When do you tonic?

For very low-level (1-29) pirates, when do you press "T" to drink a tonic?

I said high red. Early enough to be safe, but late enough to make sure no tonic goes to waste.

This is the same strategy I use, unless I'm going up against something way over my own level. In that case I use one early enough to recharge to use a second if needed.

I voted for three - Low Red (not Flashing Red though), Healing by Friend and Healing Myself The tonics are there in case My Friend gets distracted (remember folks - they are there to assist - don't 100% depend on them as they may lock up / get distracted by an attack - and with yourself between switching sometimes your 2nd pirate freezes which means 'heal ty'self' until he un-sticks

Low Red is the perfect time to use your tonic. If you have friends healing you, they might be low in voodoo or something that prevent them to see your health monitor or lost you on attune. Hit the T in the low red .

Low red though sometimes I'll just switch over to the doll real quick and use drain life. I try not to take on something by myself that I can't take down before a needing tonic though. Reds, yes, but not that high of a red.

If i don't have my second computer running with a second pirate for healing, I wait until I am in the low red. I don't spend much gold on tonics. Well, except for me hair tonic. Got to keep up the look.

You need another option: "Too late". That would be my choice.

It depends on how fast I'm getting damage. If I'm fighting say a boss who takes a long time to kill but is not doing a lot of damage, I'll wait till I'm in low red. If its a high level regular NPC that is hurting me fast but doesn't take long to kill I'll take it when I'm low yellow.

I have used my first pirate to heal my second when my 2nd was a wee pirate, but he doesn't need it now. I also stand near healing NPC's as much as possible.
