Basic Information[]
Poisonous Pastry is a type of consumable Food that can be cooked in a Cooking Station.
If consumed, a Poisonous Pastry will cause you to take poison damage for 15 seconds, similarly to a Poison Bomb.
Poisonous Pastries can also be fed to Pets and put on display in/on display containers of all kinds. It is recommended to only feed Poisonous Pastries to Pets that prefer Poisonous Pastries as their favorite type of Food.
How to obtain[]
Poisonous Pastries 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.
How to unlock the crafting recipe[]
The one recipe you'll need to cook/bake all kinds of Pies - including Poisonous Pastries - will be unlocked by cooking or obtaining basic Soup for the first time, which you can cook in a Cooking Station by selecting the Soup recipe and inserting 2x ordinary Water or Molasses as a liquid plus 7 Vegetables ( 4x either Turnips or Crisphead Lettuce plus 3x either Turnips, Crisphead Lettuce, Horned Melons or any kind of Mushrooms). If you use Molasses instead of Water, you can also use 3 Blizzard Chizzard Eggs or 3x Questionable Jerky as ingredients to cook ordinary Soup.
Please note that only the basic Soup will unlock the recipe for Pies. Baking any other types of Soups (like Bog Broth, Egg Drop Soup or Corrupted Soup for example) will currently not unlock any cooking recipes.
The Cooking Station features only 5 recipes that will enable you to cook tens of 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 Poisonous Pastries, 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 Pie recipe, different kinds of Pies can be produced.
To cook 2 Poisonous Pastries at a time in a Cooking Station, you'll need to select the recipe for all types of Pies and insert:
- 2x Wheat grown on tilled soil near Water from Wheat Seeds (found when harvesting Tallgrass and/or Savannah Tallgrass)
- 1x Chizzard Egg obtained from tamed common green Chizzards or Night Chizzards Pets (to be tamed in Jungles and/or on Shores) or alternatively 1x Blizzard Chizzard Egg obtained from tamed Blizzard Chizzard Pets(to be tamed in any snowy biome like Mountains, Taigas, Tundras or frozen Oceans)
- 1x ordinary Water, which does not require any Power Cells to forage. Using any other kind of Liquids will result in different Pies
- 3x Desert Succulents that can be found in Canyons and Dunes, or grown from seeds
No other combinations of ingredients, especially no other types of liquids can be used to cook Poisonous Pastries. If other liquids or other ingredients are used, different types of Pies will turn out (see below).
How to use[]
When consuming a Poisonous Pastry, your player character take poison damage for 15 seconds, similarly to a Poison Bomb.
You can consume Poisonous Pastries 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 Poisonous Pastry of a whole stack will automatically be consumed. If you eat more Poisonous Pastries (by right-clicking or dragging & dropping again) shortly after an already consumed one, the debuff will merely be prolonged to 15 seconds anew, it will not cause you to take more damage per second.
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 Poisonous Pastries as their favorite Food will not provide you with their best harvest if you feed them any other types of Pie, like a Melon Pie made with Horned Melons just for example. According to the same principle, Pets that love Corrupted Pies made with Corrupted Water (for example) will not provide you with their best harvest if you feed them Poisonous Pastries.
Like nearly all Foodstuff, Poisonous Pastries 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.
