Obsidian potions not stackable?

What exactly does this mean (from release 117 notes)?

 

I'd always wondered how folks could have carrying capacity sufficient to lift a small town, good to see the devs stepping back off the P2W a bit.

 

I'm not a dev/insider, but the statement seems to be saying that if you consume an Obsidian Potion of X which was obtained from the crown store or subscriber rewards, and you also consume a no-trade Obsidian Potion of X, then you will only get one X buff instead of two.

 

Some of the pots we got from the "dark month" (R106?) no trade versions would stack with the regular obs pots - so was a fairly short term thing anyways

 

This is the correct explanation.

 

Ah, that makes sense.

 

The ones I get as subscriber rewards are no-trade.

 

Hmm, that would be very odd then as all the ones I get from the sub "pick one" bags are "No value" and quite tradeable but only the ones I got from the R106 packs are tagged "No Trade"

 

Have you unpacked any of them lately?

 

Is it possible you're still pulling some (rather aged) Meritz bundles out of your rewards chest? Subscriber bundles and potions are all tradeable, and I've never heard otherwise. (Just pulled another one from my rewards to check on this build and sure enough, tradeable)

 

Well, it's a mystery. Here's a stack of potions that I unpacked from subscriber bundles (I never did the Meritz thing) maybe a couple months ago while the stack of 8 directly below it was unpacked a long time ago.

 

Just curious, if it was stackable, how big was MC% in a sum, with gems, food, 160+ skill, and two potions ? Anybody got 40/50+ actuation ?

 

Yup today in fact :

 

I suspect those were the R106 compensation ones - that's what the ones I got from those look like

 

That was the worst offender and was fixed in prompt fashion, as per the release notes. It's the others that were more recently fixed.

 

That might be it.
