metabolism AA

[quyrean]

ok, sorry, im not trying to start something here, and I did do a search, but I was told by a usually reliable soruce that this skill is not working. Has anyone noticed this, or was my friend misinformed?

thanks,

Works fine for me, with metabolism 3 i only need the half. Mostly i have MTP or Justicefruitpie and Quenos Tea with me.

Hehe

Metab3 is a godsend. And even more so to any caster that uses a horse.

It does in fact work perfectly.

[Bregalad]

Yeah, I have Metabolism 3. Cuts down food consumption greatly. If you use horse a lot, it's especially helpful.

Useful with a horse?

Now I'm curious.
Why is this more useful if you have a horse?

[Taraddar]

It's especially useful with horses because horses increase your rate of consumption by a noticable amount for me. Personally it made it almost impossible to use stat food/drinks because i would just go threw food/water so fast when using a horse even with the longest lasting foods/drinks. Metabolism makes a very noticable difference in how much food you consume especially when you use a horse. I suspect that the 2 might not stack correctly. IE if food last 1 hour normally and a horse doubles your consumption rate it would only last half an hour. Metabolism then halfs your consumption rate which collectively would put you back down at the food lasting 1 hour. It makes so much of a difference tho that I suspect that metabolism might work off your base consumption rate ignoring the horses modifier so that hour food ends up lasting 2 hours even when your using a horse. Never actually tried testing things out and these numbers are compleately made up but all I know is metabolism 3 makes an easily noticable and significant difference in how fast I consume food especially when dealing with a horse.

Working for me...

I've got Metabolism 3 as well and I love it! Mine's working fine, I'm still using the same Qeynos Tea and Justice Pie I've had for a month.

Even Metabo 1 is a huge improvement over not having it. Granted there are far more important AAs to have, but if you have AA to burn, put em to metabo. Some people have even skipped REGEN 1-3 and gone METABO 1-3 (well, non monks/tanks).

I had my BPP's in my main food slot for well over 6 hours last night and only had to forefeed once to keep them from being consumed, and I was on a horse a good 75-80% of the night doing PoTime.
