Tips

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.
  • Because of how easy it is to get early game if one has the drams, it is very easy to learn recipes to tinker items that they will mostly often be using, such as the high explosive grenade mk I or salve injector recipes. For further applications, see Psychometry.

Speculation

Caution: This article or section contains unverified speculation and should not be considered canonical.
  • One might conjecture that bananas gain their somewhat mystical cooking properties from the "Spindle glitter" that seemingly has fallen on them. Both bananas and sun-dried bananas are described as being covered in such.
  • sun-dried bananas granting Psychometry is possibly a reference to how, in India, bananas were once called the "Fruit of the Wise Men", and according to Indian legend, great thinkers would meditate in the shade of banana trees and would eat their fruit.
