it better be broken.
EP and alchemy need a deep look at.

No wonder my pots weren't killing anyone.

there's your fix for the imbued rings. Just out of curiosity did the tester in question have the alch skill on the char at the time, or this was just a dexxer throwing pots?

Had gm alchemy...

just looked at stratics alchemy page
at gm alchemy 50ep against 70 fire resist the damage range would be 18-27 with an avg of 22.5 your avg was 22.5 from your test results
at gm alchemy 70ep against 70 fire resists the damage range would be 20.4-30.6(not sure which way they are rounded) with an avg of 25.5 your avg was 31.2 from your test results

dont use them myself so im not sure what changed, the only thing i can see is you are getting abit more damage from the xtra 20 ep. perhaps the enhance pots multiply's across instead of stacking( which would give a damage range of 21.6-32.4 and an avg of 27),still your results on the 70 ep seems higher than that too. you sure u werent using the 30 ep marty brace?(not sure what cap is on ep, 80 im guessin)
