Caffeine

Main / Skills / Cooking / Beverages / Caffeine

Description

Caffeinated beverages such as tea and coffee cause the player to use sleep bonus at an accelerated rate providing a means of faster skill gain than using sleep bonus alone. Sleep bonus can be used 1 to 2 times the normal rate depending on caffeine effect level.

Notes

• While caffeine is active, sleep bonus is used at an accelerated rate in return for increased skill gain; however, doing so produces the restlessness de-buff.
• Caffeine causes alcohol intoxication to decay faster, causing faster sobering up.
• Drinking a caffeinated beverage within 10 minutes of logging in yields ten free minutes of sleep bonus.
• The maximum caffeine effect is 100 which yields a 2x sleep bonus use rate.
• Caffeinated beverages can be consumed with a full thirst bar.

Restlessness

Restlessness is a negative spell effect generated by using Sleep Bonus, while the Caffeine buff is active, until the point where Caffeine will no longer give you its benefits (5 hours). The restlessness spell effect will decay, when the player is logged out, at a 1:24 ratio, it takes 24 hours of offline time to reduce the de-buff by 1 hour.
