CONSISTENT CRAFTING RECIPES

• All crafting recipes have been reworked for greater consistency. I have tried to standardize the recipe patterns that existed in the vanilla game and apply them more reliably across all armor and weapon types. The basic recipe formulas, as used by CCO, are:
  • Boots = 3 primary - 1 secondary - 1 leather - 2 leather strips
  • Cuirass = 5 primary - 2 secondary - 2 leather - 4 leather strips
  • Gauntlets = 2primary - 1 secondary - 1 leather - 2 leather strips
  • Helmet = 3 primary - 1 secondary - 1 leather - 1 leather strip
  • Shield = 4 primary - 1 secondary - 2 leather strips
  • Dagger = 1 primary - 1 secondary - 1 leather strip
  • Sword = 2 primary - 1 secondary - 1 leather strip
  • War Axe = 2 primary - 1 secondary - 2 leather strips
  • Mace = 3 primary - 1 secondary - 2 leather strips
  • Greatsword = 3 primary - 1 secondary - 2 leather strips
  • Battleaxe = 3 primary - 2 secondary - 3 leather strips
  • Warhammer = 4 primary - 2 secondary - 3 leather strips
  • Bow = 3 primary - 1 secondary - 2 leather strips
  • Arrows x24 = 1 primary - 2 firewood - 1 leather strip
    
  
  

• Different gemstones are now associated with specific ore deposits:
  • Iron = Amethysts, Sapphires
  • Corundum = Garnets, Rubies
  • Silver = Rubies, Sapphires, Emeralds
  • Orchialum = Garnets, Amethysts, Rubies, Sapphires
  • Gold = Garnets, Amethysts, Emeralds
  • Quicksilver = Rubies, Emeralds
  • Moonstone = Garnets, Emeralds
  • Malachite = Amethysts, Diamonds
  • Ebony = Amethysts, Diamonds
    
  
  These relationships were chosen both for balance with regard to game play, as well as a loose reference to actual geologic/mineralogical properties. For example, diamonds and amethysts are generally associated with igneous (volcanic) rocks; therefore, they've been tied to glass and ebony deposits which are also supposedly volcanic in nature. The color of amethysts and sapphires are in part due to the presence of iron, and so they are found with iron deposits, and so on. Most of the associations have some foundation in real-life properties, though due to game limitations, these are generally just loose interpretations.
