I have 10 Gileon’s Brew. They give my character 20% damage. But the Elixir of Damage gives 15% attack speed and 15% Lucky Chance. I’ll try Gileon’s Brew, of course, but I do not see any real advantage to it.
Did you mean to say this in your head but instead of accidentaly saying it out loud you typed it to forum?
Happens to some of us, I guess.

Thanks for letting us know.
I haven’t played recently but that’s interesting. You’d think elixir of damage would be the 20% damage.
Stay safe! Make sure you’re havin’ fun!
That’s very Diablo-like.

It gives 15% experience bonus instead of 8% I believe. Or it might even be 20%.

Knoland, I can see your point. But as a long-time player of all four Diablo games, I’ve seen that every new one takes some getting used to.
depends on your build.
a DoK Victimize Rogue will benefit from the 15% 15% more than the straight 20% damage, not only will it proc the victimize explosion more if you dont already have your LH maxed, but the attack speed increases DoK damage.
a build that has nothing LH related, will benefit from the 20% brew more than the EoD.

Doesn’t Gileon’s Brew stack with your other elixir effect?
Nope. it overwrites. its also an “elixir”.
The advantage is the additional XP )15% vs 8%) as mentioned ablove AND its free, not costing any resources to make.
It also says it increases the drop rates of materials.
So I use gileons and opals of torment if I am in a helltide or nightmare dungeon for the extra materials.
I use a regular elixir of speed and lucky hit in pits and hordes.
Diablo-like is paying more for 1 cosmetic than the actual game itself.

Valid points. I am happy to report that using Gileon’s Brew enabled me to beat Pit 47 for the first time within the time limits. I’m slowly crawling my way up to beating level 50.
