Wrong again, you are not forced to restore fruit food, you might be even out of jalapenos.
Putting 10 in you inventory for a gluttony sessions will then likely end up having 6-7 or them with 25% or less, which is a waste of space that might be needed for better food to get the most out of your gluttony set.
15-50 base is not huge, not even at high %, and that's only for the good ones (those used in the purgative), the others are only ever useful as fertilizers.
[edit:] You might not be good at math and you might not have any high character, but isn't it obvious?
You have your current humors and the points of your gluttony set on the one hand. (That is, what you want to achieve within one session.)
And you have the average points/item and the limitation of carry capacity and 1024 inventory slots + feasting table on the other hand.
Therefore you need to optimize it after a certain combination of current humors and gluttony set points, and fruits don't cut it there anymore.
This is how I know you don't have a high humor character.
Wasting a slot? If there is a max # of items you can carry you are never going to reach that with how much food weighs. Fruit doesn't weight that much and you aren't going to have that much left over once you make potions. I don't understand why you keep fighting about something so simple that helps you out in the long run. You don't use fruit as a staple glutton food. You use them like you would bajels or smoked meat. You just top yourself off without using up meat or bread group. How is that hard to grasp?
Steps to glutton:
1. Plant fruits to make potions
2. Make said potions from the fruit
3. Use the left over fruit in your normal glutton session as a filler or top off food.
4. Restore food group if/when you need
5. Use your potions made from fruit to lower timer
6. if timer == 0:
have another glutton session
else:
wait for your much lower FF timer to come up for a new session
7. enjoy having a high humor character using all available options
You are welcome
Dallane, please, really, don't troll help!
Mod or not, that is starting to get silly.
(Either that, or you have no idea of what you are talking about, or your highest char is 200 or so.)
a.) You can easily fit 1024 food items for gluttony into your inventory, despite what you said, if you can't, it might be because you are either too low in humors or you are doing it wrong.
b.) No, unlike what you said, you will have a lot of spare fruits when you aim at making potions from them, due to the super random nature of getting them, and the exact combination you need.
Whereas you can only use ~2-3 fruits without restore,
there is no restore for fruits, except food made with jalapenos as variable bellpepper!
c.) The point where you compare fruits to bajgiels and smoked meat gives away that you are either trolling or you don't know what you are talking about, smoked meat is still nice for lower level gluttony, though not that good once you are higher due to the low points/item value, bajgiels are nice, but the point is, that both are easily restoreable where fruits are not.
Fruits have:
- a horrible 50%/50% chance AND are difficult to restore
- a too high span from min to max to be reliable
- too low gluttony value to be really useful
- off the tons of leftover fruit from making potions you may likely use only 2-3, that is not much
