second in regards to the Bowls you noticed the 2 +10% tooltips on if you look closely the 2 is actually on the icon itself meaning you will create 2 of them although spacing could be a bit better to make the separation more noticeable i agree
That item is not something you craft, it’s sold by a vendor.
Quality Maintenance Oil – tooltip is displaying a bonus to power, even though it applies a bonus to precision.
“experiance” in the tooltips of multiple food items, hasn’t been fixed since launch. Also a lot of inonsistency in displaying the bonus as “+10” instead of “+10%”
Every monster has a chance to drop a range of items, and mf improves the odds of it dropping the more rare of those items. You don’t have a flat x% chance of doing anything, it’s the monster that has a chance to drop something, your mf simply increases that chance.
There is nothing to “overwrite”, because of how magic find works. No need for complicated theories to explain just another tooltip error, especially considering how many tooltip errors and inconsistencies there are.
I actually posted a bug report on this kind of things.
There’s a cap on condition stacks of 25. In a scenario where you have two thieves attacking a boss and one of them can achieve a stack of 25 by themselves, the other one essentially becomes useless because they’ve got nothing to stack on. Is anything being done to address that to make them less redundant?
Colin: Currently no. Interesting statistic for you: every condition in the game costs server bandwidth. ‘Cause we have to track how often the condition is running, what the duration of that condition is and what the stack is. So the more stacks we allow, the more expensive it gets because we’re tracking every additional stack on there. And so we could say, you can have infinite stacks. Number one: that becomes really unbalanced. But number two: it’s actually extremely expensive for us, on a performance basis. That’s one of those weird, kind of back-end server issues that can help make game designer decisions regardless of what you want to do with it.
Everything mentioned in this thread is about tooltip errors, nothing more.
There is no difference between 10% and +10%, it’s just an inconsistent tooltip.
Even if that is true I still want official word that this is an error or how they intend for the foods to work.
Ok, let’s have a look at Chocolate Omnomberry Cream, which has a “20% boon duration” bonus.
Note that there is no + before the 20%. Are you suggesting that it overwrites your original boon duration or sets it to 20%?
The only time where +/- matters is in food with a bonus/penalty to condition duration. Because in that case, it differentiates between conditions you inflict on enemies, and conditions you receive.

There IS a difference 10% in all cases I have encountered with this wording meant a FLAT RATE of 10% whereas +10% meant an ADDED amount of 10% on top of what is already there.
There’s no logic in having a flat rate mf, and a percentage mf.
… If that’s your point of view, then I would suggest going into Artificer for their potion buff consumables and Cook for their food buff consumables. Though both of these buffs occupy the same buffing slot (so you can only use one at a time), you’ll have a lot of self-buffing options and you can change things around whenever you want.
Just to be clear, are you saying potions and foods don’t stack? Not to argue or anything as I haven’t actually tried it myself, but the official wiki says they do stack.
If you’re saying a potion doesn’t stack with another potion or a food doesn’t stack with another food, then you’d be correct.
Food stacks with any potion, crystal or a sharpening stone.
The current system offers the perfect balance in my opinion. The few griefers that do exist do not justify making kicking harder for everybody else. The proposed changes would cause more issues than they would solve.
You can simply try to avoid bad parties, and there are quite a few ways to do that.
It’s not profitable because it’s based on nearly-free mats and free labor. People power-level it and then sell the crafted stuff at or below cost to get most of their money back. They can’t and don’t produce anything of value.
Maybe if there was a time cost associated with crafting things…
Like in another MMO where your workshops have to store labor before you can produce anything. Since mats are generated out of thin air, the value of labor/hour is the primary factor that determines the price people ask for their items.
Someone mentioned that a player can stand near their spawn location, causing them to target the player instead of the Pact. Try that if everything fails.
On Blackgate we activated it, was able to kill most of the bounties. We went to Gendarran fields for the one in the barrel. We searched for 10 minutes and no one was able to find a SINGLE barrel. That has never happened before. We also had one that was invunerable for an extended amount of time
Bowl of Bean Salad, Bowl of Salsa – uses wrench icon instead of apple
Bowl Spiced of Mashed Yams – same effect with Bowl of Mashed Yams, which makes no sense as the second is one of the ingredients for the first.
Bowl of Meat and Winter Vegetable Stew – description is missing the 10% exp bonus, though it seems to be working
Buttermilk Biscut – should probably say “biscuit”
Bowl of Fire Veggie Chili – level 80 item with a single level 55 stat (also Bowl of Spicy Veggie Chili, Bowl of Spiced Veggie Chili, Bowl of Zucchini Chili, Bowl of Fancy Bean Chili, Bowl of Simple Bean Chili)
Thanks for the tip, I completely missed those as I didn’t buy these recipes and only had the discoverable ones. (I should probably double-check snowflake recipes as well)
Now the only thing that remains to be added is normal vendor food.
I wasn’t very happy by the limitations of the Food article on the wiki, so I made a database that makes searching for the perfect food much easier. Enjoy
You can’t destroy anything, the Mystic Forge won’t let you.
Some of the recipes use varying amounts of Elonian Wine and crystals. You can buy one Wine and one set of crystals, and the Forge will tell you how many more you need.
