Title: Manos Clothes - Cooking and Alchemy TIME REDUCTION

Family Name: BlackPray

Region (NA/EU): EU

Suggestion/Comments:

Take away 2 seconds of time reduction from Manos Alchemist's Clothes and put them on Manos Cook's Clothes
(it wasnt my intention to suggest any nerf to alchemy, i do alchemy too, i wrote it like that since to me it didnt felt like the whole -4sec was even necessary since the introduction of lightstone combo to get -2sec)

give at least 2 seconds of time reduction to Manos Cook's Clothes

4 seconds of time reduction on Manos Alchemist's Clothes makes totaly useless the lightstone alchemy combo, it does not even need it

0 seconds of time reduction on Manos Cook's Clothes makes it hellish to reach 1 sec of coocking time

getting to 1 sec of coocking time with Manos Cook's Clothes needs:

- the lightstone combo for -2 sec  (... a bit expensive but at least you just need to put togeher the silver and you can buy it... got this already)

- an Alchemy Stone of Life with at least 2 seconds of time reduction (... how the hell is everyone supposed to get this?? the alchemy stone market is utterly dead and polishing one is hell)

- and the costant use of Verdure Draught for -1sec (doable... sad but doable, IF there were all other pieces to get to 1 sec, BUT with only a -1.4sec Alchemy Stone ... nope)

- ( i consider Seafood Cron Meal & Canape Clothes as default, used them since ever with Silver Embroided Clothes )

if im wrong and there is something else that im missing and that can be used to fill that -1sec that i'm missing since i cant get a -2 sec Alchemy Stone pls let me know

So you want cooking buffed and alchemy nerfed? Cooking is already one of the best life skills while alchemy the majority of the recipes are unprofitable even at 1800 mastery. Pretty much every good profit alchemy recipe is bottle necked either by traces or a different un-gatherable resource. Every gatherable Alchemy recipe makes a fraction of the profit of Cooking recipes.
Alchemy certainly doesn't deserve that nerf while cooking doesn't need that buff. 

Alchemy has the time reduction, but Cooking Mastery gives you the x10 batches, so you will always cook faster than alchemy for the same size of batch.

Alchemy doesn't need to be nerfed further, it's already the worse set-up.

i do alchemy too, didnt want to suggest any nerf to it XD
since often i even forget to use the lightstone combo and yet the time is still reduced to the max 

my brain dindt register at all the possibility of removing 2 sec from the Manos clothes to be a nerf XD

yea, thinking about it, one can save on the Pavilla clothes

yep lets not talk about the alchemy

its not that coocking dose need this buff,

but its not that different times make a difference on the final product,

its only a matter of wasted time, even if mainly afk, one stil has to check for when igredients or the cooking tool end.

and the difference between 1 sec and 2 sec is massive, a whopping 100% more, and worst for every more second

instead to need 10 hours it becomes 20 hours or 30 hours or worst, its a lot

and the Silver Embroided Clothes have both -4sec

the manos Clothes both have mastery but only Cooking doesnt have time reduction
