| What is your favorite Guardian+Battle Elixir combo? |
|

Well, not too long ago in the patches we got the limitation of only getting one Guardian and Battle Elixir buff at one time. Arguments for the pros and cons of that descision are pointless now, but the quandry still persists........ What is your formula for buffage?
I'm a Warlock Alchemist, so I get the opportunity to tinker with many combos. And from my posts on herb pickin, you can just guess that I have a disgusting ammount of mats to keep myself buffed at all times.
Now, my personal fav when we're talking about pots has finally settled on:
Elixir of Major Fortitude
Requires Level 50
Use: Increases maximum health by 250 and restores 10 health every 5 seconds for 1 hour. Guardian Elixir.
-PLUS-
Adept's Elixir
Requires Level 50
Use: Increases spell damage and healing by up to 24 and spell critical strike rating by 24 for 1 hour. Battle Elixir.
And I do still use these a lot when I'm farming, and that farming requires killing. I'm a crit whore to be sure, but sometimes that kinda gets me in trouble when I'm raiding.
Recently I got yet another discovery:
Flask of Pure Death
Requires Level 65
Use: Increases spell damage caused by Shadow, Fire and Frost spells by up to 80. Counts as both a Battle and Guardian elixir. This effect persists through death.
Now this is the shiz for me right now on so many levels. I'm still sportin plenty of crit stats in my raid gear, and invariably there is someone in there boosting it up a little more. Not to mention we aren't what you would call a "Plow group" in the raids. It's always a tough fight for us and my increasingly improved gear just makes me hop-scotch up the aggro chart some nights. So the "Persists through death" functionality gets put to use more than I would prefer......lol
So, what combination of Elixirs is floating your boat right now?

Yep Drucila Earthen Ring is my PvP toon...you will not find out much considering she is wearing all white gear on purpose...for just that reason so competitors cannot spy on me!

For the Battlegrounds I can see where the cost of consumables makes it hard for the regular Potion/Elixir users. The Flasks do make better sense there. Personally I don't use either when I do that but that's because I'm still sorta in n00b PvP training.
I've done a lot more PvP in the Arena, and you cannot use any potions there at all. But in an environment where everyone else is using a Flask buff like the BGs I would think that leveling the playing field would be in order. A flask is no different than getting AI from a Mage, or any of the many buffs that the Paladins hand out. Do you debuff the Priest's Fort buff?
I guess I could have even thrown in "What buff food........" as well. In the raids I'm usually sporting all three(or a flask + food buff).

I only use molten armor in BG's. AI is not worth the mana cost to cast after each death compared to the extra mana it gives me, and fort lasts me all of 1 minute usually...im squishy and tend to die. Which is fine because if i die at least im taking you with me!

Well as a Lock there isn't much more gratifying than being killed and watching one of your DoT'd targets drop from their ailements!
For grinding, farming and 5 mans I rarely have dead time. Learning new bosses it's always good to use the flasks.
I'm like the guild drug dealer. At 1G per pot most of my running mates stay well doped up for the fights. And of course I can't stay out of my own stash! Shoot, every once in a while I still make Gift of Arthas to infect those who would dare touch my robes!
