Reduced the duration of Major Expedition granted from potions, to be more in line with other powerful Major buffs such as Major Vitality.

''Developer Comment: Due to the pass on mobility, we wanted to ensure you couldn't readily keep this buff active 100% without spending more attention to it. Due to the old duration of this buff from potions, these were a direct conflict with that vision.''
