Characteristics
Overview
Tasty hunters pie, made with real deer. Provides a boost to hunger, health and hydration. Reduces bleeding for a short time.
Its job is to make bleeding hurt less in a fight you can see coming. Like every pie it tops up hunger, health and hydration, but the line that matters is the last one in the game text: it reduces bleeding for a short time. Bleeding is the slow drain that keeps eating your health after the hit, the one you normally stop with a bandage.
Tip
Eat it right before the fight, not after. The buff is short, and once the shooting stops you are reaching for meds anyway.
Early wipe is where it fits best. Say your group is about to push a small monument with bows and spears, and everyone expects to take arrows. One pie each at the edge of the fence, and every hit bleeds you less, so you finish the fight instead of stopping to patch up.
The meat is deer, says its own description, so a hunting trip with raw deer meat in the bag feeds straight into it at the Cooking Workbench. The rich hunters pie goes a step further: with cream added, its text says it stops bleeding for a short time instead of only reducing it.
