Characteristics
Overview
A delightful fish pie enriched with cream. Provides a boost to hunger, health and hydration. Increases base comfort level for a long time.
Of all the rich pies, this is the one where cream changes the most. The plain fish pie raises your base comfort level for a short time, and that runs out quickly. The rich one, by its own text, keeps it up for a long time. Same pie, same boost to hunger, health and hydration, but now the comfort lasts long enough to plan around.
Comfort is what lets your health creep back by itself, the thing a fire or a chair gives you at home. So the rich version is for the hours you spend nowhere near either. Think of a long sulfur run across the map with a pickaxe. You trade shots with someone on the road, win, and keep walking, and your health climbs on the way to the next node instead of sitting at half.
Tip
Eat it as you walk out of the compound, not after the first fight. A long timer started late is partly wasted.
At home it adds little: a comfort workbench upgrade already gives full comfort around the bench. Fish is cheap, so cream is the only real cost, and here it buys a much longer effect. That makes it one of the few rich pies worth baking for an ordinary trip. It comes off the Cooking Workbench like the rest.
