The current meat drop rates and bait costs create an imbalance
Problem number 1 : Low Meat Drop Rates
Buffaloes drop 3–0 filet Which is very low
Boars drop only 1–2 filet.
Problem number 2 : High Bait Requirements
Crafting a single bait requires 15–16 meat
( Boars and Alligator Baits )
which is very costly given the low drops.
This makes farming meat for bait inefficient and time-consuming, especially for regular play
Suggestions to Address the Problem :
- Increase Meat Drop Rates
Buffalo: guarantee 2–4 filets per kill (instead of 0–3).
Boar: guarantee 2–3 filets per kill.
- Adjust Bait Recipe Costs
Reduce meat requirement from 15–16 to something like 10–12 per bait.
3 ) Or Make Boar and alligator baits require the same meat for that exact tier
Meaning :
t7 boar bait requires t7 meat
T4 boar requires t4 meat
And alligator requires t5 meat
These changes would improve gameplay flow and make hunting more rewarding without hurting game balance. Thank you!
