Simple question really, do you need 100 in cooking/alchemy skills or will you be able to throw 70 points for the best mechanical bonuses while 100 is for naming?
Cooking and alchemy, do you need 100?

I won't speak for cooking because I don't think very highly of the system in its current form.
However, I can speak about Alchemy, and I can tell you that you will need 100 in Alchemy, Potion Making, and Advanced Potion Making.
As a side note the primaries you should also then get are: Botany (under Material Lore), Botany Appliances & Alchemy Contraptions (under Crafting Appliances), Herbalism and Milling (under Extraction). There are a lot of secondaries to get, but that's the basic build for Alchemy.

certain ones don't matter. Certain single ingredientcooks, but some do matter (w/ advanced.) Just depends. Cooking is sadlife atm, but yea if you're gonna cook for serious, as in using more than one ingredient, I would put it at 100 for both. The good thing about advanced is it seems to pop pretty high when it unlocks, like 40/50 so it's not as grindy.
that and about 14 other things :/ Cooking is just trash. Soph was its savior. We need something else. Now that people can make survival food with animats/botany and secondary points, there is really a need for a more advanced cooking method again. Bring back soph, make it affect standing. MAKE ME RICH SV.
