Mechanics & Scaling
Cooking is a professional skill. Master Chef Omelette uses the 90.0–120.0 recipe window, 2 Eggs, 1 Sack of Flour, 1 Cheese Wedge and a nearby heat source. It is ordinary food with Fill Factor 8 and no special combat, stat, PvP or PvM bonus. Cooking 80 plus Camping 80 is reserved for a future system and gives no current pet-food bonus.
