Thread: Fastes way to master chef?
Well, I figured out how to grind chef under 12 hours (I did it in 11 hours 57 mins). Now some master crafters can see it but most will go.. yeah right.. LIAR!!... well I will do the math FOR you...
Grind the new Ithorian Mist at 252 xp each craft on pratice mode.
This is the fastest way I am sure but you will need some supplies...
10k Wheat (Soypro)
10k Vegetables (Soypro)
45k gemstone (small drinks)
45k Wheat (Alcohol)
150k Wheat (Ithorian Mist)
100k Water (Ithorian Mist)
2-8 factories (I used 4)
Need to make 4 schematics(1,000) of small drink and 4 schematics(1,000) of alcohol.
I made all 8 schematics and had 4 factories set up. Put 2 of each in there before I logged. When I came back on I put the other 4 in the factories and grapped some small drinks and alcohol crates.
First you want to grind Soypro till you get to Mixology II. Make the item for 80xp each and then eat it for another 40xp. Since its a component, it has a filling of zero, so you don't have to worry about using up stomach space. Once you get Mixology II switch over to Ithorian Mist to get Master Chef. I find this the fastest way. Some do not like using parts (small drinks and alcohol in Ithorian Mist) so they can do Synthsteak it gives 180 xp a craft on non-practice mode and takes 20 vegetables 20 cereal and 5 hide. I don't like the hide because I do not have any fighting professions and I have 56 ER13 harvestors to get any resources I need for grinding 
There is 819200 xp total to craft in chef. At 252 xp a craft you have to do 3251 crafts total. 819200 / 242 = 3250.79
I have a custom macro where it takes 8 seconds a craft. 3251 x 8 = 26008secs / 60 = 433.46mins / 60 = 7.22hours
So that is 7.22 hours of crafting to get to chef. But you have to craft Soypro till you get to Mixology II so that takes little more time and you have to find chef trainers and keep making runs to the factories to get more crates because you can't carry all the crates on you.
I will double check this information on this later. There is always something a person forgets or types wrong.
