==Gourmand Overview=='''Gourmand''' is a skill that lets you get the most value out of regenerative foods. It is usually first obtained by eating hardtack found in a sack or porridge cooked by [[Lawara]] on the starter island Island of [[Anagoge]]. It is raised most effectively by eating every single type of unique consumable meal or drink that you come across. Such foods can be [[Cooking|cooked]], bought from vendors, or simply gathered (for example Large Strawberries). Some rare foods may be obtained as rewards for [[Quests|performing favors]] for or [[Hang Out|hanging out]] with various NPCs.=== In-Game Description ===The art of appreciating what you eat. Every level of the Gourmand skill increases the duration of meal bonuses by 30 seconds. The main way to earn Gourmand XP is by eating foods you've never eaten before.===ExperienceTraining Gourmand ===* Each kind of food eaten will reward Bonus Experience ''the first time'' they are eaten. Typically this is 10 times the Meal Level, but some of the lower-level food it's different.

== Gourmand Mechanics ==
===Types of Foods===
The most common foods are "Meals". These give you tons out-of-combat regen, and a bit of in-combat regen. Meals can be further divided into solid foods vs drinks. Foods have better regen than drinks of the equivalent level, but drinks increase your max Power. You only have ONE Meal active at any time.
The other foods are "Instant Snacks". These don't give you any kind of regen/bonuses, instead they restore flat amounts of health and power. You can eat Instant Snacks whenever you want, as long as you don't run out of Metabolism.
