 There are two skills for the actual cooking "Cooking" and "Advanced Cooking", however it also relies on "Crafting Appliances" and it's sub-skills. If you just want to cook that roadkill weasel, then I think even 1 point in cooking will be enough. It won't taste good, and you won't impress anyone with it, but you won't go hungry. Also the cooking system is a precursor to Alchemy, so the cooking system gives you hints as to how you would proceed to make one potion or another. For example right now if you cook a Spider Queen, that will make a poisonous meal. Alchemy is all about taking the things found in the food system and trying to exaggerate those traits. Right now you can really cook with almost anything, Risar, Wood, Leather, Bone, anything can really be thrown into a pot and made into a some form of a meal. On occasion you would bump into ingredients that have side effects. From making you puke non-stop for 5 minutes, to actually killing you and on the flip side others will heal you. __________________ Share MO with others     |

So, the cooking system will be something of a precursor to the alchemy system. And, he was serious about the possibility of your character getting sick (i.e. puking) from particularly bad meals.

This is GREAT! We can kill someone.. cut them up as a butcher... and feed them to friends or even back to the guy we killed! Maybe you get sick if you eat yourself and puke for 5 minutes. That would be awesome! The sandbox elements are breathtaking. You will not find such gameplay in WoW clone #12311!!
DAWN is looking to be a game changing expansion!

Faux enthusiasm aside, this does sound like a really interesting cooking system, and definitely different from the MMO norm. Experimenting with it should be pretty cool.

I smell a hint of sarcasm here.
If it's not broken, you are not innovating.
