Stats and Effect Analysis
Refilling your Breath is less useful than it sounds. Diving gear gives you many minutes of air, and you can catch air bubbles almost everywhere underwater.
It’s the strongest version of the dish, but it needs far more ingredients than the base Grilled Clams. Save it for moments when you need a lot of Stamina from one meal, and cook the base version for everyday use.
It needs Cooking Oil, which is hard to stock up on. Vendors only sell it in small amounts and you can’t grow it in your garden, so plan what you spend it on.
Hearty Grilled Clams came with update 2.04 as part of the Charting the Unknown DLC. You can’t get it without owning the DLC.
