Not sure about the actual question though since I wouldn't do either. In what situations would I want to eat mandrake soup as opposed to cooked mandrake, or vice versa? So if I understand, cooking a mandrake and eating said cooked mandrake has the same effect? You'll wake up at the start of the next day as if you used a tent. What happens when I go to sleep-does time just instantly advance?

They're one of the most rare items in the game, just behind guardian horns and trinkets.

Should I just eat a raw mandrake instead?ĭon't cook it, don't eat it. One green gem equals out to 37.5 pan flute uses. Why cook a mandrake? There are definitely cheaper ways to skip days, and the mandrake can be used to put close mobs to sleep multiple times, and near infinitely after worlds raiding. Not sure I understand what advantageous (or detrimental) effect this has on me or mobs. I personally believe AOE sleep is most effective against multiple mobs because it allows you to pick off one mob at a time and at your leisure.

So I guess I am awake and they are asleep. The wiki says when eaten it puts all nearby Mobs to sleep (until the next cycle of the day from dusk until night, from night until daytime, from daytime until dusk). So I read the wiki and aside from the food benefits of the mandrake, I'm not sure I understand the mechanics or benefits of it putting myself and mobs to sleep.
