Default Using two tonics at once

I was wondering if using two tonics at once (by clicking fast) is considered bug abuse. I've bought a lot of tonics for party points and I was planning to do this to speed things up. Want to make sure first whether or not I'm breaking the rules. Thanks.

It is possible to use 2 Tonics at once, if you're really fast, you can make it 3. I spent alot of tonics, when Dwayna/Grenth was in Kamadan, and we were dying so after u get up u can use another 2-3. Also instead of zoning, i went in an area, pulled some big aggro to shrine, died, used 2, died, again etc. GL with your title.

Clicking 'Deadly Paradox / Glyph of Swiftness / Shadow Form' is way more abusive than clicking 2 tonics at once imho.

I've went through several stacks of tonics going from GH and ally GH back and forth and had no problems. Many guildies and alliance members also do it and I didn't see anyone have a problem. If you do it too fast you may get disconnected though.

Very few tonics can be used outside since they do not have the animations required for most actions. As I recall, Frosty Tonics cant be used outside but the Candycorn and Elf tonics can.

I did the same for using mass DP removers for my sugar title. I went to a town that had a shrine nearby (Rata Sum) and brought 3 UA monks and brought Blood is Power on myself. I used BIP until I was dead, got rezed with UA, ate a few candy canes, died again. By the time one monk had used UA, another was recharged and ready to rez me again.

I wish they removed the timer from tonics but I did not know you could use 2 or 3 tonics at a time if you are quick enough. Thank you for that

Idk, maybe it's just me but it seems so many people are JUST now discovering it. Personally I've known about it for years. It's not something that people are trying to hide or anything, and imo it doesn't seem like it would be considered even remotely against EULA or the rules.

Strange to see so many posts popping up, although it is after Wintersday. Still, didn't see anything about it after Halloween.

I discovered this method a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong while ago. At least over a year back.

I finished my party-title a few months ago by zoning between GH and Menagerie, using non-explorable area tonics.

quickest way I've found is the Isle of the nameless in the burning ring. Using a hero with flesh of my flesh, after a couple deaths you start to go down fast.

I think the NPC's heal you, so you won't die.

They don't heal you. I've used the Student of Burning to blow through numerous DP removal items and tonics.


This is my method of choice to get through non-spammable consumables.

I used BIP and a Fastcasting mesmer with Flesh of My Flesh. After about three reses the mesmer reses you with so little health that one click of BIP kills you. I thought it was going to take ages to go through my stacks of various candy canes, but it was really fast!
