salad shouldn't instant kill you if you can eat mushrooms raw just fine

[Bio[redacted]]

I was hungry and after a lengthy outing just scavenging some food to be able to save after a big excursion I was able to make a salad out of fly agaric. However even though cooking the mushrooms makes them safe to eat, and eating two of these mushrooms in a row raw is no problem besides toxicity, it still instant killed me. This feels like almost borderline griefing.

Cooking the mushrooms does not make them safe to eat. Their usual toxicity will be included in the dish's description (though in blue text).

It's possible your Immunity was low. Certain amounts of toxicity wouldn't be lethal if your Immunity is 125% but lethal if your Immunity is 0%.

Not that I even know what the Immunity stat is even supposed to represent...

before r2r i would used cooked fly agaric to help with pain, but it was like 15% intocation before idk what it is now, either way that's a cool way to die, there's tons of penny buns, morels and the other mushroom, if your near a field, rhubarb, leeks and lentials are always around, ducks near rivers, rabbits and some birds, there's tons of food to be had.
wonder if they'll had an achievement for killing yourself with food, or other cosumables, that'd be cool, or killing yourself on a trap, maybe just surviving a fight and dying to bleeds.
always interesting how you can win then just die due to a snake or some other weird ambush.
makes the game very interesting but a bit harsh, btw did it really "instantly" kill you? or was it over a set of time? just curious

You ate fly agarics for hunger and died.

200% unplayable.

Antidote Syringe keep in your backpack at all times, if you're that hungry you could even eat Death Cap Salad as long as you have Antidote Syringe.

I tested the matter.

Correct, making a salad out of mushrooms is far deadlier than eating them plain. But money3030 is also right. It did not strike me dead where i stood. I took a syringe and was fine.

Interesting. With Meat Skewers, their toxicity did not increase. This may be a bug exclusive to mushroom salads... which doesn't make sense since salads aren't cooked at all and the ingredients' properties wouldn't change.

Yes, as far as I can see the game treats fly agarics in mushroom salad as deathcaps.

Same effect as pineapple in pizza, I suppose.
