6. Crayfish with Vegetables
Follow this step-by-step-instruction exactly to be able to craft Crayfish with Vegetables:
- 5x Grey Bait Material (for a total of 500,000 silver)
- 1x Red Bait Material (150,000 silver)
- 2x Orange Bait Material (for a total of 400,000 silver)
Using the Bait Material will create the Golden Bait for Crayfish you’ll need to pick up the Crayfish. The buffs disappear when you triport, so you must eat them when you’re already at the Crayfish location!
7. Vernese Brisket
Note: Crafting Vernese Brisket requires you to interact with the brisket every 2 hours (real-time!). When a step in the process is finished, you’ll only have 10 minutes to interact or it will expire and transform into Ruined Brisket. If this happens, you’ll need to start again from the beginning.
So when you’re cooking Vernese Brisket make sure you have an 8-hour time frame where you can get into the game every two hours.
8. Magical Vernese Brandy
Magical Vernese Brandy is a reward when reaching Trusted in rapport with Thar.
It is also needed to reach hidden areas in Bellion Ruins (Mokoko Seed locations). As with the Kandarian Cold Lager, you can get a refill at the cook after you used Magical Vernese Brandy.
