A7 - FOODSTUFFS

Discover the best foodstuffs in Gothic 1 Remake for healing HP and Mana. Learn about preparation, selling values, and efficient consumption to supplement potions and rest.

In Gothic 1 Remake, not all wounds require a healing potion. A good meal and some sleep can often suffice. Various foodstuffs replenish health and/or mana, serving as a supplement to potions and rest. Some heal little but are expensive, while others are cheap and heal moderately. The table below details efficient choices for consumption and items better sold to merchants. HP is the amount healed per item, Mana is regenerated per item, and Sell Value is the coin received from merchants.

Special foodstuffs that permanently boost traits other than HP/Mana are detailed in the "Skills & Statboosters" section and are not considered regular foodstuff.

Compared to sleeping or drinking healing potions, foodstuffs take time to 'use' and are not for combat. Eaten items are quicker to use than beverages due to shorter animations. While many foodstuffs heal well, consuming numerous beverages after a fight can be time-consuming. Eaten foodstuffs generally heal more HP than beverages, which often also provide some Mana.

Price and efficiency vary. Raw Meat, when fried into Fried Meat, is an excellent supplement to healing potions. Fried Meat sells for very little but is abundant. Bread and Cheese heal moderately but sell for decent coin. Fish is nearly worthless raw, but Fish Soup is worth more, though it heals less than Fried Meat. Purchasing expensive, low-yield items like bread and cheese for consumption is generally a waste of coin.

Beverages heal very little HP and Mana and are usually expensive for their effect, making them better suited as merchant fodder.

Preparation: Raw Meat can be fried on any stove that is not in use. Simply use a stove with Raw Meat in your inventory to create Fried Meat. For efficiency, fry 5-10 pieces at a time. Fried Meat became a primary food source, but frying hundreds of raw meat pieces is time-consuming.

Fish Soup can only be made once per day by Edda, located behind Ignaz's house in Khorinis, near the docks.
