Basic Information[]
Frigid Sandwich is a type of consumable Food that can be cooked in a Cooking Station.
If consumed, a Frigid Sandwich will grant 200 additional points to the maximal health points of all player characters (no matter if F2P or "Pro") and cold/freezing damage over time will be transformed into a healing effect; all for the duration of 15 minutes.
Freeze damage can be taken when the Cold meter/scale has filled (with white color) in cold biomes, near cold blocks or on high altitudes, when certain Creatures deal additional freezing damage over time with their attacks, or when Freeze Bombs (or Snowcubes) are used by players (will only cause damage if PvP is enabled).
Frigid Sandwiches can also be fed to Pets and put on display in/on display containers of all kinds. It is recommended to only feed Frigid Sandwiches to Pets that prefer Frigid Sandwiches as their favorite type of Food.
How to obtain[]
Frigid Sandwiches can be cooked by inserting the necessary ingredients into a Cooking Station. Cooking Stations can be crafted and have to be placed into the game world and activated (by clicking your right mouse button or typing "f" as the default key) in order to be used for cooking.
Since Food can only be placed into display containers but not into the game world as is, it cannot be bought via building kits for Blueprints, because items in display containers of Blueprints are merely "ghost images", not actual items that you could take out and use.
During the annual Christmas-event that lasts for ca. one month from December to January, like during the last Elfi's Wonderland event that started on December 19th 2018 with update R58 and lasted until January 25th 2019, Holiday Gift Boxes randomly spawn on Ice and Snow blocks. These colorful gift boxes can contain 2 or more rarely 4 already cooked Gingerbread Loaves and rather often 1-2 units of Molasses.
Additionally, Trog Trap Events can randomly provide you with 1-2 already cooked Gingerbread Loaves, Frigid Pies, Frigid Sandwiches, Frigid Soups and/or Blizzard Chizzard Eggs in their Reward Holiday Gift Boxes if you manage to successfully complete these timed events. Trog Trap Events can be initiated by placing Trog Traps on the ground. Also, Holiday Loot Bags that can be dropped by Creatures during Trog Trap Events (mainly by Troggington's Minions, may contain the same Food types.
Trog Traps could be obtained during Christmas event-times from free login chests and specific Creatures like Reaudolphs and Reinbeaus; but these traps can also be bought throughout the year via building blocks for player-made Blueprints.
How to unlock the crafting recipe[]
The one recipe that you will need to cook many different kinds of Sandwiches - including Frigid Sandwiches - will be unlocked by cooking or obtaining basic Bread made from Wheat and ordinary blue Water.
Please note that only common Bread (made from wheat and ordinary water) will unlock the recipe for Sandwiches. Baking any other types of Bread (like Bog Bread, Gingerbread Loaf or Tar Bread for example) will currently not unlock any cooking recipes.
The Cooking Station features only 4 recipes that will enable you to cook up to 36 different types of Food depending on the ingredients you will insert into the slots of the Cooking Station.
How to cook[]
In order to cook Frigid Sandwiches, you'll have to place a Cooking Station into the world and activate it (right-click or default key "f") while pointing your cursor at it. Depending on the ingredients that you will insert into the slots after selecting the Sandwich recipe, different kinds of Sandwiches can be produced.
To cook 2 Frigid Sandwiches at a time in a Cooking Station, you'll need to select the recipe for all types of Sandwiches and insert:
- 2x ordinary Bread (no other/special types of Bread will do), made from ordinary blue Water (scooped up from lakes, oceans or rivers without any Power Cell required) and Wheat (grown from Wheat Seeds on tilled soil close to Water)
- either 3 Crisphead Lettuces or 3 Turnips. Both vegetables can be grown on tilled soil near Water) from Seeds that can be processed from Lettuces or Turnips that you can occasionally find growing on the ground, especially in or close to Forests (Lettuce) and Swamplands (Turnips)
- and 3 Blizzard Chizzard Eggs that can only be obtained from tamed Blizzard Chizzard Pets. Blizzard Chizzards usually spawn during the day on Snow in Taigas, Tundras, on frozen Oceans or frozen plains - after they have become your Pets and you have fed them their preferred type of Food
Please note that using green "ordinary" Chizzard Eggs will result in a completely different type of Sandwiches instead -> Egg Sandwiches.
Eggs cannot be found in the Loot Bag of any type of Chizzards when you kill them.
No other combinations of ingredients, especially no other types of Bread can be used to cook Frigid Sandwiches. If other Breads are used, different types of Sandwiches will turn out (see below).
How to use[]
When consuming a Frigid Sandwich, your character will be granted a bonus of 200 points to their maximum Health and cold/freezing will not cause damage, but have a healing effect instead for 15 minutes.
Consuming this Sandwich will not negate nor slow down the cold/freeze meter/scale that shows up when being close to cold blocks like Snow or Ice in cold biomes or on high altitudes on game worlds, but it will reduce the damage that your player character takes over time after the cold scale has filled (with white color) and/or when your player character is dealt additional freezing damage when being attacked by Arctic Mirus, Blizzard Chizzards, Rambeaus, Troggington's Minions, Troggington or Blizzard Chizzard Ice Spies. Also, the Cold damage from Freeze Bombs or Snowcubes will be reduced when PvP is enabled on the player claim and/or game world (enabled by default).
You can consume Frigid Sandwiches by putting a stack of them into your quickbar, selecting the according quickslot and clicking your right mouse button or typing the number of the quickslot. Alternatively you can drag this food (stack) with the left mouse button over your character's 3D model on the right side of the inventory and drop it there.
Only one Frigid Sandwich of a whole stack will automatically be consumed. A short cooldown prevents you from consuming another Frigid Sandwich right away. If you eat more Frigid Sandwiches (by right-clicking or dragging & dropping again) shortly after an already consumed one, the effects/buffs will merely prolonged to 15 minutes anew.
All types of Food can be fed to Pets. Pets cannot starve, but you can only harvest animal materials from them after you have fed them.
Pets that prefer to eat Frigid Sandwiches as their favorite Food will not provide you with their best harvest if you feed them any other types of Sandwich, like a Turnip Sandwich made with a basic Bread and 6 Turnips or a Corrupted Sandwich made with Corrupted Water just for example. According to the same principle, Pets that love Corrupted Sandwiches (for example), will not provide you with their best harvest if you feed them Frigid Sandwiches.
Like nearly all Foodstuff, Frigid Sandwiches can be put on display by placing them into the slots of Wood Planters, Flower Pots, Stone Wall Shelves, Placemats, Galactic Grav-Chambers, Hidden Temple Altars, Frozen Containers, Snow Buried Containers, Holiday Decorative Trees, Holiday Mantles, Cabernatious Cabinets and the like.
Food cannot be rotated when on display, but most display containers can be rotated together with all the items inside of them. Food cannot be placed into the game world directly.
