I have another newbie question about power potions in advanced campaigns:
I'm playing Karnon in the advanced campaign. He starts out with a melee trait of 5. Is there any reason for me to drink a power potion, ever? People giving RtL strategy advice have been extremely bullish on the use of power potions. Does it, for example, automatically upgrade any black dice to silver if the normal five-power-die maximum is reached?
FAQ pg12
In the advanced campaign, power potions work differently from the way they are described in Well of Darkness.
Instead of allowing the hero to roll all five black power dice on a single attack, power potions now give the hero five free "boosts" to his power dice, exactly as if the hero had spent five fatigue before rolling his attack dice. In all other respects, power potions are unchanged.
