Default Improve Sugar Rush

Well, either a Red Bean Cake, a Crème Brûlée or a Mandragor Root Cake gives you a sugar rush (for 5 min you move 25% faster in-town).

But usually you only stay in-town like 1min average...
That makes it useless...

So my sugestion is:
instead of giving 5 min, give
'the next 5 times you're in-town or change district you move 25% faster for 1 minute'

What do you think?

Nerf it entirely. 25% boost is absurd, and 5 min duration insane.

Make it something like 10% for 5 seconds. Cakes are simply overpowered. Not to mention spikes you can do, if you get 20 players together.


OT: They are somewhat novelty items, intended to be a feature, not the norm. 5 min is somewhat bogus anyway, make them single use, but unlimited duration. Or at least give the ability to obtain more of them for the same price, stacks of 5 or so.

In my opinion, it doesn't really need to be changed. I believe it was mainly put in as a boost for carnival games and the like. The main purpose I've seen thus far was to provide a slight advantage in whack a wurm. Since those games took a few minutes, the one minute interval each time you enter town would kinda change the intended effect. That being said, I hope there are different games that can use this in the future...otherwise, they are mostly storage hogs.

It's sometimes called a "joke", often referred to as "sarcasm" by the general populous. Should have been obvious, given the fact that you can't get twenty people in a party to organize a spike...

The Sugar Rush is a novelty thing, and therefore, in my own opinion, doesn't need touched unless it somehow becomes a problem in a future mini-game or something.
