📋 About This Mod
This mod tweaks the drop rate for Tempered Monsters in the Guiding Lands in my best attempts of making grinding a bit easier but still balanced. It basically lowers the drop rate of Bone Materials to give way for increased chances of getting Monster-specific materials and Spiritvein Gems. This was originally just for my personal use but I decided to upload it anyway because why not.
This does not change the number of materials that a monster drops:
If you want that, you can use Guiding Land Monster Drops Overloaded by Victor011298 / NLW instead.
Another alternate tweak made by Zaline which includes overloaded drops and up-to-date versions!
REQUIRES STRACKER'S LOADER
UPDATE v1. 1: - Spiritvein Bones have their droprate slightly/moderately reduced while increasing Tempered Monster-specific Material drop rates
- Monster-specific Material drop rates changed for Non-Tempered Monsters (before: 37~67% depending on Area Level | after: 75% regardless of Area Level)
INSTALLATION:
Extract .zip after downloading then place 'nativePC' into your game folder.
COMPATIBILITY:
