Healer Food

Does anyone know/have an opinion on what the best food for Coil healer would be?

I was thinking a Mind food, but there doesn't appear to be any Mind food, or any food with a primary stat bonus on it for that matter. Googling around I found discussions claiming that Grape Juice (+8% Piety, +4% Vitality, +2% Spell Speed) was the best option.

But wouldn't Determination be a better choice than Piety as Determination increases the amount you heal?

Chicken and Mushrooms (+8% Determination, +4% Vitality, +2% Accuracy) appears to have the highest Determination boost, but Accuracy is a bit useless.

Has anyone done any testing or number crunching?

I've been wandering the same!

I personally like buttons in a blanket. Easy to make and its det, vit and crit.

Pineapple juice ...max inc of 12 where grape juice has a max inc of 2 same stat inc on both except less % increase but like I said max stat inc of 12 instead of the 2 from grape juice.

Buttons in a blanket seems to be the best that can be economically used, black truffle risotto is the best non economically viable. Don't look at the percentages, look at the max values.
Buttons in a blanket: Vitality 12 Determination 8 Critical rate 13
Black truffle risotto: Vitality 15 Determination 9 Critical rate 14

for what it's worth, Accuracy does matter for any of your nukes.

I usually drink mulled tea.

Grape juice is a low level food that should only be used before level 20. I found a spread sheet with all the 2 star foods and the lower tier foods listed with numbers. This is what was listed:
Pineapple Juice
Piety 3% (Max 14) -- Amount of Piety needed to gain full benefit = 467
Vitality 2% (Max 15) -- Amount of Vitality needed to gain full benefit = 750
Spell Speed 2% (Max 9) -- Amount of Spell Speed needed to gain full benefit = 450

Lower tier version of same stat layout (if you don't have the stat's needed to fully utilize this food try these
Mulled Tea
Apple Juice

Pineapple Ponzecake
Spell Speed 3% (Max 22) -- Amount of Spell Speed needed to gain full benefit = 734
Vitality 2% (Max 15) -- Amount of Vitality needed to gain full benefit = 750
Piety 2% (Max 6) -- Amount of Piety needed to gain full benefit = 300

Lower tier version of same stat layout (if you don't have the stat's needed to fully utilize this food try this
Pastry Fish

Black Truffle Risotto
Determination 3% (Max 14) -- Amount of Determination needed to gain full benefit = 467
Vitality 2% (Max 15) -- Amount of Vitality needed to gain full benefit = 750
Critical Hit Rate 2% (Max 9) -- Amount of Critical Hit Rate needed to gain full benefit = 450

Deviled Eggs

Hope this helps. * Please remember all 2 star foods are made with clusters and annoying items, they may not be economical on most servers yet.

also try looking for lower tier HQs, they come pretty close to top tier and are sometimes cheaper
IE. Black Truffle Risotto > buttons in a blanket HQ
Apkallu Omelette > Deviled Eggs HQ

I use +crit food, as a scholar. I believe they're all egg themed; I would use the best one you can reasonably afford.
