Jex 1104 Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) Hey let's have a thread where you can ask a quick question for a quick answer. With the continuing state of change there's always going to be new answers and it's be a great thread to read through as it builds to glean good information. I reckon we should add tips in too, but you only get to do that if you answer a question :) First question, What can you cook in a cooking pot and do you need water in it? :) Edited October 2, 2014 by Jexter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jukaga 271 Posted October 2, 2014 Burned meat, no need for water.What's the point then, can't you just cook it on a fire without a pot? Well hunting/cooking serves 0 purpose right now anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mor (DayZ) 57 Posted October 3, 2014 (edited) Is the info at http://dayzdb.com/guide/11-standalone-status-effects accurate? I am looking at the Food Poisoning effect for water (-13.3% Water/sec) it seem VERY extreme. (its about 75% of your water in 10 seconds?!) If not, then i'd appreciate a link to a more accurate\updated source. Edited October 3, 2014 by Mor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J4G 92 Posted October 3, 2014 What's the point then, can't you just cook it on a fire without a pot? Well hunting/cooking serves 0 purpose right now anyways.You can cook on fireplace without pot and pans and meat is going to be fine.Gas stoves seems to be still bugged, BTW im not tested coocing at 0.49 or 0.5 yet.

Jex 1104 Posted October 3, 2014 I thought you could could cook rice, but it seems you can't. As soon as I find game, Roasted pig or venison with a mixture of fresh cooked vegetables in a red berry sauce followed by a rice pudding using the rice and powered milk with sliced banana's added. Fuck! Now I'm hungry. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mor (DayZ) 57 Posted October 4, 2014 (edited) Soo.. is there anyone who can solve\explain to me the mystery of the various -16%water\sec stages.

pillock 850 Posted October 20, 2014 Which boots does the combat knife go in? Military boots (not combat or jungle). Never seen a combat knife, though, so it's irrelevant. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
