Buffs & Consumables

What your food actually does beyond healing — and how the buff bar tracks it.

Food Does More Than Heal

Most food just restores HP — but a handful of Cooking's more advanced dishes grant a temporary buff on top of the heal, boosting something specific for a limited time after you eat them.

What Each Buff Does

MealHealBuffDuration

Fish Pie15 HP+3 effective Fishing levels10 minutes
Admiral's Pie25 HP+5 effective Fishing levels15 minutes

Eating a new buff meal of the same type refreshes the timer rather than stacking — you can't hold two stews' worth of speed bonus at once.

Tracking Active Buffs

The buff bar showing an active timed buff icon above the sidebar

Active buffs sit just above your sidebar, each counting down to when it wears off.

Any buff currently active shows up as an icon just above your sidebar, along with a countdown to when it expires. Once it runs out, the icon disappears and the effect ends — no need to track it manually.

💡

Tip: Curry's Smithing speed buff and the various Fishing buffs are worth timing deliberately — eat one right before you sit down for a long gathering or crafting session rather than mid-session, so you get the full duration out of it.

No Potions — Yet

Everworld doesn't currently have a separate potion or scroll system — buffs only come from these specific cooked meals. If that changes in a future update, this article will be the first to know.
