wait
then what has been healing my crew during my 2 hour long dark sea expedition?
before selecting any professions, my crew members usually began dying after like 20 minutes
after selecting the professions (navigator, chef and ship builder, all only first tier) I went 2 hours without any of crew dying, while I’m certain that lightning struck my boat at least like 10 times.
the only profession that says it has something to do with the crew is the chef, which is supposed to cook meals for you and the crew.
When my crew took damage, after like 10 seconds they played an eating animation and regained like 25% of their max health. It makes sense that this is one of the chef’s abilities, since I’ve never seen it without having a chef deckhand.
also it could just be that that was always a thing, or maybe the wiki is just inaccurate (the wiki had a potion effect listed for like a month that was called something like shark lure which was supposed to make sharks spawn around you more often)
I know chef is written to be cooking both for you and your crew, but in fact all interaction with the crew is that they catch fish for chef to cook. Cooked meals are only yours
