Chef Archive

I don't understand the purpose of food in game. I have ate 3 things, and the food bar on my char sheet is full, but it never goes down and I don't get any benifit from it that i can see.

To all the chefs, why should i buy what you are making?

food buffs your stats. look/examine the food you eat.

some can give you more health, action, mind pool... and some can give you a faster regeneration time.

it is very helpful to all classes(when artisans are surveying, when medics heal, when hunters go out of town etc...)

also when your missing some stat points (when your fully healed and theres still a couple points missing..) eating food will bring those points back.

to keep your stats up and give ya boosts. like health. and action

to eat stuff is good.

Food + Drink can do all sorts of enhancements. Your health, Action and Mind stats is only some of the benefits. For a complete list, please read this. Food can make doctors buff better, people aim better, reduce downers (now confirmed as working!) and a whole lot more. Almost anything you can do in the game, good (when eaten at the right time) can enhance it

And now I see the timestamps of the original posts.. Well at least this might show anyone new to foods the benefits

I am a mix of Ranger/Commando and let me tell you food is very beneficial. I use the Veghash to boost my creature harvest total even higher, Graylin Juice for better hits on the creatures, and my Brandy to keep the mind nice and sharp. I feel it gives me an edge or keeps me in the fight longer. I almost forgot when mind is about to die a quick shot of blue milk is always nice.
