    I have 3 multi-class warriors in my party and the potion does not work. This is BS, since many other items designed to work with a specific hero class WORK even if that hero is a multi-class type. What a failure!

    Any other epic fail potions?

    This would be a wish for IWD 2 enhanced edition - make potions work on multi-class.

    Isn't that a cursed potion that kills you?

    I just checked, and a non-tainted version does not exist in Icewind Dale II, only the tainted version. It is not in the item code guide nor in Dale Keeper II's item browser.

    That's what I was saying. It's just a cursed potion, it doesn't "work" for anyone, including warriors, in spite of what the description implies (which is misleading on purpose).

    Actually, the description implies that the potion might be cursed -- "A strange odor can be smelled from the sealed bottle."

    In fact, in IE games, all cursed potions have been labeled as "strange color”, "strange odor" or something similar. So it would be wise to read the description before you drink some mysterious liquid.

    Yeah, all of them tend to have a hint that lets you know that something's not quite right.

    Only when identified, and you'd think that the identification spell WOULD give a hint that the item is cursed.

    The fact that they also have a different potion graphic compared to their normal counterparts is also a huge tip-off though.
    A cursed potion of speed looks like a multi-colored potion of mirrored eyes in baldur's gate for example.

    Well, in IWD2, there is no uncursed invulnerability potion.
