Thread: New Patch Notes! Chef is Now Worthless
I see plenty of Master Dancers in the busy cantinas, usually atleast 1 there.
Also did any of you guys read the notes on factory limits?
They are limiting them to a run of 100, that makes it insanely difficult to produce Breath of Heaven.
I was running schematics of 600 alcohol in order to make 100 BoH.
I'm not a Chef, but I've started following your woes recently, as my 2 professions, merchant and tailor, appear to have the same low priority that Chefs do. I noticed the patch notes didn't include you guys, so I thought I'd hop on the Chef forum and see how everyone was taking it. Hope you guys get some help in the near future, and hang in there!

>who basicly get buffs as a fun feature
Please keep in mind that this feature is only for Masters ! And Masters don't play or dance with Joe AFK Musician or Jane AFK Dancer at the cantina next door. Up to now, the Buff from entertainers was non-existant. Who stays 5 minutes for a 10 minute buff that won't even last to your mission target ? No one. I'm not sure if it's unbalanced now, time will tell.
While we wait, come over to the entertainer forum and help us nerf AFK musicians and dancers... less dancers, less bufs, right
yes and WE ARE MASTER CHEFS
and we didnt AFK to master

This is an upcoming change on TC. The change was made because this is what schematics were always supposed to be limited to--there is a bug that lets you put in a value larger than 100 right now.
I see some negative reaction to this change. How impactful is it? What is a reasonable limit in your mind?
I'll state up front that there may be DB reasons why we don't want a huge number here, so I will have to check on whether changing it is feasible at all.

Investigating now.
This isn't a done deal.
, but I have only two or 3 regulars and 2 of them are buying my PA reduced to cost items. Looking at this obviously something is wrong.
Honestly I would much rather use some good food and drinks to buff myself than use an entertainer buff or spice. Problem with food right now though, is that after I log out and come back the next morning, the food is unusable, I select "eat" or "drink" and it just doesn't work. I have to destroy it and buy/make a new batch for it to work. That's the only thing keeping me from using large amounts of food at the moment.
As soon as this is fixed I'll need a chef on Valcyn to make me crates of food.
I hope you guys hang in there, chefs are some of the most dedicated people to their profession and I hope something is done to help you guys.
Well... if it makes any difference, I sure as heck dont plan on leaving the Chef line.. even if it does go down.. hehe, if not for the sheer thrill of actually playing a game knowing "hey... theres food, theres water.. lets party"
That, or you could always resort to the artisan firework display... heavens smile upon those random.. weird... people.. lol

Yeah no kidding. I'm enough behind on BOH as it is. And with a lot of food requiring meat that I can't seem to get in batches over 1-2k, I spend most of my time now babysitting my factories as it is. Being able to run only 1 full crate of BOH at a time, or 2 of the many others that require 2 components, is really painful.
