Hey guys,

I’d just like to hear your opinion on food like this.
It also would be nice, to see a Dev comment.

So that you know what I’m talking about:
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Bowl_of_Sweet_and_Spicy_Butternut_Squash_Soup

It’s one of those foods released with the molten facility dungeon.
It’s not the only one, but I just chose this one, cause it’s the one I prefer.

So, now the thing is. Those foods are really nice, but the amount of ingrediants you need.. just wow..
[Link for this seems to long, just click the other link and click “Show base ingredients”]

Is it really necessary to have that much ingrediants?! It pushs up the prize so most ppl can’t or won’t effort it. A good food rarely been used cause of it ingrediants.

Should/Will there be a change or will it always be like it is?

Its the only food that buffs Power and Crit damage at the same time, if we disregard the celestial starcakes. With the incoming ferocity changes, i can see this becoming way more popular. As it lasts 1 hours as well, this is still cheaper than lemongrass poulty soup, which is one of the most widely used foods in wvw.

You want the best buffs? You have to pay for it.

The profit is quite reasonable one these to craft but iirc, they also cost like 200 karma per piece.

189 karma. Profit is maybe 7 or 8s each?

With the upcoming change this is probably going to lose the flat +10% and get changed to +70 ferocity as well.

Not necessarily the best buff. Dragon’s Breath Bun, Plate of Truffle Steak Dinner and Carrot Soufflé are potentially better depending on the situation.

Depending on the situation, thats the point.

We kinda skip most parts in dungeons, so I want a flat dmg boost and not something like this. There are mostly no mobs we gonna kill quite before a boss, so for me, the food you mentioned is crap. :o

I mean ok, I could eat 100 power 70 prec food, but yeah, dmg guard with RHS. I’ve got enough prec.
Im aktual using 100 power 70 vit only cause I won’t efford the food I mentioned in the topic.
Ok, the reason is more, that I know my guildmates and I would be the only one using this food and then it’s kinda wasted imo.

Its a good food when roaming in wvw as well.
