Hunters Pie

The Hunters Pie is an edible item acquired through its crafting, added with the March 6, 2025 patch. They are a Cooking Workbench-dependent item made from a recipe requiring 3 Eggs, 3 Wheat, 2 Cooked Deer Meat, 2 Potatoes, and 2 Mushrooms.

Pie item types have three primary purposes and/or functions. Every kind of pie can be eaten by default, though it has to be placed in the hotbar, equipped as you would a weapon, and then consumed by clicking the Left Mouse Button. Doing so will result in gaining some health, hydration, and calories, as listed below. Alternatively, they function as practical weapons, able to be thrown through equipping, and instead, clicking the Right Mouse Button to hurl at a player or NPC. Pies may be picked back up after the fact and reused in this manner until they glitch out or are picked up by someone else.

Finally, all pies give a status buff, depending on the pie type.

In the case of the Hunters Pie, players are given a 75% Clotting bonus, which reduces the duration of bleeding damage effects by 75% for 15 minutes.

When consumed, the Hunters Pie will restore 80 calories and 15 hydration and heal the player by two health instantly. When thrown at a naked player, a successful body shot will inflict 10 damage, while a lucky headshot will deal a whopping 15 damage.
