All DoT flasks are garbage.

Why? Because they dont give as much profit as ichor and dont work on like 99% of enemies and bosses.

I never use any of the flasks, mainly because I can't be bothered to :/ tbh I just buy the crafting station for decoration...

Ichor flask is only one you should ever use and only if you are melee.

I'm generally ranged so ichor bullets. No need for a potion to give me an effect that works already lol.

I find that the bosses are the easy part and its the regular mobs that I have a hard time with. so i would prefer cursed flames to most things as it gives off light and does the most damage per attack so if the mob only gets a few hits it will die soon. also helping for expert mode dodging and shooting

Ichor does (will apply to PVE but not PVP)
10 more dmg for weapons in normal
15 more dmg for weapons in expert

Poison does (will hit most organic and slimes and basic enemies)
-2 life per second for 20 seconds
-6 health per second for 20 seconds (venom)

Fire does (can triggger on some fire immune targets [bug?] )
-4 life per second for 20 seconds

Cursed Flames (hits things even though they may be immune)
-6 life per second for 20 seconds

Nanites (confuse for non bosses) NO PVP
2-10 seconds random timing propably based on confusion resistance

I have the problem that is not related to flasks: I hate mining and fishing. It makes me replay terraria every big patch instead of every week as I want.

The Fire Flask is not useless pre-hardmode, and it's cheap.

But the Ichor Flask is better than all the other, yes.
