What meal (bonuses) do you eat and why?

[LordShoe]

obviously accounting for what monster youre fighting, bonus do you usually find yourself going for as the default or the one you use the most?

Moxie for ones I suck at
Bombardier when using sticky and gunlance (I can't remember if impact cb benefits or not)

How the heck do you even get Bombardier? I've tried all manner of combinations and the closest I've gotten is Pyro ><

Eat x4 yellow ingredients (Artillery), they are at the very bottom.
Use a food voucher or gourmet to make sure you get the skill bonus.

Almost exclusively Slugger.
I was using Moxie too for a hard fight, but it just doesn't seem to ever activate, either that or I don't get how this skill works.

works by - an attack that would kill you instead just puts you down to 0 health (or 1 health basically). It doesn't work if you have, like, poison, or are on fire, or.. yeah. It also doesn't stack with stuff like Guts skill either, and only works once

I know I tried it and it just would never activate, because even in the case of flame blight / poison, you still get and can clearly see the 1 health being burned away by that status effect as you get back up.. which was always a funny activation of Guts, visually speaking. :p

as for stacking it with stuff like Guts, that I understand, but since I'm not using the Lunastra Guts HH anymore like in base game and since using anything other than guts in IB as well as other gadgets on the Palico (assuming that vigor gadget's "revive" can also cancel Moxie), even with all that, I would always just cart when I get low to 0 health from a fatal hit even though I had Moxie.
That made me wonder if it was a fresh ingredients sort of thing, or a chance for Moxie to activate, which is why I stopped using it.

edit: just tested it again and like before, if I'm low health it just doesn't activate and no, it wasn't a DoT status because I was fighting a Rajang in the arena and there weren't 2 hits in there either, because if there were 2 hits, I'd still get the message "Felyne Moxie skill has been activated", which I didn't get that at all.
There is probably a hidden rule to this mechanic that makes it activate only if you're above like 35 - 65% health, or maybe that rule for its activation applies for moves that deal a lot of damage and you were low enough on health for that to be a fatal hit.

I'll try it out in MR Tempered hunts, those are the ones I haven't done much of yet, maybe in there this will work as advertised.

[Washing Machine]

Attack L with Black Belt.
If Insurance available, get it and join some tempered randos SOS.

[Fat Pigeon]

6x Meat or Veggie (depends on what monster)
And then blackbelt and sharpshooter :)

Cause i need those two with a bow

[Emerald Lance]

I eat for +50 HP and +50 stamina. If there is a meal that offers this and a decent set of skills then I'll go for it, but to me the most important thing is topping off my numbers without having to use items. My logic is that if I need insurance or moxie to survive a hunt, then the issue lies with me to begin with; personally I'd rather git gud than rely on passives.

Having said that, my personal favorite buff to get is elemental resistance, since my armor sets tend to dip pretty far into the negatives for some elements. A little bit extra toughness is always nice. But again, only if I can get it with maxed HP and stamina.

[stealthdriver]

Only ones I really have saved are:

Safeguard for helping randoms
Zoomaster if hunting rare endemic life/achievement s
Black belt/sharpshooter for bow runs

Mostly just eat chefs choice for health/stamina increases without used a voucher.

[Guywars]

Unless i need Felyne Safeguard i just eat for the chef's choice cause i'm too lazy to pick other things

[~KeNnEtH~]

To be honest, I only eat 3 platters:

Chef's Choice when I am just doing any content - I know that's not optimal but to be honest, I am just eat for the HP and Stamina buff.

Veggie Platter when I am fighting Kirin, Teostra, Lunastra, and basically just any monsters that are heavily elemental based.

Open Road Platter when I am fighting something I know there is a chance either my teammates (who will be randoms from SOS) or me may cart from. This is the platter for Felyne Safeguard. Usually, I only use this for the hardest content because I don't really wanna spend my tickets even though I have quite decent amount.

[Aelin Galathynius]

Bombadier for Charge Blade
Blackbelt for Bow
Lucky Cat if farming for rewards.
Safeguard if we're down to 1 cart or we lost multiple carts early on in a long hunt like Kulve.

If I don't want anything specific I usually eat either Chef Choice or just anything that gives attack up L

Why without having to use items?

Saves me a step and the items. Why waste a max potion just to top off, you know?

because steamworks fills you with them like you wouldnt believe lol.

Sure it takes a little bit more time and collecting, but I just bring 5 mega nutrients and eat the quest rations every quest. Or have energy drinks on hand. I have them in my box regardless since carting removes those buffs anyways and I'd have to pick them up.
