Thread: +25 Stat Buff cap and Fizz Pudding...

TH has stated many times that the maximum buff allowed to a player's stats is +25 (from skilltapes, BE cloth, loot items, etc.).


So how does this relate to Fizz Pudding (+30-45 Dodge) and Thakitillo (+30-50 Knockdown Defense) ?


Is half of the buff wasted ? Am I missing something ?


Along the same lines, it would then be pointless for someone wearing a +19 Maskscent shirt to go and buy the highest-rated Jawa Beer (+12 Maskscent), because half of that buff would be wasted too...


Please, please Dev's, the skilltape/stat buffs issue needs a "Friday Feature" soon ! If people using existing tape/armor buff items use food and see very little or no difference in performance, this couldstart creating the impressionthat the new foods DON'T WORK !

Me and a friend where testing a thakitillo with 72 def vs knockdown, all i can say is that it worked damn well, and if you look a the fizz pudding it says it increases % of dodge, not the actual adding Dodge stats. Havent gotten to test the fizz pudding yet, but im sure they work eccellent

I was using the values listed on SciGuy's excellent food chart, and the Thakatillo stats were not shown as a %, but as a hard number. My apologies if that is supposed to be a %.



However, my question remains: "Howcan the new foods buff your abilitystats by more than +25 ?"


Is it a different category of buff ? Will it stack with clothing buffs, or will it override them ?

It looks to me like the food will actually increase over the +25. I know the stats show up on the mod screen.

Sure, it shows up on the mod screen, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything... I can make you a +38 stun defense shirt, and it will show up as +38 in your mods, but it has been REPEATEDLY stated in many threads on these Forums that mods are capped at +25.


So u may be getting a benefit, but perhaps it is only +25's worth ?

Would be nice if TH or JustG posted on this issue, aswell as the bugs - acc to TH in a post a couple of days ago, there arent any real issues with the chef revamp....

I replied about Barrels & vercupti in particular, but didn't get a response

When I saw the new buffs, this is one of the first questions I asked. Food can give a bonus higher than +25 because it is a temporary bonus, as opposed to tailor clothing which last for a long time. I know somebody who was able to use a bivoli tempari and his +25 heal treatment doctors robes together for much greater results.

Yeah i used some be enhanced bivoli to get +35 wound treatment which resulted in a 4200 health buff with 900 rated packs



These skill mods add to your base stats not your modified ones. For instance if your you have +100 wound treatment and +25 wound treatment clothings your skill mod is listed as +100/+125. After taking the skill mod food that is +35 wound treatment it reads. +135/+160.

Thanks for clarifying that, SirVimes.


So the food buffs stack with the skilltapes/armor enhancements/clothing buffs ?


W0000t !

and on a totally off topic note, Jihadic's sig just gave me a good laugh :

I tried that fizz pudding and the stats were around 82% or something to dodge (used a medium additive to nutrition)... I'm a master Fencer as well so i thought this would be a great food for my class. Well i got a master rifleman/TKM to duel me. I didn't notice much of a difference... i think i dodged once more then usual.

I also tried the Thakitillo at about +44 to def vs. knockdown. TKM's could not knock me down... i think he finally got me after 15-20 attempts so i was very happy with that stuff.
