If you love cooking and playing Guild Wars 2, you’ll be delighted to know that the game has an extensive cooking system that allows you to create delicious food and drinks to enhance your performance in the game. In this blog post, we’ll take you through the basics of cooking recipes in GW2 and help you unlock the full potential of your kitchen.
Firstly, you’ll need to obtain Recipes and Ingredients. Recipes are obtained by speaking with Crafters, Renown Heart NPCs, and venders. You can also find recipes scattered around the world or unlocked by leveling up your cooking skill. Ingredients can be gathered by harvesting nodes, purchasing from vendors or previous methods mentioned.
With the necessary ingredients and recipe, now it’s time to cook! The most basic recipes require a single ingredient; however, you can level up your cooking skill to unlock advanced recipes that require more ingredients and grant powerful buffs to your character. You will need a cook station to begin cooking, and there are several found throughout the world.
One of the unique aspects of the cooking system in GW2 is pairing ingredients, which you can see by filtering the recipe tabs. These ingredient pairs can give you bonus effects so experiment around and see which pairs you like best!
As you level up your cooking skill, you will unlock rewards, such as the Sous Chef title and Chef’s Hat. You can also participate in the Daily Crafting Tier 1 or Tier 2 achievements that offer bonus rewards, including Crafting Tokens and Account-Bound experience boosts.
Cooking in GW2 is an easy and enjoyable skill to level up to unlock great tasting meals in-game with useful bonuses, as well as something fun to have while adventuring throughout Tyria. Don’t wait and dive in today!
