Bugged potions in 1.6, fixed in pts?

Shader_Shibes

As the title states, are these fixed in pts so you can pop them in your rotation. Talking about Panacea of spell power and Panacea of weapon power.

Thanks.

Potions grant buffs now instead of straight up boosting your stats, so if you already have the buff on you a lot of times you will be unable to use the potion until that buff wears off. Say you're in pvp and you need to use a tripot, but some random templar casted radiant aura on you, you won't be able to use your tripot until the radiant aura finishes. That means because of a regeneration buff, you can't get your resources restored by the potion either. How it should work is the potion refreshes the buff duration and applies the other effects, but it doesn't in most cases. This happens in pve with spell/weapon pots because a lot of skills already grant the additional bonuses such as spell power, weapon damage, crit, etc., blocking you from using your potion.

This bug was fixed long ago. No, you don't get the additional buffs, but having the buff no longer keeps you from using the potion (was fixed when 2.0 launched). Potions work for me fine on live right now.

It was definitely not fixed. Magicka DPS typically has to use the Panacea of Detection with Major Sorcerery and Magicka Restore over the Panacea of Spell Power to be able to smoothly pop potions throughout their rotations.

Yeh sorry, should of been a bit more clear in my op . Specifically, its the bug where you fully had to stop your rotation for a while to take said potions, resulting, as DisgracefulMind said, having to utilize other potions, such as Panacea of detection, that you can weave seamlessly into your rotation.
