Berry Juice Question

Was reading the wiki to study food effects. Came across Berry Juice and compared it to Purified Water it crafts from … but that left me even more confused: it restores less thirst than purified water and doesn’t do anything in exchange all while it expires after a duration? If anyone is willing to clear this oddity up for me? Is the wiki mistaken, or what going on here?

I’m gonna say realism lol.
In reality Water is the best thirst quencher where as juice just makes me more thirsty plus if you leave it out it will expire.

As for i game reasoning……… I have no clue I just use purified water to make other drinks.

From what the wiki says, it restores 2 more points of thirst than purified water, but yeah, it’s not a really good tradeoff.

I’m guessing it’s one of those overlooked details, left over from multiple changes to the food system.

This made me check again, and I somehow misread it as 50 thirst quench for the Purified Water instead of the 35 … Dunno how I didn’t catch that the multiple times I was flipping the page tabs. Thanks for setting me straight.

One can risk sickness from drinking from a strange water source. . . lol.
Apparently not, you can drink seawater, brimstone polluted water, water with dead things in it, etc

I’m toying with polluting some ponds in my map and making the seawater undrinkable… problem would be people would probably die of thirst… unless I make a rain collector or something

Thanks for bringing it up!
Did you happen to check the cooling effect? Is it stronger than the one you get from water? Ice, so far in my knowledge has strongest cooling effect than water, so i was lazy all these years and use ice. Yet i never tested, berry juice or ice tea, to see if the cooling effect is as strong or stronger than ice! Sometimes we use the most convenient and we stop searching for more, so i would love to see more replies for the cooling effects of these products! It’s a thing i haven’t give much attention. @rolee9309, have you search this deeper?


This is the strongest cooler I could find.

Thanks @rolee9309! I was sure you already searched it :grin:! Rum however, that means tipsy and headaches with stamina recovery penalties! Still ice remains best choice isn’t it?
