We can cook up some mantis urine all the while black smiths and artisans are crafting Valkyrie sets which are the best equipment in the game..

Yep.. you tell me why did I pick chef...

So well, your best HP/SP recovery food is lv40 (not 50, like, for example, master pots, Valky armors/weaps), and we only got 3 drop recipes, green, and not all the blue ones....

I'm seriously considering make me a good stock of the foods I use and change profession to something more useful/enjoyable (not talking about profits).

Thanks.

Chef is so stunted in leveling compared to other jobs. The healing food items and buff items are really nice, and the exp u get for making them is great, BUT there are no prep-creation items alike to the other jobs that boost you up in lvls before you even start making the actual products. The prep-creation items are dumb for chef as well, depleting your stores of the 5 monster dropped mats (spirit of ruin, monster frag etc.) VERY quickly. Other jobs need to start creating better mats from them at lvl 30, where as chef has their own special mats, that take 3 of the monster dropped mats to make 1, at way lower lvls. You have to hunt A LOT more of these mats to keep up with any of the other jobs in lvling. Furthermore, unlike artisan, the monster dropped job-specific mats are way more spread out than leather and thread. There are countless different mats that will fill your inventory and storage because you wont have enough monster dropped regular mats to keep up with them. It needs to be changed where the chef has job specific mats alike to the other jobs, specifically artisan. Where artisan has leather and thread mats, chef should have herbs and spices or something like that, and not have to create another mat from the monster dropped mats that is specific to chef.

I personally haven't had any problems leveling chef at all. It can be slow to start up and a bit costly, but you get so many mats from rackufs, pecos, Izlude mobs in general, mushrooms and horongs that there's no reason you shouldn't hit 40 with them. After 40, you can cook the green foods (notably SFC) to 50. If you're trying to level by refining the monster stones, you're doing it very wrong.

Yeah, the leveling is actually pretty fast if you get enough monster stones. I mailed a full stack of each kind to my chef from a higher level char and by the time I turned sorc at lvl 25 my chef level was 32.
It's just that if you don't do that (mail stacks from an alt) and you're not playing a character that can farm well by themselves and havent been very lucky on the drops, you run out of those things. Take into account that they sell pretty well as well if you don't have to use all of them, and chef just turns pretty costly.
Oh, and I ended up just selling the stuff I made that I didn't intend to use myself to the store. I tried vending some stuff priced barely above what it cost me in sauces (different kinds, including crit and attack buffs), and someone actually came along and undercut me. At that point I felt it's probably more efficient to not leave my PC on to vend, save on energy bill and use that to buy something from kafra and sell it if I really feel I need money at some point :hmm:

Not to post in a dead topic but I'm at work on a 24hour shift, its the middle of the night and I can't play rag!  I was reading through and found this gem.  Never knew there was a cut off date.  Just curious whats the new word cause here it is 08OCT2013 and still giving out sausages and -_-tails!  I'm pretty sure at this point it would take a good few monthes AT LEAST to dry up the supply most people have.  Not sure what to say about that.

At this point I think we just ahve to pray Master Crafting Professions arrive alongside Master Classes, and level 50-60 cooking recipes along with them.

 

...Which will probably result in the food in teh daily rewards being replaced with those new foods.

You know BRO. If this Game doesn't give Sausage for free every 5 hours, Chef could par with all Alchemists.

I am a new player and i am thinking what is the riht build for Full support one? And the right job class too, i am thinking artisan because of the armors but i am also thinking about a support freak type of priest like choosing chef so that i can add more stats because of the buffs and can also help me heal myself in order to focus on supporting others instead and alchemist because i read about a skill of throw potion and it can heal up to 2,700 instantly but i dont if its true but it would be great and i think it can cause me a bit of sp too, Can anyone help me please? Thanks GUYS

You're better off going with Alchemist. Chef is very expensive to level up and the buff foods they make aren't good unless you get the dungeon drop recipes at higher levels.
