Hello, fellow alchemists!
These days I was leveling at 3i using Venom Bomb and noticed that sometimes I used the skill but no items were consumed. The battle log looks like normal, except there's no "used <poison bomb>" before the skill, and I checked my inventory and confirmed that indeed no items were used. I couldn't find a pattern, it seems random.
Has this happened to you too? Do you think it's a bug, or maybe a hidden skill effect?

I noticed my kill sticks have lasted longer than usual as well. I guess this is probably why.

What i see more is an item being used even if skill failed to cast due to mob death T.T

I have actually seen both occur randomly.
Sometimes an item is consumed even if the mob dies before you finish casing the next spell and sometimes a item is not consumed even though your spamming spells to kill groups of mobs quickly.
I just assumed it was due to sever lag. Or Maybe a side effect of speed hackers.
I'm sure if you report it as a bug the devs will just say "everything is fine" because technically the code is correct.

Its an effect of the levels of the skills. Looking at all my alchemists skills,certain skills say at the end of the description (meteor and bloom are the only skills to say it,but ill assume it applies to the other skills as well) "Damage and consumption depend on Lv" so ill assume the higher the lvl your skills, the less items it consumes. With lv 3/4 skills i can usually make a stack of items last for 200 or more kills.

With lv 3/4 skills i can usually make a stack of items last for 200 or more kills. Originally it would consume more items they higher the skill level. For example lv1 used 1, level 2 used 2, and level 3 used 3. Then they decided it was too much and released an update that set it to 1 regardless of the skill level as long as you had the correct number in your inventory for the skill level. They may have done as you said but that's not what they said they did.

Undyne initially the skills used a nr. of items equal to the skill lvl, but after that they changed it so they use only 1 item no matter the skill lvl. A.F.A.I.K the skill descriptions didn't change together with the skills. Maybe they added a hidden effect like you describe, which would also fit the same skill descriptions.

all i can say is thats its helpful and wasteful at times
helpful --- cause u save a catalyst
wasteful -- cause sometimes it still use a catalyst even though it says "failed to activate skill"
