Daddicus.6128 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 The portable composter made while doing the gourmet collection says it is a consumable. Does that mean you have to burn 4 spiritwood planks and one elonian leather for EACH item you salvage? I'm afraid to use it to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haleydawn.3764 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 It’s free to use. It says it salvages crafted food consumables. Not that it itself is consumable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddicus.6128 Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 Actually, it does say it is consumable. It also says that it salvages consumable food. But, the word consumable is right underneath ascended. I'm hoping it's just bad wording. So, you've used it twice or more? If so, you get credit for the answer. Thanks!

Daddicus.6128 Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 You're right. Someone on the wiki told me it was infinite-use, so I tried it, and it isn't consumed. I'm currently working with the others on the wiki to decide whether a note to this effect should be added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, by ANet's definition, everything that can be double-clicked and used is some way is a "consumable". ;) They are not very consistent with the use of the term, though - there are other actual consumables that do not wear this label.

altermaven.7385 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 The wording is poor. Your portable composter will never break and it will consume any and all food you use it on. At first I was worried about that, because of the phrasing, but when I see that it (the composter) didn't disappear I realised it was just an error in the description.

Such items should be called "consumer" instead, but that might confuse some customers. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, maybe even "eater" or "salvager". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
