Antifire Potion

While the antifire potion is a miraculous thing and one of the most useful items on Ashenfall, it does have a flaw. It can be hard to know when its effect wears off. Knowing that you are protected, or not protected, while standing in front of a dragon is something of a problem.

One solution is to bring someone with you. Get them to count while you fight a dragon. They can give you a happy thumbs-up while protected and a sad thumbs-down when you're not.

Of course, they probably need antifire if they're going to assume that role. Which means a third party to give the second party a thumbs-up or thumbs-down. Yeah, we see the flaw in the plan.
