Eating

[Some Nasty Pirate]

So whats the deal with eating? Is it essential? How do you eat? How come when I eat it say's, "No effect" is it really important for a adventurer like me? What are the things to eat anyways? Is rat meat good...?

I'm asking for someone to give me his time explaining this to me, much gratitude.

Eating is not required in Vanilla MW. You can get mods that make it required like Necessities of Morrowind. Without a mod, MW has ingredients for Alchemy. Based on your Alchemy skill, you will see the possible effects that an ingredient has when mixed for potions or from eating. Most ingredients have up to 4 effects.

In Vanilla MW, you get the top listed effect of the ingredient based on your Alchemy skill. It can also increase you Alchemy skill by successfully eating.

However, with the Morrowind Code Patch (MCP) on Nexus, which is highly recommended, there is an option to always have the PC get the top listed effect when eating an ingredient.

The MCP fixes many known bugs in the game.

There are quite a few mods that change ingredients and gameplay. One even causes damage a day later after you eat something like a diamond.

Yes, you can eat any ingredient in the game. Including wolf pelts and other crazy things.

I recommend getting the MCP and then exploring mods that require you to eat and sleep, if that interests you.

In MW, you never have to sleep, except 1 hour when you want to level up.

Hope that helps!
