So i was spamming tonics today for my life of the party title track and i came across this neat little glitch. This may or may not already be known but i figured i would tell it anyway to help anyone also seeking the track. What i usually do is hit f9 and put the frosty tonics on the top row of my inventory right by the change district button. i change districts use a tonic and then change districts, use another and so on so on. But i noticed that if you spam tonics immediately after you enter a new district you can actually use 2 at a time. This may not seem like much but when you have 15 stacks of tonics like i do this becomes a real help and cuts my time in half. i wanted to make a video of this but for some reason my xfire isnt working.
Well GL and hf playing

-Edit
it appears that you can actually do this regardless of whether or not you just changed districts or not if u spam the tonics fast enough

Just got life of the party!

This has always been there. Doesn't matter if you zone a town or let it wear off, if you click fast enough you can use two or three. I do it in the Isle of the Nameless (Stand in the Student of Burning) so I can spam DP removal stuff and tonics at the same time.

how can you spam this in the isle of the nameless if you can only use tonics in outposts?

Click really fast and you'll use two tonics at once. You can also hit 3 if you use a macro (but don't do it).

You could use a macro (drunkbot would be considered worse than what you would use one for), you already worked for your gold to buy them, or farmed them. As long as you are at the computer clicking, (a macro could simply be 1 mouse click = 5 mouse clicks) as soon as you walk away from the game and it begins to play itself is when you breach the EULA.

I have a mouse with 5 buttons, there are the 3 normal ones, left.right.middle, and 2 side ones. It came with a program that can change any of the buttons so I made a macro 1 click = 6 to open up the ~5 stacks of tot bags i had.

True I've noticed two tonics can be used at once. Thanks for sharing.

I've known this to be possible with the cottontail tonics from Nich...but never for any others. Huh.

How I spammed for party animal is I went to guild list in the alliance window, then went back and forth between GHs and hit "R" to start running. When you are running, the effect is even more delayed. I just start clicking and can usually get 3-4 in. With a macro, you may be able to get even more.

Edit: I can get up to 4 if there's a bit of lag. Up to 3 with no lag.

I think you can get even more if you click on an npc from a long distance and spam tonics between time. For me if I click on a merchant and my character auto runs to them I could hit a tonic after I click but he won't "use it" until he clicks on the merchant. I would have my normal char running to npc the entire length then when he stops he would turn into tonic.

Wonder if you could use that to put on like 20 tonics.

Longtime bug, should be changed to make infinite uses of tonics of the same type. Less annoying for title and doesnt do any harm.

been using that to get my max title during the x2 party title points event, 2-3 uses per rezone was good enough and bulk tonics were always cheaper than 1 use partypoints.

EDIT: Agree they should allow multiple uses of the same kind of tonic, it would save a lot of time rezoning and their server processing time aswell.

getting 3 is hard to do , but how it works is this

click on a npc far away , start auto walking to hit then click really fast 1 tonic, then hit thesecond one right after and i mean right after. please note you will need to have two differant tonics.

Known, but helpful for those who don't know.

It's amusing to do it with Mysterious tonics, because you can be two things at once Like an Abyssal bunny!

I didn't specify the frosty tonic.

The candycorn one and the elf one can be used in explorables.

Er... you just furiously click the tonic upon res. Die again (to remove the tonic. Quicker than rezoning). It doesn't matter how fast you're ressed, you just need to spam the hell out of the icon.

I just spent a couple hours doing this to blow through my stacks of elf/mischievous/candy corn/candy canes.

If you're not getting DP, you're dying too quickly. I just stood in burning and that was fast enough for me to be satisfied but slow enough that you'd gain DP again. Put on your armor or heal yourself once in a while.

Like it's that hard to see when someone is just trying to be stupid for the sake of being stupid.

Take 3 heroes with Unyielding Aura. Take Blood is Power yourself. Spam the crap out of BiP -> heroes will res you immediately -> DP removal -> spam BiP -> heroes res -> DP removal -> etc.

okay, i found a faster way than the UA heroes.

The problem is that you come back at full health and have to 3 spam bip with vampiric.

I made a hero mes, with 16 fast casting, and a 40/40 resto set and only put flesh of my flesh on it.

You come back with barely enough health to live after a few casts by mesmer(they get down to 1 health). Hit bip one time and it is much faster than UA. Give it a try and let me know what you think. I just went inside Isle of the nameless and ate a stack of green candy canes in no time at all. I just bip 4 times then eat 4 canes.

EDIT: A discovery i made. Every once in a while if the mes gets exactly 1 health of less it wont res you. To combat that i brought my obscure r/mo hero and put mending on it. It keeps the mes from going to low but never going very high and one Bip kills me everytime. Works like a charm, i ate 50 greens in 3 minutes. Peppermints and rainbows will be faster since for peppermint you only need 15dp and you get to eat triple rainbows. Now i ate 200 in less than 10 minutes. Not too bad.

Like it's hard to tell the difference between Trolling and a joke.
