I'm not laughing because it was not allowed to stay in the game. It's more so the fact people think this flask was actually good to begin with or if anyone who had a clue about the game would even use one much less five.

um ,, capped res', 250+ life across the board permanently .... why wouldn't anyone prefer that over flask use, except for maybe that wormblaster build or whatever

Because you can already get maximum resistances using unique flasks in addition to vastly more damage and defensive power.

You realize the difference between this piece of trash item and a 1 alteration orb item is the life roll and ease of activation and the fact the bismuth flask can roll a suffix affix like warding/adrenaline and staunching.

How did you plan to mitigate, freeze, shock, bleed using 5 of these again?

It's proof enough how clueless the majority of reddit is when only 2 or 3 people pointed out how bad building around this flask was.

i am not sure if you are considering the fact that these stats were in effect even when the flasks weren't being used..... mitigation to ailments can be gotten many other ways besides flasks or simply with just 1 kieras

I'm not sure if you considered people already got effectively 100% flask up time even vs shaper on a temp league or the fact kiara's doesnt stop bleed/shock or the fact it lasts 2 seconds or the fact you'll be running slower than a snail without an alchemist QS of adrenaline.

Maybe you intended this flask to be used with cyclone IIR builds in Act 10 for 8 years till they could afford the mirrors to buy 5 flasks?

IF you think this flask is anything other than a noob trap then I can say nothing more to convince you.
GGG should have let it stay so people could waste mirrors for a paperweight.

you're probably right, i am one of those newbs who hates builds that rely on flask uptime so for me this newb trap would be awesome

And so is most of reddit. You'd rather spend 6-8 mirrors so you don't have to tap your flasks once every 8 seconds?
