Build Strategy

Burn Everything Feast

Chef deals +200% damage from non-elemental sources against burning enemies and starts with +35 Luck. The plan: set enemies on fire (via consumables, items, or the Scared Sausage), then finish them with high-damage weapons. Consumables explode for burning damage when picked up — position pickups in enemy groups.

Elemental Damage modifications are reduced by 75%, so pure elemental builds won't work. Use elemental only to apply burns, then switch to physical damage to cash in.
