Buffs

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 (60 minutes 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.
  • Candle Buff (from candles made with Candle Making). Lasts 90 minutes.
  • Potions:
    • Many potions will stack if they do not buff the same stat.
    • Example potion: gives an hour of +10% earned combat XP.
  • Meditation:
    • Most useful to players using Unarmed.
    • There are meditation recipes that give extra buffs like cold resistance.
    • Using a Meditation Stool will substantially increase the buff duration.
  • Calligraphy:
    • Most useful for players using the Sword skill.
    • There are calligraphy recipes that buff slashing, piercing, crushing, or cold damage, reduce rage, etc.
    • Using a Calligraphy Bench will increase the buff duration.
  • Buffs from Art Appreciation
  • Augury gives one hour buffs with many effects.

Medium term buffs (10 to 15 minutes)

  • Certain advanced player abilities give an increase to Haste : being able to move more quickly.
  • Through Alchemy several potions or drugs can be made that either boost damage done or increase the players resistance to certain damage types.
  • Alcohol buffs last 15 minutes, 3 beers and 1 liquor can be stacked.


Short term buffs (up to a minute)

  • These are mostly Buffs from Combat Skill Abilities.
