Provision
Provisions are a feature in the Reclamation Algorithm game mode of Arknights. It is basically food that can be eaten by Operators, but there's more than just that; Provisions may provide the Operator who ate them with buffs to help them in combat.
Provisions are made in the Logistics Department section of the Headquarters (Fire Within the Sand) or the Cooking Platform (Tales Within the Sand) by combining 1 
Fresh Water along with three main ingredients and up to two additional ingredients as follows:
| Main | Additional |
|---|---|
           |
           |
Additional ingredients are optional but will provide additional effects for the Provision being made.
The result will be unknown until the Provision is actually made, at which the ingredient combination will be saved as a recipe.
A single Operator may only have the buffs from one Provision at a time; eating a new one will cause its buff to override the old one. Provisions can also be converted into Electrolye Isotonics (Fire Within the Sand) or 
Energy Drink (Tales Within the Sand).
In Fire Within the Sand, Tier 3 and 4 Provisions will also restore the stamina of the Operator who ate it.
In Tales Within the Sand:
- Provisions' effects last for a certain amount of days that varies on its tier once eaten.
- Using a
Seasoning or 
Rotproof Rockgrain as additional ingredient will extend the effect's duration by 5 or 20 days.
- Using a
- Provisions' effects can be enhanced by using two Seasonings as additional ingredient.
- Since Tales Within the Sand's Expansion II, Forever Provisions are added, whose effects last indefinitely as in Fire Within the Sand.
