Rich Bear Pie

The strongest push you can give a harvesting tea, paid for with an even shorter window. Bake it only when several carcasses lie a few steps apart.

Overview

In-game description
A bear meat pie enriched with cream. Provides a boost to hunger, health and hydration. Greatly increases effect of harvesting teas but reduces their duration.

Squeezing one heap of carcasses dry is what it is for. The plain bear pie already makes harvesting teas stronger and shorter. The cream version, by its own text, greatly increases the effect and still cuts the duration, so you trade time for more meat, fat and hide per swing.

That trade only pays when nothing slows you down between bodies. Say a jungle fight ends with a tiger and a panther lying a few steps apart, and your duo is already skinning a boar that wandered into the mess. Three carcasses, no walking: that is the moment.

  1. Make sure every animal is dead and no roamer is close. Skinning under fire burns the buff for nothing.
  2. Knife out, eat the pie, then drink the tea, a basic harvesting tea or better.
  3. Work body after body without opening your inventory.

With a pure harvesting tea the gain is the biggest and the window the shortest. Put cream in the tea as well and almost no time is left, so next to this pie an uncreamed tea is the safer pick. And for a single deer, do not bake it at all: that cream does more in the fridge, waiting for a creamy tea.
