Improve the quality of that speed flask to greatly increase duration.

Jsut odd really...I find the order of "value" of orbs to be a tad "forced" by drop rates, Chaos orbs are more useful IMHO then Regal, which makes weak 3-mod rares.
And Divine orbs..man, talk about risky!!

The problems with Glass is that once you found 50 of them (or even less) and maxed all your flask, there are no uses for them anymore. It literally has no sink, cannot be converted to other currency (even at dirt cheap ratio), is not part of any recipe sink (like armourer and wheatstones). Odds there are still a recipe hidden that is designed to sink glass, but we don't know about it yet. At the moment it is the most worthless currency

Stop trying to make fetch happen. It's not going to happen.

You can also trade 8 Blacksmith's Whetstones for 1 in Act 3 Merciless at vendor Hargan.

You need a total of 20 baubles for every character you ever roll. No more.

Not if u use Atziri's Promise or any other unique flask.

They also give +2 to quality too, so you need less of them to max.

It's idiotic to craft flasks before adding quality. On a normal flask, they add +5 quality, which means you only need 1 stack of GBBs to max out a whole inventory (5) of non-unique flasks.

That's the reason they are worth 1 scroll fragment each in Standard. Because Standard is overwhelmed with them by default.

In temporary leagues, they're worth quite a bit for the first month or two (probably 6 whetstones each, whatever that translates to).

I don't normally buy them because I know that I will be able to gather enough quality flasks as I level to vendor for the bauble I need to quality my end game flasks. I normally just run with whatever flasks I find up until I can use Hallowed then quality + roll them.

You really only need 1 each of Granite, Quicksilver etc on any league as the mods you want on them are pretty much always the same. This is often the case for life flasks as well as most characters will just want a couple seething's.

The only time you might need to actually buy some Baubles is if you want to use unique flasks, which are probably the largest sink for them seeing as they require the same amount as a whole belt full of normal flasks.

No sink for them. Flasks are really easy to craft, so when you are trying to get one, you just use 4 baubles, and then alt spam till you get your "perfect" flask. No linking, which could consume quality. They are also really easy to get, due to the recipe. Think removing the quality flask recipe could make them worth a little more, and make those quality flasks worth at least something.

At least you should be able to vendor them for scrolls or whetstones (like 2/3 compared to the 8 the other way around).

At the moment you can vendor scraps for scrolls and whetstones for more scrolls, but when try with baubles you get 1 scroll fragment.

Really useless currency.

Well if I'm not wrong you can always buy these from vendors. Bunch of Wetstones, not that expensive imo.
