Health Regen And Poison Help

Hi guys,
I've just come back to the game after a long break, and I'm enjoying potion making.
I don't really understand the Health Regen and Poison potions. I drank a health one (+7 health regen for 5 minutes) and saw no real difference in health regen, and I drank a poison one (+12/4 poison for 4 minutes) and didn't lose or gain HP? How do these work?
Thanks, Panda

 

these are stat potions, they give you stats.
health regen (hpr) triggers every 7.5 seconds, so if you have 7 hpr in total you will get healed 7 health every 7.5 seconds, -hpr will trigger until you get to 1 hp.
poison is a neutral damage value that will be dealt to the mobs/players you are attacking, 12/4 means 12 poison damage over 4 seconds, -poison doesn't do anything.

 

Awesome, thank you! What is the base hpr of a character?

 

Low but complicated - it's dependent on percent of health you have, but as far as I'm aware we don't actually know the numbers. Generally, it's trivial past the first 10-15 levels.

 

Okay, cool thanks
