Cooking
This page was last updated for (v1.0.5). |
Cooking is used to turn raw fish and crops into edible food. Although produce such as Potatoes harvested while Farming can be used as raw food, cooked food is substantially stronger, with even low level fish such as Sardines healing more than Snape Grass, the strongest raw crop. The amount of time taken to cook food varies depending on the item being cooked. Purchasing the Art of Control god upgrade reduces this time by 15%. Using the Pig and Salamander synergy will reduce this by a further 0.1 seconds, and wearing the Chef's Hat reduces it by another 0.1 seconds.
Mechanics
Cooking Utilities
Cooking utilities can be purchased from the Shop if the player has the required skill levels. Cooking fires increase the amount of Cooking experience gained, while furnaces and pots increase the chance of acquiring double items when actively cooking. In addition, all utilities provide additional chance to perfectly cook items.
Bonuses granted from upgrading utilities apply when cooking on any utility. For example, if the player has upgraded to the Maple Cooking Fire, then the 25% bonus Cooking experience is granted even when actively cooking with the furnace or pot.
Cooking Fires
Furnaces
Pots
Passive Cooking
While one utility is actively cooking food, the other two can also passively cook to produce food. This will not grant any Mastery or skill XP, takes five times longer than actively cooking the same recipe, and has no chance of preserving resources, doubling items or perfect cooking, however has no negative effects on the active utility.
Perfect Cook
Food that is actively cooked has a chance to be "perfectly cooked," giving the item 10% increased healing and 50% increased sale value. This chance starts at 0%, and is increased by 5% every 10 mastery levels, 50% at 99 mastery, 2% by the Cooking Skillcape and 3% from upgrading the appropriate cooking utility. The maximum chance is 100%.
Perfectly cooked items cannot be used in place of regular cooked food when creating things such as Summoning tablets or Agility obstacles. For this reason, players may opt out from receiving perfectly cooked items by using the "Enable Perfect Cooks?" option near the top of the Cooking page.
Failed Cook
There is a base 30% chance for cooking attempts to fail, which can be reduced via Mastery down to 0%. There is also a 25% chance to fail a cooking attempt with the Pig and Mole synergy. If a cooking attempt fails the player will only receive 1 XP, and unless preserved the ingredients will be lost.
