I have to say though that is still sucks if you compare it too how much damage a player can do to another player.


A Novice Riflewith luck cando 1000 points of damage to another player in 1 shot with an OK laser rifle (nothing special). This makes a buff that only boosts for 300 pts not as useful and actually just plain neglegible even if they ate more than 1.


I went ahead and asked my boyfriend who is a Novice Rifleman with Headshot 2. And he explained to me that he can, with luck, do a lot more damage than our foods can buff, and he says even though it is luck it does happen frequently. He said that food would be great for going up against creatures because their attack damage isn't as high (for most creatures), but for PVP he would take a Enhancement Pack over a stack of food. The Enhancement Packs he receives from our Surgeon friends boost his Action and Health by up to 1500 and last about an hour and a half.

I take back everything I said... I just posted another thread, have a look. Chef buffs aren't just bad, some of them are bugged/broken.

I've been trying out some stuff with cooking IV, though I'm in a bit of a fix for really good ingredients(I rarely get to experiment more than 40-50%), but the results do look sort of promising, and would appear to show that higher level stuff is better(though base stats are worse).


Granylin juice: brought up from **edit**ty to about +200/+50 for 5 minutes.


Durindfire: +255 mind and +60 health for 4 minutes, with 5 charges. Yes, that isn't a typo, the health became positive... Another interesting thing was, once I got +255 mind(at about 35% experimentation) it didn't rise, though the health bonus kept going up. So it'd seem lower tier buffs are capped fairly low.


Ice blaster: (really bad ingredients... only one evergreen soft wood on planet, and it is REALLY bad)... +160 willpower, 5 minutes. Only 1 charge. I'd like to see how it was with better ingredients...


I'm going to post a bunch more updates once I factory produce a couple of crates of aludian pu36... I need to get some harvesters for radioactives up first though...

I forgot to mention, remember you can fit 2 foods and 2 drinks at a time... and supposedly with flavor experimentation you can fit a lot more... so once the effects stack together, you can really become quite strong for a short period of time.
