Cooking

Description

You can cook with various food ingredients. You can learn recipes through books or NPCs.

Details

• By using the Cooking skill, players can create their own food items.
• The quality of the food will range from 1~5 stars, with 5-star cuisine being the best.
  • Quality is determined by how accurately the player follows a given recipe.
  • The Quality of 1-5 stars is determined by a hidden value that rates the food from 1-100.
• Food will give a variety of different effects.
  • Effects of individual foods will differ based on how many stars that particular item has.
  • A cut-scene will be shown for particularly tasty food (errorless 5-star cuisine).
  • These cutscenes usually revolve around the specific type of food; for example, Roasted Chicken might show something related to chickens.
• This skill is affected by the amount of Dex the player has. Increased Dex reduces the instability of the ingredient bar while cooking.
  • Perfect stability occurs around 375 ~ 400 Dex.
• To cook, players will be prompted to place the ingredients into 3 separate boxes upon loading the skill. After completing a short minigame, the ingredients will disappear and the player will receive the finished food item.
• All the cooking methods require cooking tools to be equipped in both hands.
  • Cooking tools that can be equipped on the right hand are the Cooking Knife, Ladle, and Rolling Pin.
  • Cooking tools that can be equipped on the left hand are the Cooking Pot and Cooking Table.
• Baking, Simmering, Boiling, Deep-frying, Stir-frying, and Jam Making need a player to be close to a fire (i.e., a source of heat). The game will allow a player to use a Campfire, Cooking Oven, or Grill as a source of heat.
• Please see Category:Cooking for a complete list of recipes.
• All food effects listed in Category:Cooking are the maximum attainable for unshared, errorless 5-star foods. Lower-quality and shared foods will have diminished effects.

Most effects are adding stat points to you for a limited amount of time.

• The higher the cooking rank, the longer time the food effects last.
• Sharing cooked food around a campfire provides up to a 100% boost to postive stat boosts and duration, when shared with a total of 8 people. There is no change in negative stat changes.
