    Food EXP bonuses

    For different types of food, do the EXP bonuses stack? In other words, if I eat a piece of flatbread (+3 EXP) and a bowl of Mutton Soup (+3% EXP), do I add those together to get +6% EXP, or is it still just 3%? For that matter, do any bonuses I get from eating food stack?

    Eating new food overwrites the previous food bonus completely.

    no, not completely. Before craft i eat 3 different foods - for craftmanship, CP and control. Exp bonus doesn't stack, but all 3 stats grows.

    PS anyone knows - is there a food with >3% Exp bonus?

    By all means supply a screenshot proving that. I'm pretty sure you're just wasting food.

    Food does not say stack +2. It does say max +2, but that does NOT mean you can stack food. Rather, it's a limit on how high the buff will work. So, for example, if a piece of food says it gives +25% Vitality (max +5), that means you get a bonus of 1/4th your vitality, up to +5, which occurs at 20 Vitality. Past that, the food only ever gives +5 Vitality, even if your base is 500. This system means you must use low level food at low levels, as higher level food has lower percentages but higher caps.

    You are wasting Buffood here. The raise you see probably comes from having used skills, like for example Control is raised after each hasty touch or other Quality raising skills. And 3% is the max EXP bonus you can get.
