    Poisons, yes. I can never be bothered to craft my own.
    Potions? No. :D

    If by use you mean exchange for gems, then yes.

    If they're from a crate, they become gems. The ones that aren't worth gems are used for DB Sacraments when needed.

    Crate poisons become gems. The level up poisons get put on my bar for giggles while I'm leveling, the destroyed when I hit level 50.

    The more interesting question might be, does anyone actually buy poisons for crowns in order to use them? My guess would be over 99.9% negative on that one.

    My guess is that crown poisons have to exist in the store so that the equivalent items from crates have some sort of value associated with them due to loot box rules in some areas. That way they can say you always get something of value from the crates. We as players know that those poisons are basically garbage, but if they have a crown cost linked to them, ZOS can say they are "worth" X amount even if nobody actually ever buys them at that price.

    The ones from crown crates go back to the store for gems, the level up ones get destroyed as they not even worth the inventory space.

    Crown crate poisons and potions get gemmed, daily login reward poisons get used when I'm just out farming nodes so as not to waste my crafted ones, potions get tossed into a storage chest.

    Never. If I get them in crates of any kind, I always trade them in for gems.

    I did when I was trying to get to CP 160 from CP 100. The poisons annihilated everything a lot faster than I could ;) After that, no.

    I use the tri stat potion if I ever need one. Usually I end up hitting the consumable key by mistake, however. So hardly ever voluntarily.

    If I can turn them in for gems, I will.

    Those from level up rewards or the login rewards then yes I do use them just to get rid off them.

    Edit; typo.

    gemmed or deleted, depending on whether they can be gemmed or not. only crown consumables I use that cannot be gemmed - are health potions and meals on still leveling alts, cause i cannot be bothered to craft level scaling food/keep their pots updated and those consumables are already there, so might as well.

    Login reward poisons get used on my Tank so I don't have to waste soul gems recharging my weapons and to get a little extra damage with him on solo stuff (use Moonhunter on him when soloing so it makes for a great buff to his otherwise low damage)

    Anything that can be traded for gems does get traded for gems. I got my Psijic horse that way. I also wanted the dwarven spider mount, but didn't have enough gems for both.

    They are of so little value they could be replaced with a Brick item whose flavour text reads 'takes up inventory space until thrown' and the brick would be more positively received.

    I use them in PvP if I forgot to remove a magic enchant and someone spamming absorb magic. Can't have them heal up on me from my LAs!
