Welcome! The food aspect of the game is very interesting to me, and I wrote up my own thoughts and suggestions here: Īs far as getting more food per time, if you can find frog ponds (at least 3 in a group), you can get more meat that you know what to do with. In that case, Drying Racks don't spoil your jerkies.Įdit: Brain has been derpy tonight. Should note that he's posting this in General Discussion, so he might not be playing on RoG. Hey, more info helps! Yep, you should look into getting an Ice Box asap, especially if you have the DLC. Also pick any mushrooms you find to use as fillers in the crock pot instead of your berries. In terms of other food sources, my usual go to is killing Spiders, Catcoons, Volt Goats, Vultures, Rabbits and Werepigs.
It can be really handy to help you manage your food better.
I will say though Drying Racks are handy for preserving meat that is about to rot since it'll start off again as a fresh jerky with a 20 day spoil time.Īnd even though it may be redundant to you at the moment, finding a chess peice with a few mobs around it, killing them and obtaining Gears is something you should look at in order to make an Ice Box, which keeps food fresh twice as long. Opposed to eaten individually which works out as - Small morsel 12.5 and 3 cooked berries at 12.5 = 50 HungerĮven better when you have Monster Meat which albeit recovers 18.5 hunger at the cost of health and sanity, but even so it still falls short of the 62.5 you'll get from the Crock Pot.Īs I'm typing this aredshroom has just beaten me to the punch xD
Make sure you're cooking them as well - Uncooked recovers 9.4 hunger, cooked recovers 12.5 so it's better that way.Ĭrock Pots are really good but resource heavy and only start to really shine when you've got meat to add in there.įor instance, one meat (small morsel, monster meat included) plus 3 berries recovers 62.5 Hunger I've always got it set to crock pot recipes btw xDįirst off, berry bushes are good, but they take a few days to grow back berries, and you'll have to re-fertilize them every 6-8 harvests I think it is. Well hopefully you've got the wiki bookmarked, just in case you haven't. Always remember, monster meat counts as 1 big meat, but never put more than one in. If you have a steady supply of eggs whether from Tallbirds or from a birdcage, try making Bacon and Eggs (2 eggs + 2 big meats). If you have a steady supply of big meats, try Meaty Stew (2 small meats + 2 big meats). Honey Nuggets (1 small meat + 2 berries/fruit + 1 honey) are the lesser equivalent of Honey Ham, but still great. Honey is a great ingredient for Honey Ham (2 Big Meats + 2 Honey), but you'll need to make Bee Boxes for that. I'm not gonna go into too much detail, but try putting a balanced amount of meat and fruit/veg in the crockpot. Do not throw your 1 carrot + 3 berries in the pot! It's not worth it, haha.
Meanwhile, if you have meat (morsels/monster meat) and a farm of berries, try starting out with meatballs (1 meat + 3 veggies/fruit). Try this crockpot simulator, you can play around.
