Thread: What foods to buy
ParisTeta wrote:A Little how to use Ruby Bliel, even though it's not working as intendet.
The Special feature right now is, that drinking it, reset the timer for Stims to zero, after drinking you can use a stim again, so simply
a)use a stim
b) Drink Ruby Bliel
c) use a stim again
d) wait 30 sec and use a stim again
*ruby bliel effects ends*
Good to know!

Plus healing usually is damn near self defeating; you heal 500 dmg with your CM skills, by the time you can do anything again... the mob has inflicted 600 dmg. Go figure.You would think the longevity of a doc would REALLY be bolstered by the fact they can also use stims, which it is if you are running low on mind... but again the fact that the refresh takes so long, makes cm/doc alot less effective than it could be.
I run into that problem very frequently. The solution for me is not to heal until absolutely necessary. If you heal your target for more than the enemy has damaged them, the enemy will immediately aggro you. If someone has a huge mob all attacking them, don't even THINK about healing them unless you have a death wish. Let them incap and lose the aggro, then heal (this works especially well for CM because you can heal an incapped player immediately after they incap and get them right back in it). Obviously this only works twice as the third incap = death, but with MCM I can resuscitate so I don't usually worry about people dying. I would rather stay alive till the aggro is dead or gone than keep someone else alive only to die myself, then have them die also and then there is no hope
Since now Foods / Drinks with the same attribute do not stack, making the one with the highest mod come up on top and take the other's place.. I scavanged what where the best options and came out with..
Foods :
Kiwi swirl lasting about 14 mins and if good made, gives about +3xx health, the one I use gives +327; the rest of the mods it gives are always set at base - This is about what I use most for pve..., it has a "decent" duration, and gives many important mods, that as master rifles, they come quite in handy
Teltier noodles lasting about 1 hour and 1 min, +183 health, +100 action reg. - This I use for easier situations, ones where I just need a bit of aciton reg along with a bit more health, in pve, if your in a good group and what you have to face isn't dificult.., its not whort spending a kiwi swirl, henceforth, this food comes in handy
Synthsteak, this varies alot on the chef that makes it..., on Eclipse currently its very hard to find, mostely due to the lack of chef's still playing, and because its very usefull..., the one's I use have a filling of 27, 38 seconds duration and the mitigation bonus is of 41%, good for dificult ocasions
Vegaespirne (or however its written), I only use this vs jedi or some melee hitting npc/monster, because of the melee defense it gives, it comes quite in handy, the one's I use give +102 melee def
-
Drinks :
Mandalorian wine, this is far much better then breath of heaven, but not all chef's can make it because it requires a shematic one can only get in the death watch bunker..., anyway, this made by a good chef can give up to +4xx health, the one I use gives +442 and lasts for 8 mins.., rest of the mods it gives are set to base.. This drink though, I only use it for extream ocasions.., since it has the same mods as the kiwi swirl (and more two other) it will take its place if its consumed, so, for those situations where the kiwi swirl isn't enough, this drink is probably the best thing to use
Deuterium-pyro, this varies again, the one's I use give +187 ranged accuracyfor 1 minute, this is only for something that has a high ranged defense.., comes in very handy vs jedi defenders
Ruby Biel - again, for the use off the stim's, this is a must-have.. I use healing stims of 12xx health so with this I can take one after another without waiting much, very helpfull if your in a hard situation..
-
Spice :
Neutron pixie, since I have no use for mind regeneration, this is the best spice I can use..I always keep about 3 ready to use in my inventory because its always something that its praticaly impossible to do without, since it stacks to everything, always whort using, always.
It might not be the best combos out there.. and I probably am missing a few things.. still.. its what I have come up so far... others may prefer crispic to the pyro, blob candy to the noodles, and so on... I recon.. for me.. it seems to work.. that is.. until something better comes along 
Hope it helps. Regards
Is it just me, or can you not eat two different foods at the same time, even if you're not full?
I can't eat the Kawika Swirl (sp?) and Blob Candy at the same time, it's either one or the other for me, which is especially odd because I assumed by the way the icons look that the Swirl is a drink and the Candy is a food.....

you can only eat 1 type of food per buff type. If the food shares a buff type you can not stack it. If it does something else then you can eat it.
so only 1 health bonus, one action bonus etc.
