Crafted potion cooldown bug?

Potions dropped by mobs have a 30 second cooldown, which is almost useless. So, I finally got around to using some of my crafted potions (Panacea of Health), and it specifically says that it has NO cooldown, yet when I use it, there is still the 30 second cooldown.

Is this a bug or what?

    Indeed. I too have been wondering about this.

    We actually saw this reported recently in a different thread and have passed it along for investigation.

    I turned in a /bug report for it. We'll see what happens.

    It can only be one of two things. It's either a bug, or the item description for player-crafted potions is wrong.

    Hah. For a moment it looked like you said potions should have no cooldown whatsoever. Like this wasn't completely ridiculous and threw any semblance of balance right out of the window.

    I was wondering this myself, I crafted a panacea of stamina which had no cool down and to my surprise it had a cool down. I'm glad someone mentioned this and the ESO team is on it.

    Personally, this never confused me, I just assumed the tip was wrong. Only the gullible would be surprised that something like a heal pot couldn't be spammed.
    Dear Sister, I do not spread rumors, I create them.

    Pretty sure it's a bug. Me and my bro both specialize in alchemy and he has no problem using the potions labeled with no cool down one after another but I have to wait out the cool down for the exact same potion :(
