So I just go the Endless Mystery Cat Tonic today (best purchase ever). The only problem is the duration on it which is 5 minutes. While this isn’t a big problem, a lot of tonics have a short duration for almost no reason. I understand that mechanically, making them have infinite duration might be impossible. But is it too much to ask for a minimum of say 30minutes or an hour duration?

Surrender and serve me in life, or die and slave for me in death.

I’m also a fan of that one. I’m even collecting morph tonics. :-)
What bothers me more that the duration is that you cannot select the morph from tonics which offer multiple.

QoL suggestion: normalize aesthetic tonics (including Selfless/Thoughtless Potion etc.)

  • duration to 30m
  • re-use always cancels
  • select morph via hotbar

Also I’d love to see Combat transformation versions of some existing tonics, especially the Monkey King and Wraith one.

While we’re at it: I would (ig) kill and/or pay gems for an Endless Jellyfish Tonic. That one is kittening hilarious. ^^

Especially the tonics that can be used in combat (Embiggening Tonic f.ex.) shouldn’t have a timer at let, let alone 15 minutes. You can already (de)activate it by using it again, so the timer serves no purpose other than being an annoyance

I would very much love to hear from a dev why these items have such short timers, or even, why they have timers at all. I honestly can’t think of a single reason that they would have timers

The little blue quaggan hatchling tonic that is a quest reward from Straits of Devesation have also been nerfed to 5 minutes. It’s awful.

Unashamedly Qoo Qoo for Quaggans!
