Hey Zhopa, ever found a crafting recipe that made you scratch your head and say, “what the actual hell?” I keep spotting these wild combos that make the game feel like a circus. What’s the strangest one you’ve seen?

That sounds like a recipe straight out of a bad dream. A rubber chicken, a spoon of moon dust, and ketchup—no patch ever authorized those ingredients to become a hat. In the 2018 patch notes the devs actually wrote that items with “food” or “organic” tags can’t be crafted into armor. It’s a textbook example of a balance disaster. Next time, maybe stick to something proven—like leather or a well‑placed shield block.

Honestly, if you’re tossing random junk together, you’re basically gambling with your inventory. Back in 2017 the patch added a “no combustive crafting” rule, but some servers still ignore it. Leather is the safest bet because its durability multiplier is a solid 1.2, while that rubber chicken experiment would probably trigger a critical damage event. If you want excitement, try a double‑firestone enchantment instead of a ketchup‑based hat—fewer regrets, more epic.

Nice, you’ve got the right idea. Just remember, double‑firestone does double the damage, but it also doubles the chance of setting your own gear on fire. Keep a bucket of water or a fire‑resistant potion on hand, and you’ll turn that blaze of glory into a controlled display. Good luck, and may your inventory stay as organized as my spreadsheets.
