I have been curious on how and what is best to do when starting out in cooking if anyone has tips
Please let me know I haven't been ingame in nearly 2 months so i'm really late seeing this thread. I decided to post my Cooking power level guide 0-60. I hope the info in this guide will give you a good understanding on where you should begin, and an idea on where you will end up. Good luck bro.
I put together this tasty little guide to aid the future chefs of Vanadiel
in their quest to bring everyone the finest foods available. Consider this Rubix's Culinary Academy so
lets not hesitate and get down to business. Before we begin, keep in mind Cooking will NOT make you rich
in the world of Vanadiel. Sorry, but it is what it is. While you CAN make some profits here and there, The
goal here is to provide yourself or your LS family/friends an outlet to feed yourselves and/or Pets without
the need on relying on the AH and giving your money away to someone else. Cooking comes in handy as no matter
where you are, you can drop to the ground and make food on the fly in situations such as solo battles or exp ptys
w/o the need of returning to town to buy. Let's begin ^^
