[QUOTE="Drawmack, post: 1068571, member: 4981"] Right and what you're describing is an average ordinary meal. Now if I were to take that same piece of meat and make a wonderful stogenauf out of it, wouldn't that be a better meal maybe even masterwork? You haven't worked in a lot of restaurants have you? I didn't take them a week to put it on your table from the moment you ordered it but how long did it take to prepare everything so the chef could have it on your table in 10 mintues. In a kitchen over 90% of the work is done before the meal is ordered. [qoute]And if a meal has a preparation DC of 20, how would that be different from a MW meal? What would a MW meal look like versus just a regular meal with a really high DC?[/quote] The difference between masterwork and regular is in the usage of the raw materials. So let's say that we both make stew, but I make a masterwork stew and you make a regular stew. We will start with the same ingredients but I will spend more time and care on my stew. In the end we will both have stew but I will have a stew that is heartier, more robust, better tasting and just an all around better stew. That is what makes something masterwork. A dear must be bled for 1 week before it can be butchered unless you're making blood stew. Then it must be butchered taking another coupld of days. After this the meat can be cooked and served. My rangers to run around hunting anything larger then rabits because I know what it entails to butcher meat. You're not killing a dear and eating it for dinner. nope, though he may have ranks in profession(Restauranteer) but that won't help him actually prepare the food. I would rather it be a profession but this is the rules forum so what I would rather does not matter. The craft makes more sense. I'm not disagreeing in general, I'm disagreeing in specific.
