I’ll sum it up. Potion making in its current state, to me, is seen as POTCO’s lazy excuse for its lack of crafting mechanics. Plus it’s unrewarding and inefficient. The only reason I mastered it was for overall completion and not cause I was so busy crafting ‘useful’ potions. Upon mastering it, I know I’ll never go near it again (except when RC is out). There is no real reason or motive pushing players to partake in potion making as there is to either looting or sailing (which both add replay value to the game).I actually do like the potions, and i do use them. But I am not understanding the point of why they "should" be removed. If there was a issue to them causing harm in the game, then by all means please remove them as they are basically just a fun time waster, that I am sure those that do it enjoy. I understand you and many more do not like to do them, but besides preference and opinion, is there more of a reason to remove? I can go for a overhaul, maybe a potion point system that will go towards buying a better Staff or Doll Or Enchanted Weapon. Like the PVP rewards system, You can only get those items through PVP. Well you can only get these items through potion crafting. But don't remove them, Cause there are some that actually do like them for whatever reason.
So then, you're all set!I’ll sum it up. Potion making in its current state, to me, is seen as POTCO’s lazy excuse for its lack of crafting mechanics. Plus it’s unrewarding and inefficient.

The correct thing to do (aka my opinion) is to modify the game and ensure that it works properly without potion making, then removing potions and creating a more lucrative alternative that doesn’t limit you to gypsies around the Caribbean and feels both fun, useful, and rewarding.
There are two other alternatives. Either the addition of crafting as a separate skill from potion making (and potions are untouched) or a replacement of potions with crafting and potion making being left as a small mini-game.
But again, this is all my opinion and I don’t see potion making going away anytime soon.
This is [suppose] to be a family oriented game, for kids and adults...potions [is] just a useless, annoying aspect that [shouldnt] be added to our lvl weapons list.
How would you know what most kids have the patience for?I meant that most kids dont have the patience for useless lvling of potions, sailing is already a grind, but at least has a reward at the end (if you dont crash upon landing). There is no reward for the insane grinding of potions, so we are already set up to feel like we fail on lvling up a character on a game that is supposed to be fun because to be consider a "complete lvl 50" at this time, you have max out potions. It should be a side game like repairs...
Maybe for those that do complete potions, they can be given a badge or something, like pvp and svs has.
I'm not arguing your point of view, you are.[Base] on my friends that play.. why do you have to keep arguing my point of view? o.o
Maybe its just me, but whether or not I liked potions or participated in crafting them, I still would never agree with removing something that is not broke, does not harm the game, is not bugged and glitchy, just because of my personal preference. Since when, does me not liking something become so important that I must take away the from the pleasure of others that do like it. (regardless of my opinion on how many play it) I will simply not participate in that area. I could care less for PVP or SVS. MY solution... I find other things that I do happen to enjoy, and focus my energies on those.
The problem isn't that they're "difficult". They're incredibly easy. They're just so gosh darn tedious. I don't want to do potion making because it's horribly horribly boring, and I don't play video games to be bored.I'm guessing some people are either intimidated or challenged by potion making and would rather it just went away instead of mastering it or ignoring it.
Such emotionally charged replies by a select few pirates show more than a reasonable dislike for potions.
I understand they can be difficult, but they can also be easy, depending on how you approach them.
I personally dislike fishing and across 6 mastered pirates, none has mastered fishing.
But that doesn't mean I'm gonna get emotional about it and call for it to be removed.
It's part of the game and no one makes anyone do anything they don't want to.
If you don't like potions for whatever reason, don't do them.
To make irrational statements and attack people pointing out the fallacy of their arguments is uncalled for.
Savor it!
Why would you make potions if they bore you?The problem isn't that they're "difficult". They're incredibly easy. They're just so gosh darn tedious. I don't want to do potion making because it's horribly horribly boring, and I don't play video games to be bored.
