Classes are meaningless. No point in giving one an advantage by now.

There's a lot of things "nobody says" but we still take for granted.
Why should this be any different?

But the system implies its intention is for us to be constantly regenning during "battle".
It's not so much a balance between "battle" and "peace" items, but it's moreso the fact that a single stat is counter-acting itself.

Let me explain again:
1. Regen is supposed to speed up my healing, with some food sacrifice
2. In reality, regen's main effect is sacrificing my food, while giving me some healing. (Edit: This is where I should make it clear that the "regeneration" stat on 2 Rings of War kills my food too quickly even if i'm NOT battling.)
3. Regen becomes useless QUICKLY during a battle after my food meter is drained.

Conclusion: The system used to work better before. Change it back.

This would make sense if my food was being drained only because of battle. However, it's also being drained quickly when I'm NOT battling, and I'm simply casually walking around. It's slower, but it's still fast enough that I usually find myself at 0 because it's pointless to keep eating.

This is a terrible idea. I can tell you why, but I'll only be repeating myself.

So you want them to basically bile the whole server cept in battle where the food consumption would speed up again?

This reminds me of Final Fantasy and Dark Cloud.

You see in any Final Fantasy game you didn't need to drink water or fix tools but when you play dark cloud you find that you need to keep yourself hydrated and your weapons repaired. Granted at first I didn't like this but got so used to doing it that it became second nature to me while playing it.

This isn't much difference...your wanting to take the Dark Cloud aspect and try to turn it into the Final Fantasy aspect.

No, they want to take the Dark Cloud aspect of fixing weapons and turn it into a Dark Cloud 2 aspect. See what I did there? Weapon management in Dark Cloud was broken, they fixed it in Dark Cloud 2. That's what needs to be done here... no one is trying to eliminate it.

This guy is right. So fix it. Do something to make this easier.

The food system is not broken so it can't be fixed, it can be changed to suit the server better but it's not broken because it was changed like this for a reason.

But I do agree it needs to be changed to like it was before when it didn't go down as much as it does now.
