Grim Galette - Never Used. How does it work in combat?

[Mencken]

Swaps health and sanity.   How long does it last and what actually happens if you're using it while fighting a boss?    Does your sanity go down when you get hit?

 

 

[Misuto]

Nothing fancy like that. It does what it says on the tin "swaps your sanity and health."

 

I.E You have 30 hp and 120 sanity, you eat the galette and you'll now have 125 hp and 31 sanity (as the recipe gives 1 hp and 5 sanity which get swapped).

Try eating it with 0 sanity see what happens.

You will be at 1hp that is if Grim Gallete is fresh.

Seems like a somewhat niche food since most bosses drain sanity pretty strong unless your wearing a Bee queen helmet or you have a cactus/jerky/taffy stack ? Never really understand its use . Who actually uses this on the regular ?

pretty useful for Wormwood to switch sanity for health and Wortox to switch health for sanity, as they both have trouble refilling one meter and ease refilling the other

I use it quite a bit as Warly to swap my high health with my low sanity since so many foods have +20, +30 and even +40 health that I only eat for hunger.

wormwood can create chest of living wood very quick by planting pinecones after gallete

this is pretty much the use case, if you're against a non-400/min boss and primarily tanking, you can pull an almost full heal out of the food

or transform +33-50 sanity foods into hp foods vs a -400/min boss, need to be pretty inventive to make use out of it like that but ye

If you fight bosses where you’re gaining sanity/enlightenment, grim is a good deal.

In fact, if the final boss of the RoT arc plays around increasing your enlightenment, Grim Gallete might be the move.

So you could tank Bee Queen with it?

Maybe if you've got about a billion galettes and about a billion sanity foods, but it'd be so much easier and more effective to just heal with healing foods.

I know I'm late to this but if the lunar bionmes ever gets expanded upon I can see grim galette becoming a wonder food.
