Tier 3 drinks???

[Striider]

Is it just me, or are we hosed on drinks from 20-25? What am I supposed to drink??? I am assuming fayberry juice will be just fayberries, water, and fuel? If not, that sucks we have to subcombine justy to make drinks AND harvest and refine more cinnamon to make the fayberries ready.

I dont remember when I got what recipies, but I make tier 3 drinks for me and my friends (4 is too rare still) and those are fayberry juice, cinnamon fizzlepop, oolong tea, and the steppes coffee drink. All single combines.

Ah good to hear those are single combines, thanks Skarsol. I am having a hard time getting any decent amount of harvested materials from the bushes in Nektulos forest though, I need to find a semi-safe spot in Thundering Steppes I suppose. Any suggestions where to find a good stash of forageables?

Nowhere. :(

Imo, 20-25 is bad design and not that fun... Many receipts not possible to do. Once you get to 25 you can use most of your harvested raw materials. And you can make some of the 'older' receipts that wasn't available earlier. The only positive imo is that some fish receipts starts at 22 so you atleast get something to make xp on. Tier3 provisioning starts at 25. :(

I must do something wrong. For every tea I have to do 2 combines: refine the leaves and then make the tea. How do you make a tea in 1 step?

One more note: Not sure if gin is bugged or if it is intended. With gin I get +30power, with oolong tea or steppes coffee or gin and juice I get +53(?)power. Haven't checked the other tier3 drinks yet.

And yes, I really really really hate that I can refine the harvested stuff, could make a final product but have to wait 2 or 3 levels because I can't use the refined material to make an interim product (like malted rye -> gin -> gin tonic or refined oolong tea leaves -> oolong tea -> fayberry oolong tea). SOE should take a look at this.

Oh, whoops, I was wrong about the tea. I end up making the tea cause I always seem to have the most of that.
