thank you for playing! the goal was to make the cauldron spells be a last resort - you're out of potions and youre about to die, that kind of thing. otherwise i fear that any timed debuff will lead to "heal to maximum -> go somewhere safe -> be afk for X minutes -> return full with no debuff".
i'm also glad to see you managed the alchemy table with no issues, and that you figured out combat arts (hurl weapon is my favorite!)
i'm glad to see you had fun! thank you again for playing and for the feedback.
