Thread: New Buff System works in mysterious ways.
It's a very small buff, so I would personally expect it to affect things differently depending on the stats and what you're making.
For example - used my usual recipe on Pikatta pie, no change, 54/24m16s with an 87 additive (yes I know, what a lowly additive!) and get all the same usual stats. Used the other fruit I would rather use which normally only gives me 53/24m32s and it gives me 54/24m32s. So, at least for me, I'd expect it to be all about trial and error and I won't expect it to affect everything.

Here's how I think it works:
Let's say you're making something simple, likeBlob Candy. This only has one resource, fruit,plus the carbosyrup which doesn't have any effect on the final product.
Let's say you use some berries with 500 DR, 900 PE, 800 FL, and 750 OQ.
I wanted to read your entire post. Really, I did. But I could not get past this line. What self respecting Chef would ever use berries with stats like that?

It will be interesting to see the posts over the nextcouple weeks. I just finished a huge crafting push so vendors are stocked for a couple weeks. This is the first patch thatchangedChef directly that I was not chomping at the bit to see how it all panned out. I will take in all the posts and then see how I feel about it when it is time to craft again. This way I don't make a rash decision and respec to Master Squadleader or something.
I got a whole extra 12 seconds on my Pica! /squeal
Ok, that was maybe a little sarcastic happiness but meh, buff doesn't really bother me and if it gives me an extra few seconds on some things I'll take it.
I never notice my starting percentages so I can't really say if those are changing at all.
Iv been seeing the same as what Sciguy was explaining the end % usually a little higher but the starting % usually the same as before
Its just enough to boost your foods a few sec or make them a little more powerful, I like it.
I think 5% would rock, but I will take what we can get
