Sushi

Okay so ooc reminded me it has been a long while since I worked on baking, and I had a set of sushi recipes about read to go. This puts me over 200 recipes submitted, which is only about halfway to what Tao said he wanted, so throw a few on the pile people!

better bait!

i was thinking its strange that there isnt a bait for +fishing,i mean after all who uses worms irl anymore.
STinky cheese*qauntity per combine 20(irl we always make it in batches of 24 using 2 strofoam egg cartons for shaping but i dont think u can stack 24 in sod)
vanillla
cheese
salt
whiskey.(also this should be a high level combine due to the fact that its actually really hard to get right and its definetely baked)
i dont actually do theese traidskills so i am not sure of the exact components in game but this is an actuall recipie we use where i come from to make stink bait i was going to sugest maybe a +5 mod depending on component cost coming to about 100p im sure you will all understand i am not a baker just throwin it out there.
also i was going to suggest a beer that u could only drink a stack at a time that would give fishing skill an arc slowly climbing from+0to+5 then falling to -5 not sure if its doable thou

Full set of trivs - all vendor bought

Tao had mentioned in ooc a while back that there was also a need for “boring no-stat” recipes that can all be vendor bought to skill up baking. These are all made using nothing but ingredients that can be bought from a vendor, though some items are from brewing or alchemy vendors just so I had a bigger pool of ingredients to pull from. In recipes using fried meat, these were chosen from buyable meats or uses “any fried meat.” Some recipes do require items from other trade skills.

Add smithed items – cookie cutters
1 iron ingot + 1 barbarian cutter pattern = barbarian cookie cutter (etc. for all player races, could even use any mob as a cutter that you wanted.

Still looking for ideas, but here's a bit of an update for whomever might actually care about this kind of thing:

(1) The "feel" of the Baking tradeskill: I want the tradeskill to feel whimsical, and the sense of having interesting fun recipes that aren't "raid competitive functional" is not a problem for me. There will always be mix/maxers that figure out the "right food" to use, and if they decide that stat food is finally worth considering for raids, then that's great, but it's not something that warrants significant effort on the side of designing balanced parallel stat food options for each role in a raid. I'd probably have Tarutao eat his lower-stat Mistwood Vinefruit Salad for the lulz instead. Fun and whimsy are appropriate for this tradeskill in ways that wouldn't work for Fletching.

(2) The outline for the tradeskill: similar to the varnish arrows of Fletching, I think a soft-tiering of recipes is appropriate. Perhaps for the 40ish to 80ish range of Baking, you're making various cooked meats. Then perhaps from 80ish to 120ish you'd making produce-related recipes, then a range for making fish dishes and desserts, then at the very top end, you'd make the most difficult of recipes from all types. Within each range there would be recipes for whom the components are more easily obtained than others with the tradeoff of being less creative and more expensive and having lower stats.

To this end, I'm working to categorize the recipe ideas I do have. Side note: this thread has been great help for that, and even though I've heard people make comments like "that post is stupid because it just had 40 sushi recipes in it", I've appreciated it very much, and the outline of the tradeskill and its progression should and hopefully will reflect that.

(3) I'm still up for getting a lot more ideas. Unlike Fletching, this tradeskill will be receptive by design to the addition of new recipes even after its "done". If you have an idea for a four-hundred-and-twenty-seventh sushi recipe, post it anyway. If you have a crazy idea like "Frosthorn Gnoll Ears cooked over heated Halfling Kneecaps", then post that, too.

(4) Speaking of crazy ideas, I'm wanting to get some variant of "Braised Newport Guardsman Flank Steak" to work. It seems as easy as adding the meats to the loot table of any NPC named "Newport Guardsman", but that raises the issue of ruining the gameplay experience of new players because some character wants to farm ingredients at the North Newport gates. Offering Fame Points to whoever comes up with a great AND ELEGANT solution to this problem for which I've already dedicated a portion of my brainpower.

(5) I have no intention of resetting players' Baking skills to zero or lowering them by 25% like we did with the Fletching revamp or anything like that. There was good reason for doing that in the Fletching revamp, but there's no reason for it with the Baking revamp.

(6) I haven't decided how the foods bought with Thurgadin Bounty Tokens and Fame Points will be handled. The obvious options are to either ignore them, remove them, or to include them as ingredients in recipes. In keeping with the whimsical nature of the tradeskill, I'm up for hearing opinions on those, and if you've got a clever idea that isn't one of those 3 obvious options, I'd love to hear that, too.

(7) I'm not sure yet if we can rename the tradeskill to "Cooking". I want to, but if there's some place even as remote as the Wizard Trainer skill list still saying "Baking" instead of "Cooking", then the skill rename is not okay despite making sense.


Edited to add:

(8) The concern of bank space due to having possibly 50 slots taken up by "Gnome-shaped Cookie Cutter" and "Barbarian-shaped Cookie Cutter" and "Wok" and "Cooking Pot" and "Muffin Tins" and "Fish Boning Knife" is one that I'm mostly turning a deaf ear to. If you want to packrat hoard every possible reuseable cooking item, then make a new character to serve as a bank mule and store them on that character or something. Those types of things shouldn't be [NO DROP], so you shouldn't have to keep them on your main character at all times.
 
