Cooking shard costs, 30 minute duration, fading on death.

People currently don't use food because food effects are simply too weak AND completely unnecessary to clear content.

I don't know about you but I quite like having +20 control to my level 50 crafter when I am crafting Level 55-70 items.
I never use food during battle because I know that I may wipe and makes me feel like I've wasted all my foods. With the new setting I'd be more inclined to use foods from now on.

hmm.. well this is going to drive the price of food down.

Food becomes less useless during dungeons → more people want to actually buy food → food prices go UP because it's more in demand.
Why in the world would it go down? Because suddenly everyone is gonna be a culinarian and make tons of food?

Boo. I like that you lose food effects upon death. One of the only reasons to not die left honestly... In fights where I might die I eat cheap food while learning and the more spendy stuff when we start doing better.

I say that food has a negligible effect in battle and your counterargument is that its good for crafting?

This will be an excellent addition. I don't have to worry about making insane amounts of food to account for deaths and just think of it as 20 pieces of food = 10 hrs of game time.

Food is like an extra gear slot. Look at HQ buttons in a blanket

+16 DET
+15 VIT
+10 CRIT

HQ Deviled eggs

+24 CRIT
+14 VIT
+10 ACC

significant boost.

I agree that clusters for 2 star food is dumb

[Tupsi]

Very likely the opposite I suspect. Currently nobody uses food

No one in XI/XIV 1.x refused to use food cuz of loss on death (K.O), those that didn't just decided they didn't want to do the best they can. It will drive the prices way down because it will be flooded, which is good and bad.

You all do know it's not death, right? You're knocked out. semantics I guess.

Greetings,

We are currently working on adjustments for patch 2.1 to make it so food effects do not wear off when you are KOed.

This is completely stupid. SE can you please stop doing everything that people begin to cry about.
You have to stop dumbing down every aspect of this game, all it's doing is hurting the game in the long run.

This isn't stupid at all, blows my mind that you would even consider this a bad change.

Agreed, I think it will be well balanced for the cost. It's still only 30m and so it's still a consumable, but now I can pop em in dungeons and raids and know I'm set for the next 30m. I will be using food ALOT more after this change.
