Version 3.0.0 addresses how the use of attribute potions (e.g., potion of Dx+2) is counted toward the Rule of 5 on page B-120. This should be on page 15, where the Rule of 5 is discussed.

A further clarification is needed as to what happens when a duplicate potion is drunk in the same day. Potions affecting the *same* attribute are non-cumulative and *replace* the earlier potion, so that after drinking a potion of St+2, drinking a potion of St+3 would confer a total of St+3. Subsequently drinking a potion of St+1 would then drop benefits to a total of St+1. This allows flexibility for a character to adjust his or her attributes up or down as needed. Not sure why this helps - but a cancellation potion and even negative bonus potions might also be useful. Maybe.
