📋 About This Mod
BIG update for patch 1. 04!
Lots more potions added, potion CHARGES increased, toxicities lowered!
-----------------------------------------
This is another patch injection for longer potion durations.
It will make changes to some but not all of the potions in the game.
Some potions can be upgraded, so if you see three numbers it means level Example: Blizzard Potion has 3 levels. At level 1 it now lasts 25 seconds, at level 2 it lasts 30 seconds, and at level 3 it lasts 40 seconds.
Below is a list of the modified potions and their new lengths: Petri: 60 / 90 / 120 Thunder: 90 / 120 / 150 Blizzard: 25 / 30 / 40 Full Moon: 90 /120 / 240 Golden Oriole: 90 / 120 / 240 Whale: 240 Maribor: 60 / 90 / 120
If you want these extended or decreased, let me know. I'm open to suggestions.
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED IN THE README.
This mod should work with existing savegames, and you can always revert to the normal times by keeping a BACKUP of your original file when you install and switching back to it. (You can use the uninstaller, remember)

With 866 endorsements and over 20,000 downloads, it's a popular quality-of-life tweak for players who want less frequent re-buffing. Last updated in 2015, so compatibility with current game versions is uncertain.
