I remember to use them every once in a while, but i should use them far more often that i do. I just keep forgetting that i have them.

Depends. Mainly during encouters with strong enemies.
Main problem is, that they have very short time of effect - teherefore sometimes when drinking fourth potion, first one is about to stop working...

Immortality potion was pretty nice (with talent point). It allows you to deflect and stupify off of "unblockable" attacks. Focus potion was nice for keeping up really hard hitting spell rotations, but didn't really find myself using it that much once I had four spell sets I could rotate though, didn't need faster cooldowns at that point. The Power potion packed a punch, but again wasn't really 'needed'. Invisibility potion I never used. Mandrake and tentacular are good for breaking shields. Thunderbrew felt completely useless, always.

Honestly the most real "use" i got out of them, not just having fun, was combat arenas.

I do not I forget about them. There should be on the left because I do not see the wheel. I'm focused on my spell set.

Nah I barely touched them… they were always maxed out despite playing on hard mode

Potions or flowers, always forget them, not realy needed anyways.

Not really.

I do use the plants.

Fights were so frenetic I usually just forgot to use them, tbh, and by the time I could make them regularly with the room of requirement they weren't really necessary to win.

Nope they're not needed even on Hard.

The Focus and Endurus potions are very strong though if you upgrade using talents.
If there are alot of enemies i tend to use thunderbrew and plants, on bosses i try to use the defense one, and the damage boosting ones. But i often just forget i have them, they are SUPER useful if you remember to use them. I imagine they are more used on harder difficulties.

I didn't actually use one in combat until the final boss.

I still have no clue what the point of Invisibility potions are.

With invisibility potions you can use them mid combat, dropping aggro, and be able to petrify again for a time. Technically useful if there's a lot of lower level enemies and you want to quickly oneshot a bunch of them. I never felt the need to, but it certainly has a use.

I think I used the one that gives you extra armor once during a boss fight, otherwise only during the assignments.

combat isn't really difficult enough to warrant using them
