Pumpkin Bread

Pumpkin Bread is a consumable food item described as a soft, moist bread with a distinct pumpkin flavor. It functions as a straightforward restorative food in the game and is primarily used to refill a character's hunger and, to a smaller extent, thirst meters. Pumpkin Bread is obtained by salvaging a Pumpkin at a Repair and Salvage Station.

Pumpkin Bread restores different amounts of hunger and thirst depending on the player's Cooking skill. The amount restored scales with Cooking skill bands as follows:

• Cooking Skill 0–4: restores 37 hunger and 5 thirst.
• Cooking Skill 5–9: restores 48 hunger and 6 thirst.
• Cooking Skill 10–14: restores 54 hunger and 7 thirst.
• Cooking Skill 15–19: restores 60 hunger and 8 thirst.
• Cooking Skill 20: restores 65 hunger and 8 thirst.

Practical notes and interactions:

• Use Pumpkin Bread whenever you need a reliable, mid-tier hunger refill. At higher Cooking skill levels it becomes a notably more efficient hunger source.
• The item provides a small thirst benefit in addition to hunger restoration; this can help reduce the need for dedicated drink items when supplies are limited.
• Pumpkin Bread must be obtained through salvaging Pumpkins at Repair and Salvage Stations; it is not listed as a harvested or crafted recipe in the available sources.
• Because its primary effect is direct hunger restoration, Pumpkin Bread is best used during exploration or between encounters when you need to top up hunger without using rare ingredients reserved for higher-value dishes.
