|---|---|
| |
| Activity | Cooking raw fish and chicken into food |
| Tool required | Roast pit |
| XP per action | 131 per batch |
| Max level | 30 |
| Counts to Total Level | Yes |
Cooking turns raw ingredients into food at roast pits. It pairs naturally with Fishing and gives strong XP per action, making it one of the faster skills to level.
Training
Cook at a roast pit (about 10 seconds per batch). Roast pits are found at The Pond and in Whisperwood.
| Ingredient | Fuel | Makes | Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fish + Wood | Wood (1 per cook) | Cooked Fish Meat | Traveling Merchant gold ingredient (30 per gold exchange) |
| Raw Chicken + Wood | Wood (1 per cook) | Cooked Chicken | Tames Wild Wolves into a Wolf Mount |
Each batch gives 131 Cooking XP.
EXP rates
Default Cooking: 131 XP per batch (1 batch every 10 seconds)
| Time period | EXP gained |
|---|---|
| Per minute | 131 × 6 = 786 XP |
| Per hour | 786 × 60 = 47,160 XP |
| Per day | 47,160 × 24 = 1,131,840 XP |
Cooking has the highest guaranteed XP per hour of any gathering skill. See EXP Calculator for a full comparison.
Fish to max level
Based on 131 XP per fish cooked and a max level XP requirement of 551,478:
| Starting point | Fish needed | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| From level 1 (0 XP) | 4,209 fish | Full grind from scratch to max level. |
| Per hour at max efficiency | 360 fish | 1 fish every 10 seconds, sustained. |
| Hours to max from scratch | ~11.7 hours | Continuous cooking at roast pit with no breaks. |
Why cook
- Cooked Fish Meat is one of the five materials required by the Traveling Merchant for Gold (30 per exchange).
- Cooked Chicken tames Wild Wolves into a Wolf Mount — the only mount obtained through feeding rather than combat or fishing.
- Cook next to Fishing at The Pond to train both skills simultaneously.
- Cooking gives 47,160 XP per hour — the highest of any gathering skill and one of the best ways to raise Total Level quickly.
- Both recipes require Wood as fuel — stock up before long cooking sessions.
Tips
- Gather Wood from the Wilderness before heading to the roast pits — both fish and chicken recipes consume 1 Wood per cook.
- The roast pit at The Pond is the most efficient location since you can fish and cook in the same spot without travelling.
- Cooked Fish Meat is also needed for the Traveling Merchant bundle — cooking sessions double as merchant prep.
