Unlike most other MMORPGs, there are no potions in Tower of Fantasy. If you want to heal up or buff yourself, you’ll need to instead rely on food. However, the cooking mechanics in Tower of Fantasy are surprisingly complex and require some playing around to master. To help figure it out, we’ve put together this guide on what the best food recipes are to use in Tower of Fantasy.
Note: We’ll have a Tower of Fantasy guides and features hub coming soon, so stay tuned.
How to eat food
There are two ways to eat food. The easiest is to press the ‘Use Supply’ keybind, which is F2 by default. Using this to eat food that restores health triggers a 45-second cooldown during which you cannot heal using food again. You can change what food is eaten when Use Supply is triggered by clicking the up arrow to the right of your health bar.
The alternative option is to go to your backpack, select ‘Cooking’ on the right side of your backpack, and then click what food you want to eat. This is useful for stacking multiple buffs just before entering a difficult encounter. Any food recipe that only provides buffs or satiety but does not heal will not trigger the aforementioned 45-second cooldown.
Best food recipes for healing in Tower of Fantasy
In an ideal world, you’d be able to rely on your healers or be a healer yourself, but that isn’t always possible. There will be times when your team’s healer can’t keep you up or you’ll be completing solo content as a DPS or tank player. In these instances, your only method of healing is to eat up. These are the best food recipes to keep your health high.

Best food recipes for offensive buffs in Tower of Fantasy
They say that the best defense is a good offense, and that rings true for many MMOs. At least in most cases, Tower of Fantasy is no exception to that rule. If you can deal more damage, you can kill a boss faster and therefore take less overall damage throughout the fight. The food recipes listed below are the best options for increasing your DPS.
Purple Yam Pie
x3 Brown Rice, x1 Purple Yam – Gain (+2% + 150) Volt damage for 1200 sec.
Salmon Sashimi

Best food recipes for defensive buffs in Tower of Fantasy
Although better DPS does improve survivability, there are times when that won’t be enough. Some content is so punishing that without an extra layer of defense, you are going to struggle to clear it. This will become especially true once high-level raid content is added in the future. For these occasions, you’ll want to use the following food recipes to buff up your defense.
Braised Meat
x1 Fatty Cut – Gain (+15% + 675) Ice resistance for 1200 sec.
Grilled Steak
x1 Prime Cut – Gain (+15% + 675) Volt resistance for 1200 sec.
