Understand Recipe Cost Changes and Rebalancing

What Changed

This data pack modifies the costs of many standard Cobblemon recipes to rebalance survival progression. Some items may now be cheaper or more expensive to craft, shifting when you can realistically obtain them in your playthrough.

Checking Recipe Costs

1. Use JEI (Just Enough Items) or NEI to hover over any Cobblemon item

2. Click the recipe tab to see the ingredients and their quantities

3. Compare against what you remember or what the vanilla Cobblemon wiki shows—differences indicate rebalancing

4. Plan your resource gathering based on the new costs

Planning Your Progression

Before committing to a major craft, always verify the recipe cost. Early-game items might require more resources now, while late-game gear could be more accessible. This rebalancing encourages different playstyles—some players may rush certain recipes while avoiding others. Adjust your farming and mining priorities accordingly to match the new economy.
