New Profession: Cooking

brewofamaziness

I am sure this has been brought up before but I really want to bring it up myself, mainly because of Donaar Blitz'en's Yum Yum Hut.
(For those outside the loop, Donaar is the Dragonborn Paladin of Bahamut who is a member of C Team for Acquisitions Incorporated.)

I am not proposing a way to make potions as that would ruin a few things in game, but rather a different approach: Food Items with Buffs.

Now food items already exist in game but are really only available during special events or holidays. I think it would really cool to have a full on Cooking Profession and have food that provided buffs that could only be obtained via the profession.

Thoughts?

Well there are also the guild foods you can buy... I mean i for one am for it, i love professions, so adding in any professions adds more fun for me.. But why not just use the guild food

I'd prefer them making the crafting they've already implemented be useful beyond RP farming by alt armies and MW professions that have a barrier to entry generally too high for typical players, and so mostly just serve to allow already-rich hardcore players to have unlimited wealth and generally control the market.......

I'd love to see stats on which Profession projects actual get run. I'm sure about 15-20 projects make up about 95% of profession utilization, which means the vast bulk of it is a huge waste of space. I can't wait to see what sort of rework their bringing in mod15.

stove, rolling pin, chef's knife, mixing bowl

but what level would usable food items be produced

25?? few professions produce anything useful at level 25

MC1 2 3 4 ??

MC 4 maybe, but then again . . . useful items . . . for the most part useful items from professions seem to be in a very narrow range around Stronghold decorations and parts to make other MCx items

I already stash a lot of guild food and summer event food. So much that my characters cannot eat them fast enough. I want to craft a refrigerator to store them.
