    Potion of the Old War - Bugged? What potions do we use?

    Hey guys, I have been farming up for consumables for the up and coming raid when I noticed a bit of controversy around the potion of the old war (which is recommended by Icy-Veins).

    The potions text states the following "Summons a pair of ghostly fallen warriors that will echo your melee attacks and abilities. (1 Min Cooldown)" however according to the wowhead comments and some testing done by myself and a few other people, this potion seems underwhelming/maybe bugged.

    Talking to someone who was using the potion, he stated that the potion would add about 100k to 250k to the TOTAL damage done. I then decided to try it myself with the following results: imgur.com/a/rYgL2



    Now mine did 400k total damage with 4 total hits on a full opener with CDs.

    The question is: is this working as intended? Should I be using another potion as a rogue? Should I use the ranged potion deadly grace or the draenor agility potion?

    Thanks

    Can you post meters of what your potion did? How much damage it did, how many times it hit and such? I am pretty sure when I did my test, I did not use Vanish, but I will run a re-test tomorrow on the potion to get a clear picture on what is happening.

    I've noticed it sucks pretty bad. My results are around the same, where it doing around 400-450k damage in fight.

    You have a higher damage increase popping a 1000 agi WoD potion during your opener, which is sad.
