Consumable

From Guild Wars Wiki

A consumable is any item that has a specific effect when used. All consumable items require the player to double-click on it for activation. Regular consumables are stackable and disappear after one use. Those with multiple uses are non-stackable, such as kits. There are even items with unlimited uses, such as the everlasting tonics.

Consumables cannot be used in PvP.

[edit] Types

Most consumables can be classified dependant on effect:

• Alcohol - they cause drunkness, which can contribute towards the Drunkard title
• Dye - used to change the color appearance of specific items, normally weapons or armor.
• Festive items - they usually create a visible animation on use and add points towards the Party Animal title.
  • Tonics - they change the appearance of the character to a tonic-specific model.
• Kits - they serve different purposes affecting other items, usually identification and salvage.
• Presents - they contain one of several things dependant on consumable, such as items, gold or even skill effects that is chosen at random.
• Scrolls - they create a Party Bonus that increases the experience gained per kill.
• Skill tomes - they can be used to learn unlocked class-specific skills dependant on type.
• Summoning stones - they summon an ally for the party.
• Sweets - they most often cause a speed boost in towns or outposts and add point towards the Sweet Tooth title.
