Health potion "upgrade" is a downgrade...

I’m loving the SAB thus far, but I am rather annoyed with the health potion “upgrade.” When I saw that there was a 300 bauble item that would make my health potions twice as effective, I jumped at the chance to get it. Little did I know that it would make my health potions cost 25 baubles instead of 5.

Why exactly would I want to be paying 25 baubles per two heart health potion when I could’ve paid 10 baubles for two hearts with the one heart potion? I understand it might be more convenient in combat (less potions to chug), but I honestly feel ripped off. It’s cheaper for me to buy extra lives (20 baubles) than it is to buy a health potion. Please rebalance this. I’d be fine even if the two heart potions cost 10 baubles (same price as before, just less things to chug), but 25 is crazy. As it is, it’s easier and cheaper to just let myself die than try to heal (was not the case with the 1 heart potions).

Ordinarily I wouldn’t bother posting such things in the forums, but Josh Foreman is a champ and I have faith that he’ll fix it.
