Stat food, what will you be addicted to?

mauiwuchild · 04-06-2005, 08:29 PM

As a soon-to-be provisioner with a preference to seafood... I'm hoping AGI might be a decent stat to gain from food.

It all depends on the actual bonuses. If STA winds up giving more HP than the +Health then it will be STA . . .

Very true. I too am curious as to the actual numbers. They have already stated that the food buffs wont be greater than those you can get from potions.

Banditman · 04-06-2005, 09:26 PM

If they aren't at least equal I can tell you my L38 Provisioner won't even waste his time making them.

kr8ztwin · 04-06-2005, 09:37 PM

potions and food wont stack?:smileytongue:

Lyrus · 04-06-2005, 10:02 PM

Pasta and Casseroles please, maybe the HP food if the HP from the stamina gain isn't greater.

Well for a while the fish...+agi is not a bad thing, plus I ground out 1300 fish jerky's while leveling hehe. Maybe they will sell now though =)

I'm going with the HP food over the STA food. Reading some of the threads I've found on it, the T2 foods offer +2 STA or +20 HPs. I'd get more HPs from the pure HP food than the + STA foods, IF they follow the same progression through the tiers. However, this is all a moot point atm, because 1.) your food and drink does not last through a death like it says in the patch notes and 2.) the stats are not listed when you examine the food. I will not be shopping for a specific type of food until they are both fixed.

Umm food and drink do last through death, I tested this personally, jumped off the yellow lvl in the Mages Tower in S. Qeynos. I will be going with pasta... SMILEY

STA>HP

I've died, med to full, then fought something else. After the battle, my regen is 4%. I can eat and drink something and fight something else, after that battle my regen is 8%. I'm not saying you didn't, I'm saying that it didn't work for me, so that may be an even different problem altogether.

The icon remains after a death, whether the effect does is a different matter

That's odd, neither the icon or the effect stayed when I tried it.

Galad · 04-09-2005, 01:17 PM

From my experience since the patch, food/drink does indeed stay up after you die..but it clears out anything you had set to eat/drink when hungry/thirsty. So after the current food/drink expire it doesnt auto start a new one. I think thats why some are saying its not staying up. They just notice it down a short while after they res or release.

RafaelSmith · 04-11-2005, 06:25 PM

You know I do too. I bought a variety of foods and figured Id be using the +Health, +Agi or +Sta ones, but the stack that disappears the fastest is the power. 99% of my fights I end up running low on power way before I run low on health and that extra bit of power is the difference between getting off 1 more CA or not and possibly saving my butt...
