I'm not sure I agree with every specific complaint and the general tangent this thread has gone in.

That said... Flasks are clearly not in a good place right now -2 or 3 use flasks are a pain in the arse and are detrimental to the flow of gameplay. They were definitely better and facilitated a much more smooth and fun experience in previous patches when they had more uses.

Also on the subject of flask feedback I feel like having five flasks is excessive. I barely ever use number 5. Combination of having to reach to get to the 5 button and having a limited attention / focus for which flask has how much charge. My fifth flask is generally full when my other four are empty.

Suggestion then, for devs if they are concerned about how much healing/mana a player could carry around all at one time (hence the huge flask nerfs) -> remove fifth slot, increase flask capacity proportionally so that total amount of flaskyness on the belt is the same, just condensed into four rather than five slots.
