Last night I did a raide on the BE correspondent's stash, and did some quick testing with additives.


I made vayerbock with the following ingredients:


Greens 864/670/640/180


Fungi 965/550/503/51


Scaley Hide 785/10/27/736


Obviously, not the best ingredients.


First I did one without any additives. For all three I put my experimenting points in nutrition and filling.



  • Filling: 21

  • Mod: Block +9.3

  • Duration: 13m48s

  • Quantity: 6

Then i did one with a medium additive



  • Filling: 21

  • Mod: Block +18.693

  • Duration: 13m0s

  • Quantity: 6

Then I did one with a heavy additive



  • Filling: 21

  • Mod: Block +22.412998

  • Duration: 13m0s

  • Quantity: 6

See thatdoesnt look particularly bad to me! Better materials still and people'll lap this stuff up. I just don't get this whole 'it's a bust' thing. it's good, just needs tweaks, give it a chance. I'll be gutted if they pull the whole idea of a revamp (not that they will) and we get nothing.

First question is what do YOU think about the change Vimes?

It looks as if medium is the way to go as far as results/resources. Not bad at all, a 100% improvement on the medium. If this were 100% improvement on filling to or on duration, then enhancements IS the way to go with the new patch. Im going to have to become a BE's best friend

I still want to know how this worked. Did your un-experimented values go way up? Did the buff just magically improve?

Just wondering.

Nice, what kind of tissue quality were the additives made from? And do you know whether BE's have a single experimentation category (something like "Effectiveness"), multiples (although with each tissue focused on one of our experimentation categories, I'm not sure what they'd be) or (shudder) no experimentation available?


It looks like a medium doublesthe nutrition, and heavy is around 2.5x. Were you able to get your hands on any light tissues (I'll bet they'd give a 1.5 multiplier). And what about filling? Would a medium filling tissue cut a food's filling in half? And Ezran brings up a good point, if the additive is simply adding to your experimentation percentage, we'd still be limited to the base ranges (although easier to get higher in them since the additive would require spending less experimentation points in that category) and probably capped on the maximum percentage based on resource stats.


And who's the BE you raided so I can play with this myself on TC without pestering you?

Feel like I'm talking to someone who just opened there jedi slot.

Who do you train with? Where'd you get a light sabre? How well does it work?.....

When I created the heavy additive drink, the buff started at 18, and I was able to experiment up to 22. The additive increased the base number I was experimenting on.


Jerecki...i am not ignoring your question, I just need time to write an answer.

Looks like they work and that is all I can ask for.

Yes 22% looks good, but is it sellable? I dont remember what the cost of the heavy is, but I know it requires meats, I could barely get anyone to feed me meats paying 15CPU. Is the cost of meats going to make the crate costs so high that no one will want them? Also 22% is a nice number, but is that bonus actually noticable in combat? if not is anyone going to be willing to pay 50-100k for a crate (again dont knwo what the cost is but anything with meats is going to be expensive)

Keep in mind some of the resources I had access to were horrible. Off the top of my head, I think one of the key ingredients in the heavy filling had and oq of 14. The formula for the be additives is 33% each of oq, flavor, and pe so a stat of 14 really brings it down.
