I hit master chef this weekend. When I am using my food/chem crafting tool near a food/chem station, neither breath of heaven nor fishak shows up on the menu. I had two other master chefs try this, and neither is on the list? Can anyone test this out, by using their tool near a station?

Are you sure it was a private food/chem station?

They both just hit master chef, just like me, and don't know what type of station is needed. Are you saying that a private station is needed, and a public one cannot be used? If so, are there different types of private stations used to make the master buffs? Thanks.

You need a Private Food and Chemical crafting station that is crafted OR a droid with a food & chem station in it.

The stations that are in cities will not do, but those players place in player cities will, as they are crafted.

Grr, chef grinders..

Anyhow, yes, private crafting stations [the kind you can buy and drop in your house] are best, period. Each one has a rating to it [under /examine] that shows it's efficiency bonus, the higher the better. The one +30 and better tend to be rare and pricy, though. Private ones will show all the schematics you can make in their respective item type.

The public ones are good, but not as good. Save some creds and grab one, you'll be happy you did.

Thanks for the info.

Another thing you might want to look at is the crafting station itself.

I bought a high rating food and chem station months ago for a PA building, then when I hit Master Chef a couple of weeks ago, I tried to use the station with my crafting tool, and it wouldn't bring up any schematics that required a food and chem tool ! (I wasn't outside the radius either).

When I went to a friends hosue and used his station it worked fine! veeery weird.

If you place stations right next to each other, you only get the benifit of the one you are closest to. So if you have a general station right next to it, you might be standing in the wrong place. If that isnt it, you need to /bug it, it's broken.

hehe....AMEN.

I am frequently ASTONISHED, by the questions I get from "Master" Chefs.

Considering that those are master chef recipes, it shouldn't be too astonishing. I am sure there was a first time you made your master chef recipes, Saitek. If I'd asked a question about how to make Bivoli Tempari, I'd see your point.

How pricey? Are we talking 100,000... 500,000.... over a million?

1) I didn't have an issue with a personalized Crafting station.

2) I DO get questions about low level foods from "Master" Chefs.

It'll depend on your server and the individual architect, but probably 50-75k, maybe a bit higher. I doubt you'll have to spend more than 100k.
