Well for starters Both Shallops Tropical and Seafood Stew last 3 hours and are both unstackable... not that this matters because it lasts 3 damn hours.

Seafood stew caps at 120 Defence while Shallops Tropicale caps at 100 defence,
Seafood Stew 20 Extra Defence

Seafood Stew Also has 5 VIT whereas Shallops Topicale only has 4 VIT
Seafood Stew Extra +1 VIT

The only advantage of Shalops Tropical is the mere 20 Mp advantage. No offence, but if you prefer 20mp to an extra 1 VIT and 20 defence, Your thinking along the wrong lines as a tank, This food is more beneficial than Shallops Tropical in my personal Opinion. Others may have things to say about 20mp on a paladin used for that extra cure or that little boost of hate, i just think that little cure extra is to little and that extra boost of hate doesnt measure to an extra 20 Def and extra VIT stat

This food is also used to break level 90 cooking cap.

By the way this is based on the premise that the players Defence IS 480+ if your defence is around 400 By all means go with shallops Tropicale becase the cap to 120 defence will be useless to a person who has 400 defence and uses this food as they will get a 100 defence boost anyway.

costs 6k on Quet. I use it on my ninja (yes, i know i'm weird but I like to, you know, BE A FREAKIN TANK) I go from 328 def (w/defender and protect III) to 407 Def. I suck at math so someone else can try figuring out the percentage on that one eh?

How much does this go for? im on Fairy server and would like to know for my PLD.

Is that DEF + 25 % or just 25 Def?

Just curious if the defense stat on these is 25 or 25 percent, Thanks.

This is what needs to be made for your lvl 88 cap
