Spice is something Ive never used before but with the end of food stacking I thought I'd buy a crate of Neutron Pixie along with some smugglers delight that has a spice down time reduction rating of 99. I figured with the use of Smugglers Delight I'd be able to pretty much stay on pixie during a fight, using them one after the other and being careful through the withdrawal.
The first time I took the Pixie I forgot to take my food and ended up with awithdrawal of about a minute. I took another pixie straight after and this time remembered my food. However when the Pixie run out I had awithdrawal of 50 mins!!?!
50 mins!? What I need to know is if that is a bug or for real? Is there something I dont know about using spice or is that some sort of bug with the food I took?

smuggler's delight is bugged.
though it does seem fitting that "smuggler's delight" would be the equivalent of an hour of vomiting...

Thank you for the reply, thast great. I was wondering if taking so many in such a short space of time would increase the downtime after each pixie.
Im thinking spice is the way to go now then. +20% to health, health regen and action regen is great and after just a minute you can take another.

Well the way Smuggler's delight used to work before CU you still couldn't do what you wanted. The effect of smuggler's delight lasted for about an hour and would only affect the next spice you took and wouldn't affect any other spices even if taken before the effect of delight ended. Thus you could only reduce the downer on 1 spice per hour.
It seems the bug switched the effects.
Smuggler's delight isn't really needed anyway. Pre-CU downer was 3+minutes, Post-CU it's 30 seconds.

I didn't know about smuggler's delight being bugged until I used it along with a pixie in the middle of a VERY crowded Geo cave, and when the downer came on, it showed 30+ minutes and that was NOT a good time to have that happen with my low health, lack of regen and getting beat down by Kwis and Klikniks. LOL, funny though I made it out alive as the rest of my group died and cloned.

Mine happened while I was in the Krayt Graveyard taking on krayts with a group. It was the first time I had tried it and was waiting for the Pixie to wear off so I could enjoy a 5 second withdrawal.
Oh my God! 50 minutes, needless to say everyone laughed. Even worse is the fact that It wouldnt let me take any food or drink either.
