Argonian Potions

Argonians have this wonderful ability to restore a good chunk of magicka, stamina and health every time they drink a potion. What potions are you using just to keep you juiced? Somehow I can imagine that in many cases it actually doesn't matter much. Or are there so many situations where you really have to pick what to gulp down?

    I get by with the stam pots you can buy for AP

    Can't really afford anything else at the rate I chug them!

    Handles pretty much all my sustain issues.

    On my Argonian tank I use tri-stat pots and they aren't cheap when you're also using an infused neck with potion cooldown, but all kindsa resources

    I like some of the specialty potions for argonians, or just burning through the crap ones where possible. Its one of the strengths of the race, and it is of course their source of resource/attribute usage.

    Immovable, restore health and Magicka are really strong for 1vX style gameplay for Magicka builds and immovable speed pots for stamina. You can never go wrong with tripots either

    I inhale immovable pots in pvp like a skooma addict. Really any pot is a tripot when you're a lizzer.

    Only 1 out of 7 answers who is using the cheapest stuff he can lay his hands on? Everybody else goes for specialized potions?

    Specialized pots are the way to go. sometimes I'll use the cheap pots if I'm low on mats and too lazy to farm but most of the time I used specialized pots. You'll definitely notice a big difference between the two.

    Some builds I prefer Tri Stat pots. Other spell detect. I don’t like entropy. Lol

    Mag, Sorcery, Prophecy are nice too. Frees a skill slot and you still get stam sustain from them anyway

    for my mag argonians i make hp,mag, and spell crit pots, and on stam i make hp,stam and wep crit pots. Ingredients for both pots are cheap and usually the opposite pool of resources i need get almost filled with the passive turning pots into weak tristat pots. Argonians have always been my fav TES race so im glad at least the potion passive makes them useful(ish) for both mag and stam builds (tho wont pull top dps anytime soon but in pvp popping a tristat pot is almost like a free reset on resource pools)

    basic stam potions are the only way my stamwarden can sustain himself without undercutting my DPS by a huge chunk.

    Smooth, fun, gameplay. What the Eff is that.

    Nooo! It *is* too strong though, with infused jewlry and pot cool down glyphs... but only with that combo imho.

    Immov Mag pots 99%; a few others for special cases like detect pots, invis pots, and immov stam speed.

    As an argonian magblade in pvp I use 4 different pots depending on situation:
    - Immovable, magicka, spell crit. I use these at the start of a fight where I expect to take a cc.
    - Health, magicka, spell crit. Bread and butter potion. Also useful to recover from burst.
    - Lingering health, major vitality. I use these when outnumbered and unable to quickly escape.
    - Tristat. For absolute emergencies.

    You can probably get by with trash pots in most types of PvE content.

    However, using cheap potions in PvP is a death sentence.

    My Argonian Healer opts for Immovable Health and Stam.

    If you're a lizard - you can drink whatever you want and it still will be juicy and refreshing, like a good gulp of elite Tri-Stat. I don't feel it fair since it makes Argonians outperforming in terms of tanking or playing PvP.
