Drop Table Balance について

Don’t think this is gonna be a 100% Gold Remake, it’ll have its differences. Extra battles (some’ll be optionals, tough but rewarding), Hoenn Pokemon (in every area, and hard to find) New areas, Remapped some dungeons (so your old guides wont work) , Extra recurring characters (some’ll hate you, some’ll help you)

Note that the hack is incomplete but feel free to enjoy the hack as-is.

Secret of Mana Drop Table Balance Hack 1.1
by Kethinov                       Nov 2017
==========================================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This hack overhauls the monster chest drop table in order to help ameliorate a number of annoying issues in the original game, such as:

- The very beginning of the game requires too much grinding to get decent equipment.
- Monsters drop obsolete armor too often.
- Some armor is never encountered because it is too rare.
- Generally speaking there is too much armor in the game.
- There is little incentive to fight and defeat many of the game's monsters due to how useless the prizes are and how difficult they can be to kill at times.
- Some armor is permanently missable, including the best helmet in the game for the hero: the Griffin Helm.
- Getting the level 9 weapon orbs is too much work to be worth it because they are too rare.

These problems create a propensity for unfun grinding in Secret of Mana if you want to acquire all the best equipment. In playthroughs you will hit level 99 on all characters long before you get all the best armor and weapons.

What this hack does:

- Which monsters drop which items has been rearranged significantly.
- Early enemies drop more money now via chests to make early equipment sold by vendors actually affordable.
- Monsters will now generally drop armor that is better than what you have.
- The best equipment (top weapon orbs/top armor) drops more easily now.
- The following armor has been deleted from the game: Cocatrice Cap, Amulet Helm, Guardian Ring, Dragon Ring, Watcher Ring, Imp's Ring. There was no place to put them that didn't make them too rare, or too powerful, or recur later at times when they'd be obsolete.
- A typical playthrough should now result in acquiring nearly all pieces of the remaining armor at some point. You should miss very few pieces now. And they will be acquired at times that are useful rather than useless.
- No items are permanently missable now. If you miss something, you can either get it in the Mana Fortress, or in an old level that is revisitable. Notably, the Griffin Helm and Faerie Cloak are easier to acquire in the Pure Land, but both can be gotten as rare drops in the Mana Fortress now.
- Faerie Walnuts and other useful consumables will drop more often from more monsters now.

Consider alternatives:

This hack was created before the explosion of dozens of new SoM hacks some years later. Since then, a number of better approaches to solving the problems this hack attempted to solve have been created. Some hacks worth trying instead:

- Adjust Enemy Difficulty: https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4435/
- Equipment Progression Balance: https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4422/
- Level 9 Weapons Progression Balance: https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4309/
- No Missable Monsters: https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4555/

However, one benefit of using this hack instead of the other more comprehensive overhauls is this hack only alters the drop table and nothing else, so it can be layered on top of other hacks somewhat cleanly, including the other overhauls. Your mileage may vary.

Important things to note:

- This hack is not compatible with the following hacks, which alter the drop table in an incompatible way: Masterflow’s Hard Mode, Kethinov’s Equipment Progression Balance, and Timbo’s Equipment Overhaul.
- This hack is compatible with Faerie Coconut, but only if Faerie Coconut is applied after.

Detailed changes listed below.

Balance considerations:

Helms:
- Bandana is often inadvisable to buy at Potos because people tend to save their money for Gaia's Navel:
  - Early enemies drop more money now.
- Golden Tiara needed to spawn before it can be bought in Todo so it is not immediately superseded by better buyables from the same vendor:
  - Now dropped by Crawler (common/rare) and Steamed Crab (common/rare) in Upper Land.
- Circlet needed to spawn before it can be bought in Mandala so it is not immediately superseded by better buyables from the same vendor:
  - Now dropped by Robin Foot (rare) and Sand Stinger (rare) in Kakkara Desert.
- Griffin Helm needed to spawn more easily and not be missable:
  - Now dropped by Griffin Hand (common/rare) in Pure Land and Terminator (rare) in Mana Fortress.
- Faerie Crown needed to spawn more easily:
  - Now dropped by Mushgloom (common/rare) in Pure Land.
  - Also dropped by Fiend Head (rare), Wolf Lord (rare), and Metal Crab (rare) in Mana Fortress.

Armor:
- Chain Vest and Kung Fu Dress are too expensive to buy at Kippo:
  - Early enemies drop more money now.
- Chest Guard needed to spawn before it can be bought in Todo so it is not immediately superseded by better buyables from the same vendor:
  - Now dropped by Kimono Birds (common/rare) in Upper Land.
- Magical Armor needed to spawn before it can be bought in Mandala so it is not immediately superseded by better buyables from the same vendor:
  - Now dropped by Armored Man (rare).
- Tortoise Mail needed to spawn before it can be bought in Tasnica so it is not immediately superseded by better buyables from the same vendor:
  - Now dropped by Dark Ninja (common) in Empire Castle.
- Flower Suit needed to spawn before it can be bought in Gold City so it is not immediately superseded by better buyables from the same vendor:
  - Now dropped by Dark Ninja (rare) in Empire Castle.
- Power Suit needed to spawn more easily:
  - Now dropped by Ghost (common/rare) in the Pure Land and Master Ninja (rare) in the Mana Fortress.

Arms:
- Wristband is often inadvisable to buy at Pandora because people tend to save their money for Gaia's Navel:
  - Early enemies drop more money now.
- Elbow Pad is often inadvisable to buy at Kippo because people tend to save their money for Gaia's Navel:
  - Early enemies drop more money now.
- Ivy Amulet needed to spawn before it can be bought in Mandala so it is not immediately superseded by better drops before it becomes buyable:
  - Now dropped by Mad Mallards (common) and Spider Legs (common) in Kakkara Desert.
- Gold Bracelet needed to spawn before it can be bought in Tasnica so it is not immediately superseded by better drops before it becomes buyable: 
  - Now dropped by Sand Stinger (common) in Kakkara Desert.
- Shield Ring needed to spawn before it can be bought in Gold City so it is not immediately superseded by better drops before it becomes buyable: 
  - Now dropped by Robin Foot (common) in the Fire Palace.
- Gauntlet needed to spawn before it can be bought in Sunken Continent so it is not immediately superseded by better drops before it becomes buyable:
  - Now dropped by Lofty Mountain enemies (rare) and Nitro Pumpkin (common/rare).
- Ninja Gloves needed to spawn before the Pure Land so it is not immediately superseded by better drops:
  - Now dropped by Metal Crawler (common) in Sunken Continent.
- Amulet Ring needed to spawn before the Pure Land so it gets used so it is not immediately superseded by better drops:
  - Now dropped by Eggplant Man / Needlion (common/rare) in various places and gremlins (common/rare) in Sunken Continent.
- Faerie Ring needed to spawn more easily:
  - Now dropped by Tsunami (common/rare) in Mana Fortress.
