-Quote of the Friday Feature-:
Breath of Heaven is a good example of a stat mod food that has improved. With max experimentation in every category and no bio-engineer tissue, the old (pre-patch) item looked something like this:
Breath of Heaven (Max Experimentation)
Strength, Quickness, Focus
+450 for 12 minutes
Yield 10, Filling 60

Uhhhmmm,....
To my knowledge you couldn't apply bio-engineer tissues to drinks pre-patch, don't know if even after.
But even more surprising the stats. Most of us got better results without full experimentation...
Did no one ever tell the development team, that it is possible to use any alcohol (e.g. Aludium pu36) in any alcohol slot to recieve better results?
I know the new BoH got re-revamped allready, but nevertheless the Friday Feature lists very bad examples, maybe it could get changed.
And as this one is related:
Can we please get the name of aludium pu36 (and it's grafic) moved to the one alcohol that remains? Why? It's one of the items with a relation to the movies and even a longer story. To just change the name and the graphic should be quite easy, that's why I suggest it.

Marvin the Martian
I was looking through the Episode 2 Visual Dictionary today (I waited til after I saw the movie), and noticed something kinda funny that I don't think many people would get, let alone notice. On page 22 (the pages on the nightclub), there is a picture of many vials and bottles and such from the bar. One of the captions is pointing to a vial and is labeled "Aludium pu-36." There was a Looney Tune cartoon directed by the late Chuck Jones in 1958 called "Hare-way to the Stars" in which Bugs Bunny thwarts Marvin the Martian's plans to blow up the Earth with his "Aludium pu-36 Explosive Space Modulator," which looks suspiciously like a stick of dynamite. Looks like there's martians in the Star Wars galaxy as well. First E.T. in the senate, now this. (Dexter Jettster's Laboratory)

I like you're idea on replacing the alcohol name and graphic. Although isn't it aludian in-game? I can never keep it straight. It's possible that a future plan for chefs (maybe in an expansion or a patch or two down the road) is to include advanced components similar to what Stims have, which aludian / aludium would fit nicely into.
As for the BoH stats, it's been too long since I've done a batch. I poked around past threads and I saw stats of +560, 6m, 19 dose stack for alu-enhanced BoH. I'm not sure whether we'll be seeing more"d00D, the new B0H suxxors, cya!" or "Are those numbers right?" emails. I hope they go in and update both the old stats (since few people who use BoH on a regular basis are going to accept that as "max experimentation"), and the new stats (assuming the numbers Ezran was seeing last night aren't a fluke of the code) so that people will see that new = better.

Yeah when I read that feature I about fell out of my chair. "max experimentation" what does that mean exactly? all 10 points used? 12 points used? 100% in all 3 bars? Still.... I normally get 450+ with 13 charges. (from teh best I remember) Keep in mind fellow chefs, that this is coming from the DEVs, the guys that are revamping OUR class. Should we be scared because theyDONT HAVE A CLUE about chefs?
Ok ok , so we get BE additives, but even with the best BE addivive,, lets say we triple the usages,, so that puts us at 9 charges. Still 5 less than what I get now with a whoooping 50 more buff. Added cost of meat is probably going to be far more then the cost of thecurrent factory time. Unless we no longer even need 6 alcohol. Plus you can not redrink when your buff wears off. So let say we still charge 100k for BOH Prepatch and post patch. prepatch costroughly 300 credits per usage, post patch roughly 450 credits per usage. Hmm I would stick with the old BoH.
Sorry, but C3PO if your going to postpropoganda for the chef revamp, please make sure you know what your talking about. That Friday Featurereally makes the DEVs look like they dont have a clue.

just got master chef today...made some aludiums(sp?) the night before and got 615 9 charge and 525 13 charge using alcohols. I'm wondering if i should just make a crap ton of these for myself along with the 465 9 charge ryschates i made. I mean a 1200 boh would be nice, but i dont want to think about how much youll have to get, and what the cost would be, to get the additives from a bio-engineer. my 2 pennies.

Thinking of my own results in the past, as well as what people have posted here, I don't think many of us ever experimented duration to 12 minutes. Maybe if we did, we would have buff amount and stack size similar to what they listed there. My stack sizes are never under 16, and my buff is never under 520, but I also never have a duration of over 10 minutes. /shrug

They are adjusting numbers pretty quickly. What is true today may not be true tomorrow...at least until it goes live.
