Water Quality

[Xhodan]

Does the quality of water effect the rate in which you regain stamina, also does it decrease the energy consumed when it's higher quality?

Energy used is the same no matter the quality. Stamina restored is based on the quality. Q40 water restores 2x the amount q10 does. Spring water has 2x the effective quality of normal water. (q20 spring water is same as q40 normal water.)

When I tested this I came to the opposite conclusion: higher quality water drains energy slower, but the stamina per unit of water was identical. Was this changed?

Edit:

Drinking Quality

Quality 10 water recovers 10% stamina and drains 20% energy per 0.5L sip. Higher quality water will decrease the energy drain but stamina recovery remains the same at all qualities. This makes high quality water useful for performing stamina draining tasks without having to eat as much to recover, thus preserving your hunger bonus. Though energy is always shown as a whole number, it is not simply rounded up or down. For example, Q11 water will alternate between draining 20% and 19% energy at regular intervals. Other drinkable liquids such as milk seem to follow the same rules and formula, making them decent substitutes for water if you have a surplus since it is much easier to increase their quality (this requires further testing).

I've been playing this so long, I forget all the changes sometimes. What I get for not double checking first.
