Drinks inside and outside of Gluttony

[Scilly_guy]

Sorry to revive this thread from last Autumn but I know the subject of alcohol is always on many of our minds. As this thread covers the topic of drinks and has some comments from JC I felt it is relevant. We now have Tea, which provides a regen bonus to one of the humors and a debuff to limit perpetual tea drinking. We can also drink willow bark tonic for a cure and berry juice as a preventative remedy. Do the devs have plans for alcohol? Will it be along these lines? Beer providing regen of phlegm, white wine regen of black bile, red wine regen of blood and poteen for yellow bile? I would love for it to be more developed and complex than that, with a drunk debuff at the very least.

We also have a mechanic that would be suitable for punishing people for drinking bad water, disease... any word on the hydration system being expanded?

I feel a drunk buff/debuff should help with brawling, so fist fighting in pvp (uppercuts, punching etc) why at the same time reducing damage from a sword thrust.

Just so that you know, there are more drinks that give buffs besides tea.
