I've pretty much given up on herbalism. I never see anyone want potions and I never see anyone selling them.
So. Whatever.
If you want a PC dependent economy, they your going to have to come up with some sort of remote persistent way of selling this stuff, much like many servers have and use. Also, by the same logic of removing potions from NPC's, the Weapons should go as well.

I see a world in which the Red Vardo are actually merchants.....
I see a world in which the Red Vardo are in reality a crafters guild......
I see a world in which the Baal Verzi are the ones paid to perform a hit on people and collect bounties.....

Here was Carrib bagging things for Healer Kalan these past couple weeks for herbalism, looking forward to all the useful things. Be sure to use the faction forum of the Sewer Dwellers, let them know if Healer Kalan has potions for use, because I'd prefer getting healing tonics from a pc caliban than an npc for both what might be rp development as well as saving some coin.I appreciate that, but you kinda caught me at the end of the herbalism high. I already had 30 pounds of components (waiting for a certain component to come back in season) and 30 pounds of potions no one wants. So while I did brew some things with those, it's not like anyone wants to buy them. And Kalan seriously doesn't need any more weight on him. He only has a strength of 10 (capacity 86, ick!).
Back on topic, I'm quite fond of the herbalism and yes, while the seasonal availability is a pain, that means you'd better stock up. You can still make moderate potion wounds right now.Yes. Stock up. There's one little component that I used solely for CSW. To the point that I had ~50 CSW potions. But since that is the ONE potion people want from me, I sold all those.

~~~ What a wonderful world ~~~
No cleric can continually heal up a party. There aren't enough spell slots and the resting is restricted. "Curel Minor/Light/Moderate/Serious Wounds isn't worth squat to a high level party in a situation in which lots of damage is taken. What do you do when the cleric runs out of spells? It doesn't take much.
Btw, the only healing spell worth a tinker's damn in the aforementioned high level-high damage party situation is "Heal" and that's a 6th level spell and you get 5 of those slots at level 17.
Discounts for Guards?
Dragomir wants to buy your potions, Zedrik. All of them.

You're kidding, right?Dragomir wants to buy your potions, Zedrik. All of them.
Good then.
Now I just need to find some slaves to harvest herbs and fungus for me...
I'm so burnt out on gathering it's not funny.

Although I don't play anymore, someone tried to entice me to come back with "We have herbalism now."
I groaned as I looked into my crystal ball and saw a world in which everybody was an herbalist rather than those who spent many months of real time RPing it and did book-length research into real world herbalism to portray it properly ingame. Then I felt bad for Ruxandra in a fashion as I envisioned scores of characters who have no RPish reason at all in learning the supposedly secretive "old ways" of Barovia suddenly becoming master herbalists and midwives through mindless resource farming and combining. Then I tossed my herbalism research and remembered I don't play anymore.
It's fine the way it is. Pay people to gather for you.
Has potions been removed from loot tables as well? I haven't seen much.. when I looted.. tho I could of been unlucky.
If they have.. I disagree with that :?

Since when were we comparing smithing to herbalism? I spent a couple of thousand on potion bottles (They charge me 6 per bottle, because I'm rude!) and gave all of the products away.
