So from time to time there are posts regarding food and the buffs they provide, (similarly for potions). In this latest patch you changed them yet again. Yet as always, the majority of the foods do absolutely nothing beyond quench hunger or thirst. Will we EVER, get a comprehensive pass on all the varieties of food and drink? I bring this up, as others have in the past, because today I ran into two food items that just makes no sense. Trail Jerky and Honey Jerky. You gave an armor perk to Trail Jerky and yet there is nothing for Honey Jerky. So let me be clear, Trail Jerky requires (1)exotic flesh and (5) salt for a piece of food that adds an armor buff. Honey Jerky requires (1)exotic flesh, (3)honey, and (1)salt for no buff. It would seem to me that these are at least equal. I hate to say it, but Funcom does have a reputation for doing things half “way”.
My second question is then why did you bother to change food/potions at all if you were not going to finish the job? It also seems to me that food should be tier’ed the more ingredients it takes to make (and the more difficult to acquire), the better the buffs etc. Thus killing an elk for exotic flesh and killing a 3 skull for abyssal flesh should not result in a food product where the lesser effort results in the higher quality.
