This probably has been asked before, but how do you unlock the last two slots of the potion belt? Beyond being able to hotkey and quickly consume a potion in battle, it appears that this isn't a four slot storage item. The actual potion appears to be stored in your inventory.

Also, where exactly are the potion vendors in POK? Smiley: blush

The bandoleer belt appears to be highly interesting (especially for bards quickly swapping to an instrument). Typically I play either a pally or a mage and have not found a great deal of use for it. Is this more useful for certain classes? Any pieces of expert advice on how to make the best use of this new item?

dont know how to unlock the last two slots, if you can.

but the potion vendors in PoK are in the western traider building. Do a find for alchemy Vendors and they are standing next to them.

As far as the bandileer is concerned. My roomate uses it to switch between different types of weapons that have better stats in better areas. Example, if he is gonna tank (he is an SK) he switches to the one that has more AC and HP, he not he uses a different one with other stats.

Also if your weapon has a good clicky proc that must be equiped to use, switch to it, fire it off, switch back.

I used the bandolier for only 2 of my toons. My bard didn't use it much at first, but eventually I got to where I at least used it once every 2 minutes to switch in my drum for selos. I used it for wind when I was CC in PoT on fire.

My monk used it for pulling. You have to have your ammo in both your ranged slot and ammo slot to throw it. I'd use "pull" to switch those in then back to "normal" to get my stat item back in the ranged slot.

Stupid question: How do you even pull up the bandoleer and potion belt? I have DoN, but I'll be darned if I can figure out how it works.

The bandolier is the B button, the potion belt is ummm well I forget.

The bandolier is more usefull for melee. Like when they need to switch weapons to dps or agro types for offtanking. For casters I find it usefull for switching to a couple of clicky weapons. Also like was mentioned when monks pull using throwing ammo it can be switched around with the press of a button. It's very nice and efficient.
