Please claim the Cured Swordfish and immediately Keep it if it turns out to be the Tart 3.

If you can tell us that you've received it but don't claim it quickly, we can assume it's something else and discuss our next move from there.

Will do. I'll also go back and try to confirm again which ones we have for sure, in case I get another one that would work well.

Remaining options (updated)

Sandora Crabmeat: Salty 2, Sweet 2, Savory 2, Filling 1, Filling 4, Filling 5 - not the best option right now, but not quite the worst either
Cured Swordfish: Tart 3, Salty 1, Salty 2, Salty 5, Sweet 3 - solid first try choice, and the only chance we have of claiming Tart 3 (50%)
Lapahn Gravy: <<Tart 1 (very unlikely)>>, Salty 1, Sweet 1, Savory 2, Savory 5, Filling 1 - dangerous choice, but decent first try given our options
Grape Root: <<Tart 1>>, Salty 1, Sweet 1, Filling 4, Filling 5 - another strong choice, especially on the first try
Skypeia Pumpkins: <Tart 4>, Sweet 4, Savory 2, Savory 5, Filling 4 -Doesn't mesh with our current Salt/Tart thing and is best avoided

Yes.

Keep in mind that even though we don't currently have it. We know what Filling 3 has.

Ideally, the swordfish should be Tart 3 so we can mix it with Tart 2 and Salt 4.
If it's not, it may be better to collect Filling 3 and tell us of the result of the Swordfish so we can narrow down the option for the last dish.

The one exception to what Pagaya said might be if the Swordfish is Salt 1, in which case it's probably better to keep it and have Garp just go for the Spinach so you don't lose ASPs. But we can figure that out if it comes up.

Okay, the Swordfish was Salt 5. I couldn't math that out in a way that made any kind of sense to keep it, so I ditched it and went for the Spinach, Filling 3. Giving us:

So we've definitely got two perfect 25 dishes. What's more, they can't have any more than 2 perfect 5 values either, just like us.

How does the math work if we mix up Salt 4 and 5 and Tart 2?

9x2=18 - 4 = 14 value dish?

Nope, the over is subtracted first, so putting Salt 4 and Salt 5 together would be 5 - (9-5) =1, then times Tart 2 or whatever.

- Cocoa Weed Peebles: Can become Salt 2, 3. Also Tart 1
Can become Sweet 1 or Filling 1

- Grape Root: Can become Salt 1 or Tart 1
Can also become Filling 4 or 5

- Lapahn Gravy: Can become Tart 1 or Salt 1.
Can become Sweet 1, Filling 1 or Savory 5

- Skypiea Pumpkin: Can become Tart 4.
Can become Savory 2, 5 Sweet 4, Filling 4

-Sandora Crabmeat: Can become Salt 2
Also, Filling 1, 4 and 5

Cocoa Weed Peebles:
Salt 2 = 11 value dish
Salt 3 = 12 value dish
Tart 1 = 12 value dish

Grape Root/Lapahn Gravy
Salt 1 = 10
Tart 1 = 12

Skypiea Pumpkin:
Tart 4= 23

Sandora Crabmeat:
Salt 2 = 11 value dish


Someone double check this please.

So, our best option is to ask Garp to check the Pumpkin, and if it isn't Tart 4, we pick up the Swordfish.

We may have been going about this wrong. What if we go back and grab that Salt 5, then double up the Tarts? We'd have:

Tart 2&5 x Salt 4 = 12
Salt 5 x Savory 1&4 = 25
Sweet 5 x Filling 2&3 = 25

For a total of 62 points, which is about as good as we can get. The only thing better would be the Tart 4, which may or may not still be there.

Good point. So then, we want to have Garp try the Skypeia Pumpkin to see if it's Tart 4, and if not, we switch back to the Salt 5?

That sounds good. I'm not getting a good feeling about the end results of this challenge given what our availability times have wrought, but might as well try the best that we can.
