Training (1-99)

Cook the highest level

available until you unlock the Furnace and Pot recipes. Then cook the highest level baked good (furnace) or soup (pot) available. Use

Farming

to maintain the Allotments required for these recipes.

Upgrade the Cooking Fire, Furnace, and Pot to the highest possible level at all times. The lowest requirements for the Furnace and Pot are:

  1. Furnace:

    Level 15
    , 500   Normal Logs, 500   Bronze Bar
  2. Pot:

    Level 25
    , 400   Bronze Bar

Passive cooking will not slow down or speed up training; passive cooking is strictly for gaining more food while cooking. Passive cooking can be used as a way to cook off small amounts of excess fish or allotments for eating or selling, but in general, as it does not provide Skill XP or item Mastery XP, it can be ignored.

Using   Cooking Gloves will increase your chances of successfully cooking, which will increase the rate of training while at low mastery levels by making sure you are more consistently gaining experience.

Alternatively, you can benefit from the lower success chance at low mastery levels by using the

and

Synergy to generate a high level of   Coal Ore. Using this synergy for as long as necessary is highly recommended as the coal output far exceeds that of

, and the extremely high XP rates for cooking with the Furnace and Pot make the loss of experience from failed cooks not as painful as it would be on other skills.

Training (99-120)

At this point, the   Cooking Skillcape should be equipped to maximize success chance, unless the success chance for the item is already high. If the   Maximum Skillcape is unlocked, use it instead for the 5% global xp bonus as well.

Past level 99, many recipes start to require lower leveled cooked foods to craft. For example, the level 104 Furnace craft   Beef Mushroom Stew requires one serving of   Mushroom Soup, which itself requires one serving of   Basic Soup. Since all of these crafts typically have a lower XP/hr rate, it causes the actual XP/hr value of the main craft to be lower than expected.

With all 99+ crafts taken into account and adjusted for their pre-crafts, assuming zero item doubling and item preservation, soups still are the highest XP/hr craft from 99-120.

Level
Item XP/s
99-104   Chicken Soup 88.14
104-114   Beef Mushroom Stew 128.61
114-116   Chicken Cream Mushroom Soup 138.95
116-120   Chilli Frost Crab 149.29

Due to many 99+ recipes requiring other food to craft, many recipes have their XP/hr rates effectively increase as ways to ignore the need for pre-crafts are used, such as item doubling or item preservation. As such, if township has been leveled up enough to purchase   Food Box I and   Food Box II, XP/hr numbers can be boost significantly.   Food Box Is and   Food Box IIs contain all possible pre-crafts used for 99+ cooking with the exception of   Mushroom Soup. This lets you use higher XP/hr while ignoring making their precrafts.

XP/s values if pre-crafts are ignored:

Level
Item XP/s
99-100   Chicken Soup 88.14
100-103   Banana Bread 101.88
103-113   Spicy Chicken Pizza 211.88
113-120   Fancy Meat Pizza 235.625
