What will happen to the extra elixirs if I convert a 100 charge barrel? Will the excess I don't have room in my pack for drop to the ground?

A barrel will convert into bottles.
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.

say about these changes what you want, but they seem to be livelike.

And this makes existing barrels at least not toally useless, as you can exchange them into bottles, put them into your vault and exchange bottle per bottle against pots when needed. At least the exchange npc is right at the porter.

No conversion should take place if your inventory cannot hold enough slots. Barrels convert to bottles (maximum 10 from 1 barrel) and bottles convert to elixirs (maximum 10). At any given exchange, you need only 10 slots maximum and as few as 1 (if only e charge remains)

The NPC will exist as long as barrels are in the game.

Multiple Charge Potions is 1.85 change.
It's so amazing to see that Mythic takes so long times to realize that having only 1 charge in a potion is a bad game design choice.

Whats so amazing about it? Players requested it as they have heard of EU players having barrels. It was Mythics compromise.

Goa added barrel/bottle in 2005.
Non euro players had to wait september 2006. Mythic takes 1 year to realize that this change is a wonderfull idea, and that their damned one charge potions are... how do you say that in english... pain in the ass ?
One year seems really amazing to me. It's so obvious that a 1 charge item like this is an error in game design. Maybe at start it was a technical limit, but apparently not so much according to goa.

If Mythic would have agreed with Goa then there would have been 100 charge barrels in US too.
