How the hell can I use potions?

I can't drag potions to the pockets, I can't meditate yet I got 4 swallow potions I need to use because of a completely unfair fight against 6 enemies.

WTF can I do? I dont stand a chance, barely heal at all and there are 2 "big" assholes + 4 other to kill.

Relax, press "Ctrl" and then press the middle Icon. It takes you to meditation. Through that you can use potions. They generally last from 5 - 10 mins real time.

Its awesome: What a step up from the original.... sucks now:"!!

Watch the word choice........

The only way to use potions is in meditation. So if you're in an area where you can't do that try other tactics to kill'em.

Signs - they all have their use!

Traps - powerful if you have the time to set up

Bombs - helpful, almost instant

Use terrain, and KEEP MOVING. You can't let them surround you! Dodge, roll, run! Take the weak ones out first. Use the Alt tab to lock on to enemies.

And if all fails, go to gameplay options and do it on Easy.

Cant meditate to use potions, game wont let me.

Alt+Click, I think

you don't want to press alt+tab, its not fun in middle of combat :P

Didn't try Alt+click, just watched which enemy was highlighted with the dot, and pressed Alt so it stayed on him.

Depending on where you are, you sometimes just need to backtrack a little to find a place where you can meditate - in the prologue, for example, I could meditate in the outside cliffside graveyard but not in the foyer room next to it.

There must be a pesky fly circling arround the foyer. Those things are terrible when you try to meditate!
