Chef Supplies
I have to agree with this, some materials are way too rare while others are way too common. Also I think there’s should be a common npc that sell all karma supplies in one spot once you have done the heart npc that sell them. Traveling around from place to place just to buy one thing at each npc is so tedious.
I have stacks of cinnamon and walnuts and there are only a couple of recipes for them, the supply far exceeds demand. For chili peppers which I could really use, I am lucky to have a few of these (less than 15) and the prices in the trading post reflect this low supply, as they are typically about 5 to 6 silver each.
It would be great if they upped the number of herb nodes, put in dedicated herb nodes, such as nodes for chili peppers or parsley or allowed the master chef to sell some herbs for money.
yeah i know its so hard to find vanilla beans too and at least make the common supplies usable in mant ways
Don’t whine. Cook is the only interesting prof in the game.
Am i the only person who experienced a stealth nerf from loot bags, from recent patches.
I was getting a decent hit on choc and butter from the bags and now its pretty much dried up
Parsley – I do not usually have an issue finding parsley, herbs in Kryta generally give me plenty.
Vanilla – I believe vanilla should also be found in bags. Specifically in thorn bags. Since vanilla is in maguuma, it would make sense to me that the Nightmare court would love the stuff, and keep it in their bags.
Chili Peppers – Used to be found readily outside of Granite Citadel in herb seedlings, which I found humorously apropos, since almost all the ingredients for a good bowl of chili were in the Charr Areas. (Flame Legion = Chili) Now herb seedlings, most of them, have been changed to blueberries. Be on the look out for Papa Smurf Charr.
Oranges: So rare now it is ridiculous. Have to find the right mob with the right bag. Could we at least have a grove of orange trees somewhere? Maybe Caledon. Lemons are over there, why not oranges.
Yams: So few nodes and you usually will run up to Haranthi only to get a carrot. I would like to see dedicated nodes to yams like there are to regular potatoes, lettuce, strawberry, etc.
I would like to see the ability to either purchase or harvest seeds and then plant them in your home instance and reap the benefits of your efforts. Not to sound too much like Farmville, but it would make it interesting, and fun. Maybe change the programming that during beta gave us dyes (where we had to turn in the seeds to a dye maker in our home instance and wait a couple days for the dyes to be made) and make this seeds for him to plant for herbs, sweet potatoes, vanilla.
Oranges I always get from Pirates in Bloodtide, the bags they drop.
I’m a maxed chef but I’m 100% completing all the recipes for the sake of completing them.
The one ingredient that I’ve never had is Clove.
For a mid tier material they’re incredibly rare, I’ve gathered many of the plants where they can be found when 100% completing the map and still not a single Clove. Let’s hope my second character has more luck than my main when he goes 100% those areas with his gathering tools…
