The main menu includes a cooking system for food. Use a mix of monster materials and other produce to make dishes, which will also provide different attribute effects to your characters.
Some Ingredients Can Be Changed
A circular arrow in the upper-right corner of an item means that you can swap it for something else. Just simply click the icon to pick a new material. Keep in mind that you can only select replacements from the same category, and you cannot switch it to an entirely different type of object.
Cooking Unlocked in Episode 1
The Cooking feature is unlocked by progressing through the "Healthy Meals" quest, a Side Quest from the early part of Episode 1.
How to Unlock Recipes
Purchase from NPCs
Recipe Rating | Price |
 ★ (Gray) | 50,000 |
 ★★ (Green) | 50,000 |
 ★★★ (Blue) | 150,000 - 200,000 |
The prices for cooking recipes may vary according to their ranking. 3-Star recipes are the most expensive, so make sure to be mindful about purchasing them early in the game.
Brownie is at the Left Side of Hananis
You can check Brownie's location in the map image above. You can also opt to use the tracker.
Reward from the Main Quest
Some Main Quest rewards include Cooking recipes. Items such as the "Minotaur Steak Burger," obtainable early in Ep. 2, have the same effect as the store-bought recipes, so make use of them if you want to save Gold.
Can Be Obtained Through Events
Cooking recipes may sometimes be included in event rewards. Some recipes can't be bought in the shop, so be sure to check the event rewards.
Recommended Recipes & Effects
Legendary Golden Chicken
| Ingredients | Effects |
   Goblin-Style SausageGoblin-Style SpicesTortoiseshell Walnut | Max HP +11% ATK +8.25% Stamina Consumption -13.75% |
Main dishes enhance your health, strength, and energy usage. Because all recipes within the same tier provide identical bonuses, the smartest approach is to select meals based on which ingredients are the easiest to collect.
Swamp Odong Seeds Honey Pancake
| Ingredients | 効果 |
   Gobla BerryGoblin GumweedCrystal Bloom | DEF +8.25% Elemental Weakness DMG +16.5% Capture Proficiency +825 |
It is also recommended to pair the Legendary Golden Chicken with the Swamp Odong Seeds Honey Pancake, since the required ingredients do not overlap with each other, you can craft it using only materials dropped by goblin-type monsters.
Berritastic Shaved Ice
This drink can be used to revive fallen characters. It can also be used in battle as well. This drink is highly recommended to prepare prior to exploring and entering challenges in the game.
When to Use Cooking
Can Be Used In Paths Challenges
The dishes that you have cooked will help you with your HP and attack buff during the Path and Conquest challenges. Since these contents can be skipped once you cleared it for the first time, it is still worth to prepare your dish beforehand especially if your characters are not yet well-built.
Use During Main Quest
The main story bosses are powerful, and the time limits are tight. Buffs from dishes are an important element for progressing through the story smoothly.
When to Use The Dishes
Temporarily Buff Characters
Cooking gives you character enhancement items that basically last for 30 minutes. They are all consumables, and when used, they apply a buff and the item is consumed.
Entree and Side Dish
Cooking has Entrees and Sides, and they can be used at the same time. The stats that are enhanced are different, so be sure to check the effects.
Same Effect Type Will Be Replaced
While the effects of entrees and sides can be activated at the same time, you cannot stack the same effect, for example multiple entree dish effects. The effect will be overwritten, and the original effect will be lost.
Drinks Revive Fallen Characters
Unlike Cooking, Drinks are not an item that you can use as a buff. When you press the button (key) to control an incapacitated ally, a screen will be displayed to revive them with a Drink.
