Is there a buff for smelting?

Pretty self explanatory, I want to know if there is a drink or food that gives buff for smelting, like the Flaming Humbaba to grinding minerals.

Thanks.

  • I wondered the same and came to the conclusion that there is not unless it is very rare.  Maybe this is something we will be able To learn to make later.  Hmmm, maybe (gag) Fruitcake!

  • I use no no for  smelting, grinding, tinkering/crafting/repairing.   It feels like cheating but when I've tried to drink a flaming humbaba for grinding I find that it is too short lived and precious seconds are lost between the time I drink it and the time I open the appropriate bag with the grinder, choose what to grind, select how much to grind....about a third of the drink's time is gone.

  • Just say yes-yes to No-No!  Really, though, smelting doesn't actually take that much energy, unless you have A LOT of metal rocks.  Especially if compared to crushing.  If I remember correctly, it is 1 energy unit per rock for smelting.

  • @Treesa - You don't need to click on the grinder to grind something. You can click on your stack of ore and select Crush. I will put my flaming hambaba in the same bag as my ores and I usually can get through 3 stacks before the buff wears off. It's just a matter of planning

  • @Green Meanie: Exactly ... moved my Grinder out of tool box into a bag next to the Humbabas. Drink and grind.

  • Humbabas are still kind of effective, but No-No is really cheap compared to the effectiveness of it. I use it everyday before a new day or before I have to log off, and I repair and grind a lot, plus make very very stinky cheese for donations :)  It's awesome. I'm not addicted, I'm in love <3

  • I can usually grind about 250 of one ore on a Flaming Humbaba. I keep my grinder in my drink bag. No no would obviously work great too though, depends if you care about not dying.
