As the title says.. Free action potion, It has to be the most stupid potion that blizzard ever came up with & is incredibly unbalanced in PvP, Living free potion isn't as bad as it only lasts 3-4 seconds, but Free action pot lasts up to like 60 seconds or w/e it was, and makes you immune to all slows & stuns for a whole minute, This just makes it almost impossible for casters such as frost mage, warlocks, etc to kill meeles cuz we cant slow them or stun them.
I suggest that you remove it, and im sure a lot of people agree, the only ones who would disagree at this point is the lame scrublords who has no skill & feels the need to use it as a meele.
P.s, i main warrior, dont come with any poor excuse that you cant kill a caster without it.

Free Action Potion.

I support this, it gives the other person an indefinite edge over the other while using a free action potion, it takes the fun and skill level out of the game, thus your immune to anything, not having to do ****, while the other cant really do anything to you by any means, it`s pathetic and should be removed I agree.

The only people use them is try-hards that are already in like a 10 man pre-made so you lost anyway regardless of potion, Just the truth.

Free action is 30 seconds if I recall correctly, personally I don't use em maybe on rare occasion, but I don't feel like they should be removed. I rarely see people use em, the only time I see them utilized it's in WPVP. To clarify, I play a rogue so free action potions are a huge counter to me, but It also makes me reflect on myself what I should do against people who use em.
In conclusion I would say to keep em, since it's just part of the game, if people feel like using em they can.

Oh, poor guys, so unfair.

Can not be used in arenas.
Pretty easy to obtain.
You have any and all opportunities to level the game. How is that fair to remove advantage of someone just because you are not capable to counter them? They actually made those potions, but all you do is cry on forum about it.

here comes all the tryhard scrublord meeles who cant fight without free action potion, and to you who said that you have to figure out how to counter it, try fighting a warrior, dk or rogue as a frost mage or warlock & see how you do, you cant counter it, it's unbalanced as fck, casters have to keep a distance from meeles in order to survive or be able to slow/stun them, at this case a mage for an example cant even frost nova, slow or deep, only thing he could do is poly but even then they could just trinket & the other 2 polys last like 3-4 seconds & 1-2 seconds which isnt enough until he sprints/nitro boots and you cant get away

Well I'm sorry friend either try your best to adapt or stick to playing arenas. I used to be a frost mage I could beat a warrior or rogue with free action pots, a good dk on the other hand is a different story.

Regardless the fact that I never used this potion on the server,
Why remove something that blizzard putted into the game. Swifty used this in wotlk too and talked about it in his videos all the time, and blizzard didn't give a single f*ck even though blizzard was watching his videos as he claims, because when he discovers some tricks and bugs it was fixed in short time... FAP potion in PvP could be one of his tricks, people didn't really use it before that in bg-s, but it's just indeded to be like that, and afterall I guess warmane is trying to be blizzlike ? So why should they remove it, it's not arena tournament server where GM-s try to make server as much balanced as it can be, and remove all "unbalanced things" while in same time killing the fun.Edited: November 10, 2016

Well yeah, shamans need to kite using roots/slow, mages need to kite using root/dp/slow etc., (sub)rogues need to stun, and the list goes on. Free action pots can ruin some mechanics but I don't feel like they should be removed, it's just part of the game outside of arena.

My suggestion
Get a DeLorean, travel to the year 2006, send a letter to blizzard explaining the so negative impact FAPs make, come back, no fap in WoW.
-
Member
Well FAP's where justified back then, those were the days where stun and cc locking was a major thing *cough*no diminishing returns *cough*

Cant get away? Use FAP and Nitro boosts? How about that? Or you are not enough tryhard to spend 20mins to gather some potions for exactly such situtaions? Cant get your engineering to enchant boots, that's "too tryhard"?
If people would stop complaining how bad that potion is and go fishing themselves potions would distribute more evenly through players and you would se it used very rarely in few situations. So you yourself are part of this what you call "problem". Wind blows. Sun shines. People are using potions. Deal with it.

We won't remove these potions any more than we will remove all crowd-controls if melees complain that "CC ruins the game for me since I can't get close enough to attack waah wahh." They are part of the game, take them in consideration when you go fight someone.
If you still want them removed anyways, follow Drk's suggestion.