A few thoughts:
4) On live, when they wanted people to stop farming the Freeport guards at the gates, they made them max level/Hp, and possibly invulnerable(?). Seems we should be able to do the same for the guards at the gates here, too. Set them all level 70, with 11's across the board. There is other Newport guards, in CH and the badlands, people can go farm those if the want the meat, or farm guards inside the city.
6) Easiest option is to ignore them, they are a special "other" reward. Those will be there for people who don't care to tradeskill their own.
8) Accounts are free, store them elsewhere. I agree 1K %

Rest of it sounds pretty cool so far. And a recipe, as long as I am here:

Hearty Heartwood Salad
2 Vegtables
1 Berries
1 Treantnuts
1 Manticore Heart
1 Glass Bowl

possible stats of +sta and +hp?

Make an item like the one that drops from Ikky Maps. I understand this item to summon, at random, 1 of 20ish clickies. Could you make an item called "The Kitchen Sink" that will summon no rent versions of a bunch of cooking supplies? I admit that I don't have quite a handle on the client limitations, but this could be a space saving idea.
 
things n stuff

Hooray that this discussion is still open! For myself, I didn’t so much do these as “sets” with any intent or hope that they be adopted wholesale. It’s more a way for me to submit ideas as they come, without losing track of what I’ve done in the whole boatload of things I’ve already posted. Also to give lots of options since I’m sure some will be more appealing to staff than others for some reason or another. I somehow managed to dump the ENTIRE folder I had on my pin drive for submitted recipes, as well as things I had in the works, so I haven’t touched this in a while.

I’ve tried to hit most every highlight I’ve seen request for, be it people I spoke to in game with suggestions on cool effects, or what was asked for here. Thus there is everything from (no shit I swear) can of whoop ass, to strange effects and stats, to junk you could buy just to level the skill. I’ll think more on something super whimsical and see if I can contribute anything along those lines. I had a few ideas in the works using some Murk drops that don’t sound real food like, but I have to reconstruct it as I lost my notes.

Suggestion for #4 would be to create some “new” Newport Guardsmen to spawn somewhere other than where newbies need them right at the gates. It would be as simple as using the same NPC stats already in place, except you could name them “Idle Newport Guardsmen” and have them sitting in a couple unused corners of that huge ass Newport newbie zone, playing cards and drinking or somesuch. Have only these guardsmen drop the meat, and give them no negative NP faction hit. Hell if you really wanna work with it, give a short bit of lore from one of the “real” Newport guards where they explain these guys got a buncha nice civilians killed with their slacker ways, and while a guard would never go in for revenge, if you happened to do so, then the rest of them might turn a blind eye. You could even make the meat NPCs unattackable to anyone who hadn’t queued up the text. If it bothers anyone to have them in Newport, put them out in Centaur Hills somewhere. People rarely fight there other than the Beetle Queen, and it's not much further away.

Perhaps a solution for the Thurgadin and Fame Points foods would be to leave the current ones as they are and add some upgraded versions, or new foods altogether. The new foods would cost the same amount of tokens or fame points, but would be accessible only to bakers of a certain level. If I make my own Deepmetal armor, I get all the pristine bonuses. You could do something similar here, a “pristine food” if you will. To me it’s a solution covering everything. It gives tradeskillers a figurative cookie, without taking anything away from bounty hunters that they have become accustomed to having.

I couldn’t agree more about the cooking implement slot problem being a non-issue. I don’t know too many serious tradeskillers who don’t have mules out the wazoo.

4) Just a suggestion. Populate the guard post in West Plaguelands with level appropriate (for the zone) Newport guards. They can be an expeditionary force sent to the area by the guards of Newport to judge the feasibility of expanding/creating a safe trade route through Shadowdale in conjunction with the Council of Innovation with an eye toward eventually resettling Newport at some point in the future. This could be also be tied in with the Priests/Paladins of Althuna, due to their desire to eventually reclaim their temple in Freeport. This would give people a place to farm the meat in a zone that is largely unused/unpopulated. It would also create an area of relative safety in the zone for people hunting there who run into problems (when not farmed for the juicy guardsman steak). I realize this suggestion has plenty of plot/story holes in it, for which I apologize. I'm not as versed in Dalayan lore as I would like to be, but perhaps an outline of an idea?
 
So, found some old ideas for cooking/brewing... I'll let you figure the significance.

1) Udeni's Royal Gin
2) Heartland Hamark and Cheese Pizza
3) Startt's Special Brew
4) Shadamir's Scaly Stuffed Sausage
5) Kirium's Bacon Explosion
6) Misharr's Muffins of Magnificence

I'm so changing these. If you're one of these six people and want to weigh in on your item thing, this is the time to do so while you have my ear. My plan is for these six recipes to include ingredients that come from Ikisith, but I'm flexible beyond that.
 
Name of Finished Product: Matbar's Apple Pie
Quality of Finished Product (1-100, where 1 is snack/whistle whetter, 15 is an ordinary ration and 100 is miraculous food/drink): 100
Stats of Finished Product (if any): Complete Heal and or Group C.Heal Recast time 2-4 hours
Trivial Skill of Combine: 250
Container used in Combine (oven or mixing bowl): mixing bowl
Items 1-10 used in Combine: 1.apples x3 2. Dough x2 3. Caramel x1 4. Sugar
Notes: Would love to see this in game would be great for soloer's and groups

I will edit this post later as I come up with names or combination ideas for baking. I am much better at seeing a path, or pattern than coming up with cute names for them.

I would like to see a staggered progression of hearty meals. I know having to run back to town for water/food is why I carry 3 stacks of each around with me, but even that seems to go too quickly.

What if skill-wise 40-60 was like in the 20 range for food or drink, 60-80 in the 50s and at 100 you could make food with no stats but max value, 100.

Lets call the first one "Over Cooked Rations" the middle one could be "Week Old Fortified Crackers" and the last one could be "Suspiciously Crunchy Baked Food Thing"
