Details

I transformed 16 single "spreading apple jam" to "bread with apple jam" and got ~7.5 progression points.
Transforming a stack of 16 at once gave less then 0.5 points.

7.5/0.5 = 15 ~ 16 (I can't count fractions of PP exactly).

Looks like a stack gives the same experience like a single item.

(I have cooking level 33.)

This task depends upon

I believe crafting stacks of items has always been this way, I've seen it with melting ingot/stocks several versions ago.

For 0.5 this was changed in concert with allowing more bulk work to be done with stacked items.
While the transform time was extended by some factor on the stack count, the Exp awarded was also multiplied by the stack count.

That said...Minks you're over the top of the range in skill level to get practice in Cooking for this task, so I expect all you got was the base experience.

Testers please confirm and advise...thanks.

Assigning to test team to check

Made two simple tests with a char with cooking level 4:

  • sliced a stack of ten apples until I coudn't slice anymore and got a bit more then 2 PP.
  • sliced ten apples until I coudn't slice anymore and got ~23 PP, ten times more then with the first test.

Minks is probably right!
