Is this just a hokey little addition or does it actually have some practical use? It seems like the food effects from fish are very minimal and short-lived. What good is it? Does the galka fare just as poorly with their raw meat eating ability?

It's SE's way of making this game seem "realistic". Cats eating fish makes perfect sense, but where did the Galka and raw meat come from?

It helps if you're cheap or completely out of food and happen to have fish available. But keep in mind cooked meals will always give greater stat improvements than uncooked meat/fish will ever give.

Why can't a hume eat raw fish?! I mean it should at least give us food poisoning or something.

In regards to fish, we really need a puffer dish that gives really really nice stats but also has a 10% chance of instant KO when you eat it.

As for fish i'm not all that familiar, I have no mithra chars. My galka mule liked to chow down on sheep meat as a cheap food alternative while leveling in kons.highlands and farming mary's horn. Not great stats but better than nothing^^

I'm not overthinking this. I just don't like fluff. Give me things that are practical and will legitimately help me with my gameplay. Is that too much to ask?

This is especially true with the NPC fellow. That whole thing is full of major fluff. It is a house of cards in terms of functionality.

Galka can eat raw uncooked meat, and mithra can eat raw uncooked fish. However cooked items will always yield stronger stat benefits than raw items ever will.

Same way Galka can eat raw meat (and the only race that can), mithra can eat raw fish.

You'll give the cookie monster a run for his money!

I love 0.3 skillup, fail but no item loss... That's just the perfect synth!

I know it's for the sake of settling undiscovered information but I would kill any galka in their sleep that ate raw dragon meat that could have been sold and cooked.
