Broken Food Buff Stacking

I would like to bring attention to a broken food buff stacking mechanic. The food from what seems like basic intended mechanics it is not possible to stack any of the “Basic Food” buff or even the “Attribute food” but the “Trade Skill Food” is broken in a strange and I bet unintended way.

Basic & Attribute foods override the healing over time buffs when another food is eaten to either refresh or change the buff. When eating Trade Skill Food from low tier to high tier ( 1 → 5) in that order the healing over time buffs stack. it is possible to obtain 5 stacks healing buff of " 1% of max health every 2.5 seconds" from just the Trade Skill food.

this can then be combined with one each of the Basic and Trait Food to have 7 total buffs that provide the ’ 1% HP every 2.5s ’
max buffs

This would give any person that runs these buffs a very large healing advantage over any enemy.

I have also noticed the gathering Luck Foods buffs only allows you to run one at a time. I am not sure if this is intended but if I am running Luck for Mining from eating a Potato meal and then eat a corn Meal for Harvesting Luck I lose the Luck for Mining. Is this intended?

Does a Mod saw that ? is AGS aware of this bug … think about this bug and exploit in wars and PVP ! or even unbeatable against Monsters in PVE World

They are aware of it, you can find it in the bug megathreat. Buff Food Stacking is listed there :wink:
