Core Keeper Food Buff Guide (Patch 3.8)

Plant/Meat Buffs

With perk buff duration extended + only discussing golden plants and not lower tiered.

1. Golden Glow Tulip gives 10.5 glow + 4.35% attack speed at epic tier
2. Golden Heart Berry gives 75% max hp + 6.6 hp/sec for 20 ثانية + 26.65% melee damage at epic tier
3. Golden Larva Meat gives 25% critical hit chance + 6 life on melee hit at epic tier
4. Golden Bomb Pepper gives 40.35% سرعة الحركة + 4.5% melee attack speed at epic tier
5. Golden Carrock gives 39 درع + 13.5% chance to knockback at epic tier
6. Golden Puffingi gives 16.5% reduced damage taken from bosses + 5.85 hp/sec for 20 ثانية + 21% damage against bosses at epic tier

ملحوظة: The following plants/meat below can be used for cooking along with other fishes, لكن, they do not give big enough buffs compared to their counter part fishes that gives higher value in buffs.

1. Golden Heart Berry – 75 max hp + 6.6 hp/sec for 20 ثانية + 25.65% melee damage at epic tier
   Reason: The main reason why I say not to use this is because 2/3 buffs it has are way better on Mold Shark 57.9% melee damage) + Azure Feather Fish (12.2 hp/sec for 20 ثانية). لكن, if you are looking to temporary boost your max hp, this is the best consumable in game that will give you a whooping 75 temporary max hp.
2. Golden Bomb Pepper – 40.35% سرعة الحركة + 4.5% melee attack speed at epic tier
   Reason: This item is just as common as the golden heart berry when you get to max level gardening. لكن, I believe this should be use for making bombs and other things in game. Spirit Veil fish gives a disgusting amount of 54.3% movement speed at epic tier and Pink Palace Fish gives a slightly bit more melee attack speed 4.95% at epic tier.

FISH BUFFS

With perk buff duration extended.

• Astral jelly gives 94 fishing at epic tier (7mins 30 ثانية)
• Spirit Veil gives 54.3% movement speed at epic tier (1دقيقة 18 ثانية)
• Pink Palace Fish gives 5% melee attack speed at epic tier (7mins 30 ثانية)

• Mold Shark gives 57.9% melee damage at epic tier (7mins 30 ثانية)
• Rot Fish gives 30 sec immunity to mold at epic tier (30 ثانية)

ملحوظة: The following fishes below does not give a big enough impact at end game to be used EVEN at epic tier versions of their buff (personal opinion)

• رأس النافزة الخضراء – Immune to acid damage for 30 ثانية
  Reason: You do not need this if you are in end game level. لكن, if we do encounter bosses/enemies that deals acid damage as base damage, this will be great!
• رأس النافزة الأصفر – Immune to being slowed by slime for 30 ثانية
  Reason: End game level you can have around 198%-200% سرعة الحركة. You can outrun things in Mold Dungeon and Slime Grounds
• الفك الصخري – 3.75 HP/Sec + 23.85% أضرار المشاجرة ل 7 mins and 30 ثانية
  Reason: We got Mold Shark that gives 57.9% melee damage, you do not need this Rock Jaw anymore. بالإضافة إلى, we have things that gives better hp per second (azure feather fish)
• جوهرة السلطعون – 21 درع ل 7 mins and 30 ثواني
  Reason: Golden Carrock plants will give you more armor (39 amor). Black Sea Urchin will give you also more armor (33 درع) و 22 (thorn dmg)
• مصاص الدماء ثعبان البحر – 4.5 life melee on hit for 7 mins and 30 ثانية + 5.25 hp/sec for 20 ثانية
  Reason: Golden Larva meat will give you 6 life melee on hit + 24% فرصة النقد. Also Azure feather fish will give you 12.2 hp per second for 20 ثواني
• Crown Squid – 15% chance to knockback for 7 mins and 30 ثواني.
  Reason: No in-game content that requires knockback yet.
• Emerald Feather Fish – 10.% crit chance for 7 mins 30 ثانية + 43.5% ماكس HP ل 7 mins and 30 ثانية
  Reason: This fish by no means is a slacker. It is the only fish in game that gives temporary max hp buff. لكن, do you need to use this? لا, the golden heart berry gives you 75 max HP for 7 mins and 30 ثانية. Also better to use Heart Berry for potions.
• Black Steel Urchin – 33 درع + 22.5 thorn dmg for 7 mins and 30 ثانية.
  Reason: Subjective to use this fish really. Golden carrock will give you more armor boost. Thorn damage isn’t helpful just yet in terms of gameplay, making it useless buff in my opinion.

Cooking Example

One of the more popular dishes that can be easily crafted is the Mold Shark gives 57.9% melee damage at epic tier (7mins 30 ثانية) + Golden Puffingi gives 16.5% reduced damage taken from bosses + 5.85 hp per sec for 20 ثانية + 21% damage against bosses at epic tier

The result would be:

Epic Moldy Mold Cheese:

• + 48 طعام
• + 16% reduced dmg taken from bosses
• + 7.2% hp/sec for 26 ثانية
• + 21% dmg against bosses for 1 دقيقة 18 ثانية
• + 57.9% أضرار المشاجرة ل 7 mins 30 ثانية

نصائح

1. Combine different fish + plants with different buffs to maximize the utility of your food.
2. Try not to combine things with the same buff, it will just be redundant and it will not stack.
3. Knowing this guide, plan ahead and save your best fishes/golden plants for the best combo.
4. For early-mid game use Normal Bomb pepper + normal heart berry to create hearty pepper wrap. Trust me, you get lots of these when you start farming.
