    Because my cooking is stalled out in level 98 - I've stopped for over a week, gathered, fought, healed in groups, roleplayed and even tried a run of a new dish.

    *cries*

    All hints appreciated!

    Any harvest or crafting operation increases your unused experience.

    Problem is : In prior releases, crafting experience was given out using diminishing returns. So using the same recipe over and over again provided you with less and less experience each use.

    That could still be in-place, since it sounded like Chris was still mulling over whether to change it.​

    If that is the case, you need to perform recipes you rarely use in order to garner the largest boost.​

    Harvesting on the other hand provides the same experience no matter how many times you have harvested in the past. You simply need to locate a higher-tier zone to garner a greater boost.

    So, you could turn all your harvesting skills off, go out and build up your "Producer Pool" by harvesting, and then return to the station and apply it to your cooking skill. :)

    Thanks! I can do that and skin like crazy - skinning too high for other gather skills anyway.

    the problem is, that cooking gives less XP than every other crafting skill. Further more you ran fast out XP because after 250 items you gain only 1XP and after 400 or so you gain nothing. Harvesting is the only constant thing. And why did you skill cooking? Could you notice anything that improved?

    I can't say if anything improved - I didn't think to snapshot all my stats - will next release. Thanks for the great idea.

    Everquest was my first MMO unless you count dial up BBS games lol . . . food had buffs there - nice ones and so I cooked. Ok, truthfully, I had an alt for each of the crafting skills but the food/drink crafting and the rp and stat bonuses made it the most fun.
    *cough* profitable *cough*

    cooking will this way here too, we wait for the system to come in. There is a hangout fully dedicated to this theme, where LB explains his vision to it. You have to search on the updates but it is at least one year old I think.
