I thought I might share my experience with making pet foods, to give you the FYI before you make it.

I made:

Blap Biscuit +1240 Health 46m 22fill
Pastbread +1339 Action 44m43s 22fill

One would think that these are great. High buff, low fill. Any comparable food for players that gives HAM-bar buffs allows multiple-buffs. Oh, the possibilites! Quadruple buff your pet!? Buff all three bars at once?! Send a kaadu up against a rancor?

Nope. Nope. Nope!

You can use special pet food only once per hour, if you keep it out. You can feed multiple times only if you store/re-call it.

I gave some out, and a few people bought it when I first made it, but no one has come back for more. I had to actually go out and buy myself a CL10 pet to test the food and figure out how the food worked. I found that it was mostly useless.

I used to be a Creature Handler at one time, and I can't really think of a good use for this stuff. Maybe grinding XP on beginner mobs outside NPC cities using baby pets, but even then, the pets get hit in all three HAM bars, so the food won't even slow down the damage by much. I feel bad for having sold it at all.

Sweesonberry rolls aren't too bad, especialy for starting CHs. With a heavy additive, you can get these to +1150 or so to all three bars for 40m or so. Handy for using a low-level pet to get a small CH xp bump.


I suppose the other ones might have an occasional use if you have a pet with a really low stat in one bar (the single-stat pet buffs have higher buff numbers, although the fact that they can take smaller additives might counteract that).


Experimenting Filling is pointless on these, since as you found a pet can only have one food buff on it at a time.


Out of curiousity, do those numbers include additives? I've been thinking of doing an update to the food min/max ranges on my food chart, and the buffs you gave indicate that the numbers I have for Blap and Pastebread are out of whack.

You have a good point about Sweesonberry Rolls. The Pastebread that I have right now might be useful as an ingredient for the Rolls. But, alas, I'd rather use the TWO bantha butter for Smuggler's Delight.

Regarding your question, I used additives (+56 MSN's) for both.
