"Chef Inspiration will receive a 15% experience bonus, a 10% bonus to assembly and experimentation, and a 2% bonus to resource quality when crafting food type items. "
Forgive me if this has been discussed before, since I only slightly followed this discussion pre-patch. If I remember correctly,the discussioncentered around the bonus to resource quality.
If there is a 10% bonus to experimentation and someone has skill tapes with +120, then they'll get +12 more, reaching +132 in experimentation. Which divides out to 13 points. Also, 10 point chefs will now be able to be 11 point chefs. Does it work like that, or is the +25 add-on the cap? And if so, that means that chefs really only need to find +10 in skill tapes, bringing their total to +110, whereupon dancer buffs give them +11, equally to +121 and 12 points.
??? Am I missing something here?

I just wandered over here from the other crafter forums, so, even though I'm not a chef, I believe I can answer this....
The 10% bonus to assembly and experimentation will just improve the results or "roll" when determining if you will get a great or amazing result. It does not give you an additional +10 mod like attachments would, so... 13 points would not be possible.

The bonuses to assembly and experimentation have always (?) been included in the entertainer inspiration buff. They work exactly like the bonuses from Pyollean Cake, Bespin port and FS bonuses: better odds for a "great" or "amazing" success on assembly/experimentation, but not more experimentation points.

In more simple words
It improves your experimentation roll, so you're a bit more likely to hit that Amazing Success, rather than a Good Success.
Doesn't not increase points you have to experiment with. Doesn't change the +25 cap you can get from CAs, so +12 is the cap for experimentation points.

OK, today somewhere, somehow, I saw someone with "13 point chef" in their siggy. I know I saw that because I'd already come here and wrote this up. But what you're saying makes sense, experimentation in the form of being able to get more amazing successes out of experimentation, not more experimentation points.
Is this person also mistaken, or is 13 point chef possible with a certain one of the races? I've never heard of it before.

It is possible to be a human 14 pt. Artisan and get 14 points for artisan foods. I know I'm one.

its just a 10% increase in success to experimentation, like bespin port.
