  • Used to determine if a food item is poisoned
  • Also used in the Plant system where players use the Taste Identification skill and a Planter's Spade to attempt to determine the Ideal values for Heat, Water, and Soil
  • Whenever players passively regenerate extra points of Hits, Stam, or Mana due to Food Satisfaction from eating food, they have a (50% * (Taste ID skill / 100)) chance to increase the amount regenerated by 100%
  • Player-applied poison (from spells or weapons) to a creature will have its damage increased by (100% * (Taste Id Skill / 100)) patch Feb 14,2020
  • Player-applied poison (from spells or weapons) to a creature will reduce that creature's Poison Resistance value to (50% * (Taste Id Skill / 100)) of normal (i.e. a Taste ID skill of 100 reduces a 50% Poison Resistance to 25% Poison Resistance)
  • Will reduce the chance that a player's Poison spell is resisted by (50% * (Taste Id Skill / 100)) of normal (can stack with Poisoning skill effect)


Herbal Poultices

  • When players use the Taste ID skill and target the ground, they will attempt to scrounge for herbs and apply an Herbal Poultice to themselves and any friendly (blue or green) targets within 8 tiles
  • For the player who applied the poultice, they have a (50% * (Taste ID skill / 100)) chance to ignore any damage from a Poison, Bleed, or Disease tick for the next 20 minutes
  • For all other players affected, they have a (25% * (creator's Taste ID Skill / 100)) chance to ignore any damage from a Poison, Bleed, or Disease tick for the next 20 minutes
  • If a player already has a more powerful Herbal Poultice effect in place, it will not be overridden by a nearby player using the ability
  • Using Taste ID on the ground to create an Herbal Poultice has a 10 second cooldown, but has 10x normal skill gain chance
