Every game with at least a bit of role-playing elements has them: consumables!
You either get them for bringing back the missing puppy, or you bought dozens of them to make sure you’ll outlive that annoying boss. But not everyone uses them in the same way!
So what are you? a big spender, a hardcore gamer or a saver? read more and find out!

Roughly taken the consumables can be divided into four main groups:
- health/mana replenishing consumables
- stat increasing consumables
- attack/defend consumables
- random/fun consumables

In every class the consumables come in all sorts and shapes. From the simple, but effective, health potions and mana potions to the expensive flasks and disguise potions. Some of them are cheap and acquired in all sorts of quests, chests and stores. Others are rare, take days to brew or cost a fortune to buy.

But what it all comes down to is how you use them!
Are you the kind of gamer that uses a potion as soon as the health/mana bar take a hit or do you like taking a risk and wait till the last moment to make full use of your potions?
Maybe you keep the potions stacked “in case it gets even worse” or are you a player thats always fully buffed before he enters a fight?

Personally I’m a risk taker, I want to make full use of my consumables so I usually wait till the very last moment to use them. Also I’m kind of a cheapo, I’d rather wait for a minute to let my mana regenerate and heal myself instead of using a valuable consumable.

So, what type of user are you?
