Garlic Braid cost too high (6 garlic bulbs)

Garlic Braid cost too high (6 garlic bulbs)

Just thought I'd mention it. Also, I do realize sugar and spice doesn't have inspirations that boost it by a lot, but still. 6 garlic bulbs is too much. Way too much. That's 3 pots for 3 days. 9 humus and 3 cloves that had to rest for several days. Doesn't make any sense. If you're going to keep the cost at least make them split-able into a bunch of garlics that can be studied instead of just a 1 time use item.

PLEASE make them splittable into 6 garlics for easier storage!
I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.

I made it once and never again, cost is too much even for a low supply seller such as myself where I generally sell things for 1/2 to 1/3 as much as anyone else. It's my role as a poor farmer. 6 bulbs however you can't recover the cost of not making something else or growing something else instead. I tend to sell potted products at 3s, so 3 pots generates 18s, who would buy a garlic braid for 18s? Perhaps a few would....I wouldn't recommend it, and that is a rock bottom price. There's cheaper inspirationals to achieve the same and better results for a fraction of the cost, don't make garlic braids unless you enjoy massive waste.

Yes, it should clearly be patched next time.

It would be nice if they would data parse the inpirationals that are not made frequently and buff them all accordingly.

Because the data is only loaded when the item is viewed this is not really an issue.

What is not an issue? The issue is that some inspirationals is **** and nobody uses them.

If the inspirational is not using resources because its not used than it might as well not exist, now existent things to not need to be buffed.

Go home Darknacht, your drunk. I'm saying that it needs to be buffed because nobody in their right mind is making these things to advance their character. Therefore, for the sake of item diversity. It needs to be buffed.

I gotta agree with the Chief on this. Some of the low-tier crap Inspirationals are fine as they act as a "palate cleanser" for cleaning out the study penalties. However, some don't even get used for that because of the complexity to make/find compared to what they give. (Same goes for some of the foods, too.)

I'll bet most of these get looked at with the changes, though.

Also: some analysis of what the cost/rewards would be helpful. It could make a suggestion of how the item should be changed to bring it in line with other foods.
