I was just wondering how often other people "D"rink from pools when they find them? It can be rewarding, but also has high risks of great play thru going down hill.
I personally drink from pools early game if I find one. But usually skip darkforge pools unless I really need/want something like resitances, teleport control etc really badly. My current character found pool in UD:2 and got death resist and teleport control from it and heard the word "Iceberg". I skipped another pool at UD:5 totally, because I already got great stuff from first one. I'm always little sad to let pool stay, but I have doomed myself too many times trying to drink them all.
Do you always go high risk / reward route and empty all pools you find? Or maybe just sip once from every pool. When do you think it's great time to just leave them? Do you wish pools behaved little differently, maybe drink only once per pool, but more chances of getting good rewards?
