    Powerful food

    Goldsmithing/Clothcraft/Smithing/Leathercraft/Bonecraft all have extremely expensive/lucrative and powerful synths i.e hexed gear 105-110 craft level. I was wondering if there were any plans to implement a new cursed food/beverage for Culinarians that would consist of expensive ingredients and an abjuration. Some ideas of food effects could be undispellable attack boosting foods, aoe attack boosting foods(like crockpots but way, way more potent), MAB+ foods or drinks/foods that give regain, reduce damage taken or other effects. Also would it be possible to implement stronger +Attack food than Red Curry Buns(a level 70ish recipe). Smoldering Salisbury Steak is almost as potent but very expensive and not worth the price/resources for its boosts.

    A higher level version of Ambrosia could be implemented, something like a miniature Primevil Brew/Ambrosia(instead of the +7 to all stats like ambrosia gives, it could be +20 to all base attributes, +150 to attack/defense, Magic Attack Bonus/Magic Defense Bonus +20 or something of the nature. Just something to make cooking a bit more exciting at high levels than just synthing level 70 red curry buns for negligible profit(compared to other crafts that can make 30-40m off a single Hexed-1 piece).

    Well, I think there should definitely be some new, potent mage food, at least. There could be a few new types implemented with various combinations of buffs such as MAB, conserve MP/Blood Boon, Cure potency, a significant amount of int/mnd, magical crit rate, and maybe even refresh. I know there are refresh drinks, but those are massively annoying to use, as they don't stack and have a very short duration. I'm thinking of 30 minute foods with 1-2 refresh along with some other cool mage buffs.

    If i may make a suggestion. If you'd like Community Support (And subsequently, any Development response at all), I recommend removing the word Primeval Brew.

    The majority of this forums... 'player base'... foam at the mouth of Abyssea!

    That aside sir, I find your idea to be most... interesting. Though If i may be as bold as to make a recommendation. I would probably insist on two foods, Both possibly Abjuration Foods? Something better than Ambrosia, Maybe something like...

    --- Both Foods would require an Abjuration to Uncurse.
    --- Both Foods require a unique, semi-difficult to obtain Item.
    --- Both foods worthy of their hard to obtain stature.

    Those are just spitballed ideas. But the idea of another tier of Abjuration foods would be really nice.
