Innate Metabolism

[hooden]

Before I offer a suggestion, I would like to ask a question. Indeed, the very answer may invalidate the suggestion to follow.

With that said, why does innate metabolism only effect food consumption? Is it perhaps a bug, an oversight, or otherwise?

Almost undoubtedly you see where I am going. I would like to suggest that innate metabolism also effect drink consumption. I do not feel we need to do in the topic of how there are so many subpar AA's, but innate metabolism would certainly fall under the "fluff" category in most peoples' opinions. I really do not see this change as being overpowering and at the moment, I can see no reason as to why this change would be a bad one.

Playing a halfling i don't really see why this is needed. Innate Metabolism were the first 3 aa's i bought, ever. And i must say that i don't see any problem with this not affection drinking, but perhaps that is because halflings don't appear to be drinking at a faster rate. So with Innate Metabolism 3 my food (Ration)/drink (Water flask) consumption seems pretty equal.

As an Iksar (Innate Forage 50) I always run out of water unless I buy some, whereas I am still full of food (foraged). Note that I haven't bought Innate Metabolism yet. There's simply no point in doing it unless it'd affect drink consumption as well.

This is partially due to the flaws inherent in forage. It seems there is and equal chance to forage all availible items and there are about 7 food items and 1 water item.

It still is a fact, the reasons why it is that way aren't important, at least not for this topic.
