Consumable recipes

[trashpanda]

Are any of the recipes worth making? Other than the mind wipe and bug repellant. Things like the stews and stuff.

It is from a pve standpoint, so i can´t really put all of them in since some of these i don´t touch.
The Consumable Recipes can serve useful purposes and can wary in usage dependant on PVE/PVP and public/private servers.
I will share what i generally use and the following statements are based on my opinion.

Calien Soup(Provides Cold Insulation) and Fria Curry(Provides Heat insulation) - not a abnormal amount, but can be noticeable.
In general when having problems and not having access to Equipment that can grant you insulation. Having these options is a benefitial investment,
though my main usage of them was for Caves - High end(The Island) specifically.
Cheap

Lazarus Chowder(Water Breathing)
Before having the option for underwater equipment then using Lazarus Chowder for being underwater without having to worry about oxygen
for a limited time
Cheap

Broth of Enlightenment(50 XP % Increase) - of the base i think
This will help when your on a mass crafting spree of Narcotic and huge XP items, though the recipe is a rather expensive one early-mid game(water resource).
Expensive.

Focal Chili(Crafting Speed and ms)
having the option to increase Crafting speed is benefitial, though i mainly used it for creating some Custom Recipes. - Mindwipe nerf:(
Cheap

Custom Recipes(HP,Stamina,Food,Water)
These are the bread and butter usage wise in my play, though if your playing on a public server it could be rather irritating.
Since respec is kinda a must and you only have a limited amount of respecs.
Cheap-Expensive

Energy Brew And Medical Brew (Stamina and HP)
Rather effective considering these can be used very early in the game and can help alot if survival problems, though compared to
custom recipes from a early-mid game perspective, then they falloff.
Cheap

Shadow Steak Saute(night-vision + insulation against Cold and Heat)
is good in regards to having night vision and giving heat + cold insulation
Expensive

The rest could have their uses in PVE, but i see a more interesting scenariou for PVP with these, though i will refrain from sharing my
limited opinion / knowledge on these.
