On the test center, aircakes mess up constitution and focus (I think....might be willpower.) Of course, they only mess it up a small amount.

Unfortunately the problem scales with the buffs

You know why? Because it effects someone besides chefs. I guarantee that if it was just chefs that were bugged we'd have to wait for the next big patch to get it fixed.







Actually, I think it was because it was caught early enough on the test center. I think with the stack bug, what took so long is trying to find exactly what was causing the problem.


This one will go away very soon.

My unscientific testing yesterday went as follows: 2 Tat Sunburns, 2 Fire Stew, when buffs wore off I had 150/500 stamina and willpower (no wounds), which did not change. However, I didn't notice any signifigant drop in regen rates, does anyone know for sure this isn't just a UI display error, at least on some stats?

It's not a display bug. This is also happening with Doctor buffs. Just to confirm it isn't a display bug, some foods when they wear off INCAP you if your Normal HAM stat is not high enough.

I'm worse off than all of you O.o


I usually use breath of heaven and ryshcate at the same time.... when they wore off, my str, quick, focus were all down to 150 and sitting there. Can't use anything that costs ham without having to heal alot (which also costs much more mind) and then sitting to regen mind... or logging in and out. Better for me to not use foods right now.

I do the same thing BoH + ryshcate. But what I've noticed since the new hotfix is that the secondary stats DO NOT STACK. The BoH will do +500, but when i eat the ryshcate, it increases the max value, but not the actual value. I'll take some Muhon Gold on top of it, and my Willpower/Focus does not go up, but my mind does.

As it stands right now, my character is completely useless when it comes to combat, therefore, making the game useless until this is fixed.

I have the same bug, all my mind foods do not buff current 2ndary stats (to the left)instead, they buff the maximum stat (to the right) but they will buff the mind pool. Breath of Heaven, glazed glucose and vercupti of agazza. This also occurs with muon gold.

I have a hunch as to what is causing this, it maybe cause i have doc buffs on. A friend ate their foods and it worked fine.

The problem arises whether buffed or not.

If the food buffs 300 willpower, and you have 500/500 you SHOULD get 800/800.

However, you get 500/800.
As it is a secondary stat, these do not regenerate, and can not be healed as it sint wounds.
Now, when the buff drops, it removes the 300 from both the stat level and the max, so it takes off 300/300, giving you 200/500.
Again, this will not regenerate naturally

Scratch that

Didnt realise my quick was still buffed

I just tested after that buff dropped, and yes, it buffed fine. So it IS a problem of food & drink compatability with enhancement packs & entertainer buffs.

Ok was testing this awhile.


Someone mentioned if you take one food or drink...wait till it finishes then take another you are fine.


This is correct. You can take 1 food charge or 1 drink let it drop, then take another.


If you add 2 buffs, by mixing food and drink or 2 food, your stats get screwed.



Now...this also works with any enhancers.


For example...doctor buffs.../powerboost for TK.


If you use doc buffs...then take ANY food, your buffs seem to screw up (harder to notice sometimes with doc buffs).


If you powerboost as a TK (I am a master chef and TK) then take any food...there goes your stats.


It seems that using any 2 buffs at same time FUBAR your stats.


These are my tests, hope this helps to solve something. Sorry if this is already known.
