99 cooking

[madden05pro1]

i am in the process of getting 99 cooking, i am wondering if i should start monks at 84 or keep doing lobs until the no fail lvl of 90 for monks

 

thanks in advance!!!

It would be quicker to just do monks, but I'd just do lobs till 86, then swordfish till 90, then monks to 94, sharks to 95, and rocktail till 99. That way you wont burn anything.

alright, sounds like a good idea, it will take a little bit longer, but not burning anything is worth it :thumbsup:

I did 80 - 90 on monks.. and then 90 - 99 sharks. Yes, you do burn a few.. but that didnt bother me that much..

I suppose it really depends on how much you're willing to spend. I didn't do monks until 90 (and by the way, that's not the no burn rate, they never "stop" burning, even at 99 you can burn them, it's just rare from then on).

Do wines or piecook on lunars until rocktails.

my cooking spreadsheet isn't complete but it's still a good resource:

anyways from what my spreadsheets indicate.

Don't bother cooking sharks, go straight for cavefish/rocktails once you high cooking levels.

Currently cavefish are better profit but less xp. But both training methods are comparable to each other.

 

Wines are also a good option as well, comparable to cavefish/rocktails.

I would recommend making wines to anybody, but you should consider switching to cavefish/rocktails if you're tight on money (make under 2 mil gp/hour)

 

you really shouldn't be using anything else to train cooking other than cavefish, rocktails, and wines.

i'm kind of on a tight budget here, and according to spreadsheet i lose money doing wine, so i don't really think i can afford it atm, i'll do cavefish instead of sharks, then rocktails from 95 to 99

if your budget is that small, then there is something wrong with how you make money.

Look up laura's daily activities guide in the general guides section.

 

All players should be making at least 500k-1000k gp/day from daily activites. That should easily fund cooking with wines.

my budget for this is about 8mil, approximatly how much would i lose from 85 to 95 doing wines?

~9 mil at current prices

you should just earn some extra money and burn it for the sake of training faster.

9 mil is only like 2 weeks of daily activities. not much in the grand scheme of things.

Do sharks from 80 till 99...

 

I burned more monks at 80 than sharks.
