    Just a heads up about the new recipie for "Plumed Walnut Maku...thingy"

    So once upon a time, This weapon took walnut plank to make, even though it was named "Plumed Oak Macuahuitl". After much feedback about it, it was finally changed into "Plumed Walnut Macuahuitl".. But now, the recipe for it is being simplified. Good thing it is, however, it now requires Oak Lumber instead of walnut plank, but the name is still "Plumed Walnut Macuahuitl"..

    Suggesting it be changed to "Plumed Oak Macuahuitl". ^^


    Edit: actually there are quite a few errors in item names vs. recipe requirements, like Steel Trident needing Cobalt ingots.

    Hey guys!

    Great catches. As happens every patch, items are first named -> then translated -> and then given recipes. After all this is done, the development team goes back through the items and starts tweaking the stats and recipes to maintain cross-class balance. It is at this time that something that was originally intended to contain steel ingots, can be changed to contain mythril, etc. A bunch of this tweaking occurred right up to our deadline, thus the discrepancies, but you can rest assured that the names have actually already been fixed (in-game). I apologize that an older list was released, and I'll see if we can't get a new one up there later today.

    Thanks for your understanding!
