This is actually the case with all crafted foods. The Health buffs aren't working properly at all.

 

Good to know

Thanks

 

@Rook Strife, Thank you for reporting. This issue has been submitted to the Development Team for review. Checking to verify that it has not gotten a Bug ID.

 

@Technowitch, Thank you for the confirmation. Have you or someone else previously reported this issue in another area? Trying to verify if it has been assigned a Bug ID#

 

After testing Wolf Surprise and other foods they are working as designed. Food focus and health regeneration only work outside of combat with weapons sheathed. If this does not describe the issue you are experiencing please provide that information so that we can test further.

 

wow

 

Wow is right. What a mistake...

 

So, there's no point to eating food then? I can already regenerate fast enough by sheathing my weapon, without the cost and inconvenience of the entire food system.

 

lol .. dumb change. Why would i need OOC regen boosts? lol... Ah welll 1 less thing to carry around.

 

That just means that the regen rate in and out of combat is way too fast. Which it is.

 

This doesn't seem in line with the Release 34 instructions information about the food changes...

"Food Changes: We are finally making the eating of Food relevant to gameplay. Health and Focus regeneration have been slowed down (see Combat section below) and now eating Food is the primary way to increase those rates."

The in combat regen rates were reduced in release 34. If food was supposed to off set this why would it be designed to only work out of combat?

 

Focus regen boost works in combat mode.

 

I really hope they change this. Why would they design the strength/intelligence/dexterity food buffs to work in and out of combat but health/focus regeneration is only with weapon sheathed?
