right?
then they must’ve actively made the decision which we experience as negative but won’t tell us why. If for that matter, if there’s a 900 in the code (I bet codes work in full seconds, but maybe it says 001500) can’t they just easily uppen the number?
