View Full Version : Slices of Pizza

Simple, short request- It'd be nice to have shorter-lasting (30 minutes) versions of mixed food like pizza, that gives both accuracy and attack bonuses. Not a big deal or anything, but it would be nice.
Besides, it's a bit silly that in a world where everyone runs around with sharp objects people can't figure out how to slice a pizza.

ftfy, and ^. This is a great idea.
Pretty good idea, 3hr food is great for longer events, it just sucks if you end up dying.

I don't use pizza because I don't play the jobs that require them but I Liked this post based simply on this line. Give the man his pizza slices!

Who the heck eats an entire Pizza right before extreme combat?
Whole Pizza's should give "decrease movement speed"

Is any job really struggling with accuracy so much that pizza remains the best for them?

Because this concept isn't applicable to other foods.

There has been many times where I'm doing my BLM thing, just ate a vermilion jelly (4hr food for BLMs) and I get asked for help.
Most of the time this wouldn't bother me, most of my jobs are mages and can use the MP+ from the jelly.
But when I get asked to come as WAR.....

Depends on what you're fighting, obviously.

Really, there's all kinds of questions you can ask about it.
-Why it last 3 hours? That's 3 whole days of Vana'Diel Time, so I'm led to believe that the races of Altana are all descended from cows and re-chew their own food.
-Why does food disappear when you die? Well, I guess I've heard that you soil your pants as the last thing before you die. I'd like to see an animation for that.
-How does Marinara pizza get bits of seafood on it when there's no such thing in the recipe?
-What kind of person actually eats pizza with no toppings? What a bunch of losers.

Thing is, pizza is cheap. You don't lose much if you die with a pizza on. Curry buns on the other hand, break up a very expensive food- the idea here is really to prevent losses from dying prematurely.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they can't do it or its a bad idea, but is it really necessary?

Yeah man, 9000 every single time you eat food is so cheap. It's especially cheap because stunners are so good at stopping Dolls from exploding. That's your discount coupon to value town.

Pizza doesn't cost 9k. Not on shiva anyway. Last time I looked it was 3-4k for marinara pizza (which is what most people I know use if they use pizza)
And you can mostly make 9k back from a single junk AUG item in abyssea.

Considering Red Curry was something like 150k-250k a pop back when they did the bun updates, yes, 9k is really cheap.
Also, Bison Steak is better than YCB and cheaper if anyone's that strapped on cash.
Edit: Seconding the motion that the last line of the OP is amazing.

You'd have to slice it pretty thin to get twelve slices... unless it's a really big pizza I guess. Maybe that's why it last some long.
Could make a new synth with same stats but as a 30 min food and call em Pizza rolls/pockets.... Calzone even.

No. Ofcourse you have certain situations (Puk Voidwatch, ladybug aby NM, etc), but you shouldn't have to nitpick.

The marinara sauce contains Sandfish :)

Better start feeding her then.
Nobody likes a twig for a Mithra, everyone wants to see some....meat....yeah....meat on the Mithras.

It's a matter of added a few new items, so I'm hoping it wouldn't be too difficult.
For me, it's more of a question of convenience than saving gil...I can save more space by not having to lug around 3 or 4 pizzas at once in the off chance that I die and instead having a stack that I can just pop again.

This is a great idea. There still some NMS in heroes areas and grounds of valor mobs lv 95 + my accuracy is horrible, and i have eat pizza.

I actually thought way back when they made curry buns from the soup that pizza slices would also show up somewhere, but they still haven't D:
It's a good idea, and also a way to make those crafters mad when they +1 their pizzas! =p

We all know they have some meat somewhere... lol

We are already mad when making Coreal Subs, we +1 the main synth to make the subs...
