Players in combat are expected to have at least a food buff.

Weekend buffs

• The game developers can choose to have a buff active during weekends or holidays.

(Examples : 10% chance to yield extra items from Gardening or picking mushrooms; increase in the money given when turning in workorders.)

Long term buffs (an hour or more)

• Food, usually from Cooking:
  • Meals and Snacks are different and stack.
  • However eating multiple meals will not stack. Only the highest level food buff will be displayed. Food buffs usually give regeneration of Health and Power.
  • Most foods will also give a straight increase in the total amount of Health or Power the player has.
• Nature Appreciation 1 (appreciate a flower): increases maximum Power for 1 hour.
• Nature Appreciation 2 (appreciate a bouquet, arrangement, or display): buffs for 4 hours.
  • One flower and one bouquet buff can stack.
  • Example bouquet buff: Gardening Luck, +10% chance to yield 2 items while Gardening instead of 1.
• Music Performance (you or fellow players have made music by using a musical instrument):
  • Increase in earned combat XP.
  • Bonus out-of-combat Armor regeneration.
• Dance Appreciation (while player-music was made, other players did an Interpretive Dance):
  • Increase in crafting XP.
  • Increase in Metabolism.
• Potions:
  • Many potions will stack if they do not buff the same stat.
  • Example potion:

• Augury gives one hour buffs with many effects.
