Give Thrall grilled steak
Should provide Vitality Bonus to Growth Chanced
Does not provide bonus.
Update: Now, suddenly getting bonus to Strength and Agility, 7% each. Was the affect of various foods changed? Why?
Update 2: Switched between Pork and steaks no change in the modifiers. Looks like it is stuck in the 7/7 thing.
Update 3: Growth Chance bonus has been varying now showing 14% to Strength. Looking like there’s an issue with applying the bonus to the specified ability.
Update 4: Looks like they lose the bonus when they level and then it comes back randomly on the next kill. Now showing 14% to Vitality.
I found that they actually have to eat it to get the modifier. Open the follower’s inventory, take the stack of what food you want them to eat and remove it and then put it back so that a piece of it disappears, then check the modifiers. If you have two different foods, in their inventory, try removing the one that modifies something other than what you want for growth chances.
I’ve had his issue for over a year. No buff to the appropriate stat growth % and no extra healing benefits. Forum users wrote my problem off as I did not know how to properly use food given to a thrall or something. Sigh.
I had same issues and question but i think i read somwhere the food actually changes the bonuses only if its the first food consumed after leveling. It seemed to work that way when i tested it. Ofc at 0 level it will change every time, since it will be the food consumed after leveling, before gainign additional xp
I will try to find i the source and will update with it.
I’m seeing that, initially after leveling they have no bonus, but then it comes back randomly, and not necessarily to the attribute that the food should be enhancing. I don’t have an issue with the reset at leveling, but having the food not provide the chance to increase the ability you want is an issue.
Whenever I give a thrall food, I immediately right click on the food in their inventory to force them to take a bite. Just like you would do with healing wraps in their inventory. Once they start eating it, they remain on the buff. Additionally, I’ve found that if there is food in a thrall pot, they prefer that over their own inventory. Make sure you don’t have one of those near, that has any food in it.
My thrall pot seems to have stupid long range. I can have it at the crevice in the north and be in the Unnamed City and my thrall will still eat from the pot.
