Quests? Hunger? Suggestions?

[InvaderDoom]

So everyone is saying that doing quests help to lower hunger. Salt also lowers hunger, but I've hit a snag.

First problem is finding a Salt node, it's either claimed and walled so that's pretty much out to help lower hunger

And

Second problem is that I can't complete my quest to find this...well...tree, because it's stuck in a village compound that is claimed and brick walled. So that's out.

So I guess my question is, do I honestly have to just sit and wait for my hunger to go down? I mean I know I'm only at the 200% stage, but in order to gain STR I need to eat, but eating raises hunger, then I have to wait for days, mine a bit more, then eat a bit more? I mean it seems I'm missing something, since it appears that by that standard, it's going to take me the better part of 6 months to get a halfway decent character and that's only one stat! I'm working on my quality of the food, survival and exploration, but it's still leaving me constantly raising my hunger. I must be missing something, any suggestions? I'd appreciate it.

Use magic to discard that quest and getting a new one (;

About food, let it get to 300%, prepare the best tableware set you can and eat at the table.

I wasn't aware you could do that? Is there a skill required?

Hopefully it doesn't take too long to get my hunger all the way back down :/

It gets easier over time. Better quality gear, higher survival = better food. Craft stuff to set your table with. Always use the feast option from the table.

If you really want FEP fast go for cooking skill or visit trading posts.

Mixing different FEP causes the FEP bar to level up faster. The amount required to level up is based on your highest attribute. For maximum efficiency raise your lower stats first.

Try to stay away from berries and foragables, always check how much a hunger vs FEP your food has.

The hunger bar drains faster the higher it is(the lower the percentage). Sometimes it's better to stay at a consistent 200% than wait for 300%.

Yeah that's pretty much the plan

But what is this magic that's to be spoken of? So I can use XP to get a new quest to do? Since it's impossible to complete mine

Well, you should have the "Hearth Magic" skill to build dream catchers and thus a claim. I'm not sure what requirements there are beyond that. The 'spell' is "Commune with Nature."

Thanks MagicMan! I'll give that a try! I got like 12,000 experience saved up

Update: Using the "Commune with Nature" magic, it gives me the message "Please Complete your current search first"

Well I can't complete it, because the quest giver is claimed. Is there no fix for this? If not, can we escalate this issue to be solved? I just want to complete my quests

You will fail your quests in few days if you dont do them so dont woryr.

Well here's hoping it fails, I've had this quest to Visit Thietrall(or whatever it's name is) since I've started essentially, hasn't failed yet.
