Psychite tea
A fragrant tea infused with leaves of the psychoid plant. Drinking it induces a subtle psychite euphoria. This tea is easy to produce at cooking facilities, but can produce psychite addiction if consumed too often.
Many tribes use psychoid tea, both as a daily energizer and as part of social and religious rituals.

Psychite tea is a relatively "safe" social drug, that provides a +12 mood buff as well as slightly reducing pain (10% reduction) and the rate pawns get tired (20% reduction), and raises Recreation by 40. It is relatively very easy to research compared to other drugs, especially for Tribal colonies (who suffer a penalty for "advanced" techs like Drug Production, which this does not require).

Acquisition
Psychite tea can be cooked at a Campfire, Fueled stove, or Electric stove once the Psychoid brewing research project has been completed. Each dose requires 4 Psychoid leaves, 400 ticks (6.67 secs) of work, and a Cooking skill of 2. Its cooking speed is dependent on the Cooking skill.
It can also be purchased from Tribal traders, especially Shaman Merchants who commonly stock it, as well as Tribal faction bases. Tribal visitors and raiders will also occasionally carry them.
Analysis
Psychite tea is much less addictive than flake or yayo. A colonist can drink it every 2 days without becoming addicted. If drunk more often, and the tolerance reaches 10% or more, then drinking psychite tea only has a 2% chance to create addiction - the same as smokeleaf - without smokeleaf's penalties to movement and consciousness. The tea is even better than ambrosia, especially in the mid-game, with the downside of only being able to give the mood buff every 2 days and a cost of research and time cooking and planting psychoid.
It is less cost-efficient than the other psychoid drugs, flake and yayo, as it is worth the least and takes the longest to make. However, its beneficial properties, lack of risk for limited use, simpler research requirement and much simpler production requirements (i.e. a campfire is adequate, any stove is faster) makes it a good option in the early game, and still useful to end game. This is an especially good option for tribal colonies, who start the game with psychoid brewing already researched.
Withdrawal Symptoms
Like Yayo and Flake, Psychite tea can cause psychite addiction. Withdrawal lasts for 30 days and causes the following symptoms:
- Mood -35
- Consciousness: -20%
- Moving: -20%
- Manipulation -20%
- Rest Fall Rate +30%
- Hard drug binges (mtb of 40 days)
- Psychotic wandering (mtb of 10 days)
Version history
- This drug was introduced in B18.
- In Beta 19, it was renamed from Psychoid pekoe, and it was no longer made at a crafting spot.
- In Beta 19/1.0 - tolerance gain 0.02 -> 0.03, market value 14 -> 10, restFallFactor 0.9 -> 0.8
