Guild Wars 2

Fusion cooking

(IN)Fusion

Infusions will be done with ascended cooking.

It’s ironclad logic.

They’re just going to add an ascended crafting material to the game (akin to Deldrimor Steel, Elonian Leather, Damask, etc). That item? Bacon, of course! Bacon will be added to current level 80 dishes to make ascended versions (Bacon Wrapped Truffle Steak, Bowl of Fancy Potato and Bacon Soup, etc).

I was thinking sushi but bacon works

It would be nice to get some more use out of Seaweed. It’s a level 80 material, and I think it’s only used in one recipe. Of course we’d need fish to make sushi. And what better way to get fish than fishing. I’m going to change my vote from bacon to sushi.

Sushi makes more sense but bacon’s been a glaring omission from cooking since the dawn of the game. It can’t be cut out because of fear of offending non-pork eaters, as other things in the game would far more offend such cultures. I thought at first it might be because you get either red meat or poultry so the final dish is made without reference to the red meat’s origin, but you do get specifically named meat dishes.

Besides, bacon makes everything better. So I vote for it as the new ascended ingredient!

Naa, I vote for sushi. Ascended is more refined and expensive right? So sushi. Caviar and all that, all the way. Maybe throw in some expensive meat (Kobe beef, those cows are well fed and massaged when alive) and rare fruit (like coco de mer).

I’ve always seen the “Slice of Candied Dragon Roll” as sushi o.O

I’d like it if we could use ascended rings as an ingredient in wedding cakes.

I dunno if Ascended cooking will give food recipes that are greater in power than what we have at 400. We didn’t see Ascended potions with r500 Artificer, for example. I think it’s more likely that r400+ dishes will be the same as 400 ones, but they have a greater duration.

Another possibility is new dye recipes that give us possible drops of the exclusive colours from the Flame & Frost, Toxic etc. dye sets.

Or… it’s could be candy made to look like sushi.

Probably lets you make food that increase quantity of bloodstone dust, empyeral fragments and dragonite ores you get.

I’d be all for an Ascended food item that requires 250 Bloodstone Dust as one of the ingredients and that gives you a big boost to MF.

Sushi is vinegared rice.

Fish, vegetables, etc. are all optional toppings that go on the sushi.

They will just add legendary Food if they’re smart once crafted you can select what statsbuff you want and it gives you the ghostly Aura that sometimes Pop with the ghost Food from haloween

So you don’t need fish in the game for them to add sushi. Just Rice and Vinegar.

I never said we did need fish for them to add sushi. I said sushi would be a great opportunity to add fishing, which I something I’ve personally wished were in the game since the beginning.

You said:

Of course we’d need fish to make sushi.

I was simply challenging the “we’d need” part.

I’m not opposed to adding fishing at all.

Unfortunately, the nature of communicating with strangers via text means things said can be taken literally when they’re not meant to be. Obviously we don’t need (it isn’t necessary) fish to have sushi, but I need (I really, really want) fishing to be added to the game.

Mats only drop from the Champion Boar in Queensdale. :p

A touch of heaven cheese burger:D

I would like to imagine 500 Chef giving foods extended durations (more than 1 hour) and perhaps being able to combine the durations by putting 4 of the same food together. Though this is only wishful thinking. Who knows how it will be implemented

Zaoda.1653:

Considering they just added an item to the gem shop that gives the option to extend food duration, I wouldn’t bet too much on this happening.

i dont think they change power on buff foods – would make all foods useless

i bet they just add agony resistance to the food with recipe like:

Food + some minivisioncrystal(5-10 blooddust,empyral,dragonite) + +1 infusion from fractals + the asc vendor items

something like this would make sense

My guess is that level 500 crafted food will give effects like the sixth effect on superior runes.

Bacon, sushi, cheeseburgers…
Stop it! Just stop it!
This thread is making me hungry!

omg red velvet cupcakes

For ascended food or perhaps legendary food I would like it to have unlimited uses, but still on a 30 minute timer.

Longer timer (hour) and 3rd added stat is what I am thinking.

If they make the ascended cooking “organic” I will never make another food item. On the other hand, bacon could easily be an ascended food item

recipes will, if armour recipes are anything to go by, be using up the mountains of cinnamon, walnuts and any other over supplied food stuffs.

as opposed to a cheese burger in paradise?

The last thing this game needs is more crafting especially if it becomes like other ascended crafting where everything becomes account bound.

Consumables need nerfing overall not increasing. The whole idea of -40% condition damage and +40% condition damage foods is just not smart. There just are soo many stacks and stacks of temporary buffs (from holding runes, from killing guards, from food and consumables etc). It really needs toned down.

This is a step in the wrong direction.

here my logic for ascended cooking. make some food, sprinkle some bloodstone dust and poof its ascended!

Half Life 3 confirmed!

We have NO clue what it’ll entail… yet people are already complaining about it. Seems about right.
