Ruby Flask: 2 seconds?!
The Ruby Flask for fire resistance offers a decent fire resistance bonus for 2 SECONDS. TWO SECONDS??? I mean, come on, make it at least 4! 2 seconds is completely cruel. I would vote for 10 seconds, to make it plausible for a boss fight. Otherwise, it's a 1 potion slot waste, EVEN if you equip it in a boss fight.
This applies to other flasks as well. My article promoting PoE:

To be honest, I've never much seen the point, either.
I'm sure I must be missing something. =0[.]o= =^[.]^= basic (happy/amused) cheetahmoticon: Whiskers/eye/tear-streak/nose/tear-streak/eye/

What is there to miss? Pressing a button every two seconds? ::- D.

mmmh, imo 2 seconds is enough. make it more and flasks will be op.
The only possibilty i see is, making the duration longer, but let us not be able to stack these flasks.. |
|
Can those Flasks be stacked???

Granite flask currently does the same thing, for all elemental types + Physical, far better, for 4 seconds.
The individual flasks could stand lasting 20-30 seconds, and proving a substantial bonus for the duration. | |
2 seconds is a little short.
They could also reduce the number of charges each use uses, and keep the duration the same (thus requiring more micro - but providing more use out of each flask). Also, does improving the flasks quality increase duration at all (i haven't had the chance to test a glassblowers bauble on one yet)? | |

" Armour doesn't work on weapon elemental damage. Your point is still valid though, if granite flask duration is 4 seconds, elemental resistance flasks should last the same. Build of the week #2 : http://tinyurl.com/ce75gf4
