I didn't say it was cheap. There ARE people who do it.

The same pre-BC thread on EJ that pointed out the flaws in elixir stacking also noted that chain-chugging was the most powerful MP5 source in the game. While the superlative may have been blunted, it's still a valid criticism: Chain-chugging mana potions is worth (to a non-alchemist) an astounding 75-125 MP5. Meanwhile chain-chugging Destruction potions is worth as much as the best spell damage flask and weapon oil combined.

I'm surprised that Blizzard didn't do this in the original changes to Alchemy. In fact, they probably exasperated it with the increase in potion options.
