History — Culinarian
Culinarian is the sixth crafting discipline, available to all classes from the Craft menu. Culinarians cook Pet Food — specialised meals that grow your pet's four core stats and determine its evolution path. Unlike a simple power meter, the Culinarian system works like a companion nurturing game: what you feed shapes what your pet becomes.
The Four Pet Stats
Every pet has four stats that grow from feeding. Pet Level (0–100) is derived automatically: level = floor(total stat points ÷ 5).
| Stat | Effect |
|---|---|
| ◆ Might | Increases raw damage output (scales with Tamer's SPI) |
| ▲ Speed | Increases hit rate (up to +20%) and critical chance (up to +12%) |
| ■ Fortitude | Increases armour piercing from 40% bypass up to 90% |
| ★ Arcana | When dominant (>35% of total), pet scales with INT instead of SPI |
Pet Evolution
At level milestones your pet evolves into a new form based on its dominant stat. The form name changes how the pet is described in combat and in your pet panel.
| Level | Might | Speed | Fortitude | Arcana | Balanced |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1–9 | Hatchling (all forms) | ||||
| 10–29 | Ravager Pup | Swift Cub | Bulwark Cub | Arcane Cub | Wild Cub |
| 30–59 | Ravager | Stalker | Guardian | Familiar | Wild Beast |
| 60–99 | Alpha Ravager | Phantom Stalker | Iron Guardian | Arcane Familiar | Ancient Beast |
| 100 | Warlord | Shadowblade | Fortress | Spellweave | Primordial |
A stat is considered dominant when it exceeds 35% of your pet's total stat points. If no stat clears that threshold the pet takes the Balanced form instead.
Culinarian Skill
Like all crafting disciplines, Culinarian has a skill from 0 to 100. Every successful cook increases your skill. Higher skill unlocks more powerful recipes.
Cooking a Meal
- Open the Craft menu and select the Culinarian tab.
- Recipes you meet the skill requirement for are shown in full; locked recipes appear greyed out with the required skill level.
- Ensure you have the required gathered resources in your resource inventory.
- Click Cook on the desired recipe. The ingredients are consumed and the pet food is added to your item inventory.
Feeding Your Pet
- Open the Craft menu and select the Culinarian tab to cook food.
- Open your Pet panel and click a food item to feed it. Stat gains are permanent and cumulative.
- At level 100 the pet has reached its pinnacle and can no longer be fed.
Pet Food Recipes
Each food biases different stats. Higher tiers give more total stat points per feeding and level the pet faster. Tier 5 recipes require boss materials from dungeons.
