Cooking

This article has a guide here.

Cooking is a skill that allows players to convert raw food into cooked food. Cooked food is used to restore lost health during combat or while training agility. Cooked food also restores more health than raw food. Some foods have special effects that improve other activities.

Training

Cooking is trained by cooking raw food. Each successfully cooked piece of food gives cooking experience. Raw, cookable food and ingredients can be obtained by fishing, farming and by killing mobs that drop meat.

Cooking meats and fish always requires a fire. Fires can be either player-made through firemaking or eternal fires in that exist in the world. Eternal fires never go out. Left clicking a fire with raw food in hand starts cooking process which cooks the raw food one piece at a time. All food of same type is cooked automatically in succession once started. Once cooked, raw food is replaced with cooked food. The cooking process ends when all raw food is cooked, a different food is selected for cooking, player walks moves or if the fire goes out. Cooking over a fire has a small chance of burning the food which makes it disappear. The cooking cape has an effect that prevents burning food when cooking.

Foods other than meats or fish are cooked using a smoker. Right clicking a smoker opens a menu from which the type of food to be cooked can be chosen. Other than that, cooking with a smoker works very much the same as with fire.

Tips

• It is a good idea to train cooking along with fishing as cooking fish currently gives more experience than cooking recipes
• Train cooking during Double Exp and fishing at other times so that your cooking level keeps up with your fishing level
