Well if it ends with days of cooking for a few hours of combat the balance would be bad. But i'm not so good at this type of math stuff so others would need to compare the time spend gathering resourced+cooking them with how long the food lets you fight

ive tryd a little on my alt so far i got 48700 perfect whales(686hp) and 1541 normal whales(624hp) in 6 days time (just cooking no fishing) at max mastery with just cookin cape 15% double chance no pot no furnace


pretty sure my last message i burned through 50k cave fish(286hp) fightin slayer task dragons and horned and that was in 2 days 29sept to 1okt they nerfed some of the dragons but i think the black 1 still hits that hard so it's a rough estimate if u were to solely do black dragons ud burn more than that and then u have malcs who hits even harder

idk if u overeat cavefishes andthat min max ♥♥♥♥ but its a rough estimate i gues

update: The struggle to complete 40 master slayer tasks now is real. I'd say 2 days cooking = 1 day of combat.

Yea the cooking time increase on fish is really annoying, it takes sooo much longer to cook, and the perfect cooks aren't anywhere close to making up for it. taking 4x as long to cook for 10% bonus hp.. and the fact that the best Pot recipe requires farming chicken, which in itself takes ages because no matter how good your gear is it takes like 3 seconds to respawn a chicken for combat, makes it not viable. So you are stuck on cream corn and carrot cakes which are already much worse than fish but also cannot gain perfect and are cooking 5x as slow in passive slot, so they don't make up for anything.

Either the dev didn't run the numbers, or he did run the numbers and intentionally crippled cooking sustainability so players are stuck for days on end waiting for food to be cooked, which won't last long. He also nerfed versatility as for example now you need to manually disable perfect cooks if you wanna make summons because e.g. wolf only except non-perfect fish. I was lucky that I had saved 80k cooked whales so I don't need to cook for a while but for everyone who didn't save up food it's really poorly balanced.

Luckily I've done all my combat part before the update, once I heard they would nerf carrots

reopening this old thread to remind devs that cooking sucks. I hope they re-work it during expansion 1. Make MORE items that boost cooking to be in-line with fishing. Right now cooking is the least fun thing in the entire game. Make cooking items that double food cooked so you can cook 8 items at a time. You can make it hard to aquire to grind out 1000's of items or something if you must, but do something.

cooking got totally ruined, all the recipes added are useless and the only one that matters got nerfed to the ground...

I think the biggest thing is the discrepancy between the amount of time it takes to fish, and the amount of time it takes to cook said fish. I can fish up 30 whales in the time it takes me to cook 6 - 10 of them.

It has this nice feature where you can passively cook, yet you would never actually want to use it since you get 0 XP/Mastery from using it. Imagine if it was like Woodcutting.
