Carnivore vs Herbivore and more...

[KitKat]

Simple question №1: Carnivore vs Herbivore?

Now, I know this is more of a "personal preference", but... A lot of people seem to go for Herbivore more often. I myself went for Carnivore ages ago (back at launch, before a long break) due to simple convenience: both can just kill random creature and eat RAW meat without fear of disease + paired well with Cannibal, back when I used it prior to lvl50+. But hey, maybe there's some herbivore-side dish that is BOTH actually good/useful... AS WELL as easy-access? Like literally growing stuff in your camp, ya know?

And with that, simple question №2: What sort of Herbivore-side dish that might be? Useful AND easy to acquire en-masse (by growing in camp or something).

The most notable differences is that Herbivore gets better crit bonuses and slightly better xp buffs due to brainbombs, while Carnivores have better carryweight and strength bonuses that Carnivores don't have access to.

As in, Company tea gets buffed by the Herbivore bonus, eh?

Using Company Tea + Hard Lemonade makes this a non-issue. The combo works for both.

Carnivore can eat Scoarchbeast brain to get same 8 intelligence as Herbivore. The one and only real difference is that Carnivore has more strength and is suited for melee players and loot goblins. While Herbivore deal more damage because of 50% crit bonus advantage and additional AP regen. The XP gain in both cases is the exact same. 25% from soup which is very easy to cook, and 8 intelligence from Scoarchbeast brain which doesn't even require any resource to cook. Unlike Brainbombs with Herbivore.

Herbivore all the way, Corn Soup for the ap regen and convenient Water & Food hit.
