Effects of Food
Boosted Stats for a Duration
Foods and Meals are capable of boosting your stats ranging from 8% (Normal Quality) to 10% (High Quality). This is important for endgame content such as Extreme Trials or Savage Raids as you need to achieve the highest possible stats you can have when doing these runs.
Duration Can Be Extended
Consuming a meal twice will also double its duration from 30 minutes to 60 minutes so try to cook two of each meal that you are planning to use.
If you belong to a Free Company, you can use the Meat and Mead III action to increase the duration of your meals by 15 minutes. Keep in mind that the action must be used before the meal is consumed to extend it.
Cook High-Quality Meals for Endgame Content
High-Quality meals give the highest stat boost (10%) so try to focus on cooking these types of meals. To craft these, you need to perform enough Touch skills during crafting to increase the quality parameter of the item. Using High-Quality ingredients will also help increase the quality parameter for higher chances of crafting a High-Quality meal.
Increased EXP Gain by 3%
In addition to the boosted stats you get, meals also give the Well Fed buff which increases your EXP gain by 3%. The duration also works in tandem with consuming meals twice to extend the buff to 60 minutes.
