Perilous Legends Wiki

Cooking

Farm, pasture and sea ingredients cooked into dishes that carry an hour-long effect, plus the Cook Quartermaster's shelf of chef gear.

Overview

Cooking is the shard's food craft. Ingredients from the farm, the pasture and the sea become dishes, and every dish gives one effect for an hour. Its other flavor is the Cook Quartermaster, who turns cooking runs into power scrolls and chef equipment.

What It Does

On Perilous Legends

Every dish on Perilous Legends is cooked at the Perilous cooking table, which opens from a skillet, rolling pin, flour sifter, BBQ smoker or a home Cooking Station. A recipe always takes exactly three units of ingredients, one per pan window, and needs no oven or fire. Eating a dish gives its effect for one hour. Only one food effect runs at a time, so eating another dish replaces it.

Fish Steak and the five prepared ingredients are always on the menu. Every other dish must be learned first from its recipe scroll (double-click it); until then it shows greyed out. Cooking recipe scrolls only come from the rare loot pools, and the pool is set by the dish's Cooking skill: 110 and below drop as Ultra Rare, 111 and up as Mythical.

Classes That Use It

Artisan: every level gives +1% exceptional chance, saves 5% more materials on a failed craft and adds a small chance to double output. Cooking Mastery (level 8 fork, instead of Carpentry) adds +5 effective Cooking per level.

Training It

Fish Steaks train Cooking to 80 and no further. From 80 to 110 every prepared ingredient and every dish of 100 Cooking or below teaches on each craft. From 110 to 120 only the 110 and 115 dishes teach. The 120 dishes never raise the skill; they are the reward for capping it. Cooks and bakers teach the early points.
