    Also the higher food has lower % , so requires huge amounts of the base stat to even reach the cap on them.

    Example :

    Black Truffle Risotto
    Vitality 2% (Max: 15)
    Critical Hit Rate 2% (Max: 9)
    Determination 3% (Max: 14)

    So would take:

    750 vit to get the full 15 vit cap

    450 crit to get the full 9 Crit cap

    467 Det to get the full 14 Det Cap

    Or

    Lava Toad legs
    Vitality 2% (Max: 15)
    Accuracy 3% (Max: 22)
    Critical Hit Rate 2% (Max: 9)

    Take the same crit/vit to reach and a whopping 734 Accuracy to reach the full benefit.

    These are dps foods for my class, I don't see me even getting close to the vit , det or acc amounts to get the full benefit of these foods. The crit one MIGHT be possible.

    These make them useless to me and I would just use the level 45 versions, that are probably 1000 times easier to make and very easy to get the full benefits from them.

    Rough Calculations(based on current gear + adding stats from upgrades):

    Vit:

    I am current at 312 vit off 114 from gear, so about a 2.74 ratio. With gear upgrades to Ilevel 90, I would go up to 148 vit from gear, which if the same ration would be 405 vit ality. So with either of the top end dps foods, that's 2% * 405 or 8 Vit from the food, 7 away from cap.

    If I use the versions from the level 40s culinarian, its 3% * 405 or 12 vit which is right on the cap.


    That's just one of the stats. I would bet the others are just like it. So why would I use the top food, that gives me less stats then the food a tier below it. Is it tuned for later gear?

    Disclaimer: Again this is me just napkin mathing, as I was figuring out my gear set and how to maximize stats while getting the hit cap. If wrong, please correct me and show. Since atm I see no point to the top Tier food, for me at least.
