Thread: Least-painful grinding...
On-hand at the moment, is somewhere near 100k misc water, 45k cereals, 50k tubers,50kfungus,50k flower-fruit, HUGE amount of other fruit,bout 20k misc animal meats, and 10k carnivore meats.
Novice Chef.
Where do I begin?
Wastril Bread.. you will learn to hate all breads both real and virtual
get entrees 1
Stewed Gwouch.. you will learn to hate all stews both real and virtual
get mixology 2
Ithorian Mist.. you will learn to love this item for its wonderful xp.. (stock up on corn) this is your grinder until you (a) give up or (b) become master
run Wastril Bread
gotoMixology II
run Ithorian Mist
goto Master
What's better; go for the stew or grind the Wastril bread until I get the mist? What resources do I need for the two of them?

I skill up using Kiwik Clusjo Swirl in the Desserts III line. Uses 40 berries, 20 fruit and 20 water. The reason I use it over Ithorian Mist is I only need to harvest two different resources (berries and water) instead of three (corn, wheat and water). Before that I did Stewed Gwouch and before that Wastril Bread.

Wastril Bread - 35 cereal10 fruit (only gives 70exp)
Stewed Gwouch - 30 organic 20 water
Ahhh yes...the joys of grinding. The day I made master I spent over 90k in resources ( no good harvest spots where I was) and 8 hrs straight grinding to finish the last couple boxes. It hurt, and I wanted to quit OH so many times but I used both
--Ithorian Mist and Kiwik Clu. Swirl reason being thru out the day I would find ingreds for Both those things at good prices on the bazaar and make whichever I had the resources for. They both gave me 178xp ( pract) I resorted to practicing every time I ground ( grinded..grindeded ??) since those few extra pts definitely add up when you are making several hundred items.(shudders at the thought of having wasted good resources just to grind)

Another alternative is to go:
Wastril -> Mix 1
Deuterium Pyro -> Mix 2
Ithorian Mist -> Everything else.
Deutrium Pyrorequires 15 eachRice, Reactive Gas, Mineral (XP output nearly comprable to stewed gwouch and you go up Mix earlier). Rice is available on any starting planet. Mineral is easy. Reactive Gas will be a bit flakey, but doable.
