Blacksmith gold ore recipe feels eggregious

Post by dawnraider »

Of all the recipes for the blacksmith, easily the worst one to complete is the gold ore recipe. With how rare gold ore is, getting 20+ ore to give him can be quite difficult to complete. When it used to be ingots, building a nether gold farm could help, but now there is no way to make this trade easier. I think it would be better balanced requiring fewer chunks of ore to complete.

I'll take a look. For future reference please leave out the suggestion at the end. It's entirely unnecessary and usually just complicates an issue by biasing me against the proposed solution.

My suggestion related gag reflex still seems to be very much alive and well :)

Changed ore trades (both gold and iron) to nuggets for next release. I had originally used ore for narrative purposes with regards to the blacksmith wanting a furnace to smelt his own ores, but given that it's a one way conversion from ore to nugget, decided it was too potentially punitive to people that might already have a smelted stockpile of nuggets.
