Cooking

Carefully select natural ingredients and turn them into delicious feasts that will make stomachs rumble and mouths water.

The Cooking skill allows you to prepare consumables which can give temporary skilling boosts. Some recipes are simple (like cooking fish) while others are more complex, requiring many materials. With higher cooking levels, you'll have access to more cooking ingredients, better recipes, and special skilling equipment that can boost your cooking efficiency. You can also receive Cooking Chests as a rare drop from training this skill.

Activities

The following activities can be done indefinitely without needing materials. Some have equipment requirements or other requirements that need to be satisfied in order to start the activity.

For activities involving two skills, the player is only eligible to earn chests in skills that have actual level requirements.

So, if the activity has a Cooking level requirement, it will be eligible to drop Cooking Chests.

When performing an activity for a skill, only the primary skill is factored in for the player's equipment bonuses, the "2^nd Skill" will also be affected by the equipment attributes based toward the "1^st Skill" (IE: +1 Exp will apply to the "2^nd Skill" as well).

The following activities are eligible to drop Cooking Chests.

Bonus Experience Sources

No activities give bonus Cooking experience.

Recipes

The following activities are completed through recipes and thus require materials. Additionally, they may have service requirements, usually in the form of a service location. All recipes produce one of the final products by default.

Cooking also gets a bonus of +1 Crafting Outcome per level beyond a Cooking Recipe's level requirement toward crafted items with no cap.

The following activities are eligible to drop Cooking chests.
