Hotfix 0.8.2.1
We changed the way special ingredients drop.
Before chances where:
60% ingredient
25% skin item
8% recipe
7% special ingredient
Now a drop works like:
60% ingredient
30% skin item
10% recipe
And a 20% chance to get a special ingredient in addition to the normal drop.
This way you will get a lot more special ingredients and also get more other drops.
To reflect the higher quantity of special ingredients received, we lowered their rarity to rare.
