About this mod
Adds two items — Mega Catalyst and Mega Dash Juice — along with 76 new balanced recipes.
Throwing Knives become craftable and storable without changing carry capacity or making them stronger.
Items requiring monster drops or Melding, like Dash Juice and Mega Demondrug, gain Botany friendly recipes.

this mod adds two items — mega catalyst and mega dash juice — along with 76 new crafting recipes.
* mega dash juice has the same effects as regular dash juice. it currently only exists to be crafted into ancient potions without requiring kelbi horns.
all recipes are designed with fair scaling, balance, and game integrity in mind for multiplayer.

throwing knives and coated throwing knives are no longer supply items.
craft them with slashberries and store them in your item box.
unlike existing knife mods, their carry capacity and power remains unchanged.

use botany to craft important consumables that normally require monster parts or melding, such as:
- dash juice
- ancient potion
- mega demondrug
- mega armorskin
- banishing ball
other uses for new recipes:
- convert golden eggs into meal vouchers and gourmet vouchers.
- craft whetstone fins and sushifish scales from piscine wyvern drops.
- use mega catalysts to upgrade fish scales to their great versions.
- turn supply first-aid meds+ into max potions with mega catalysts.
- craft extra coatings and ammo with both types of catalysts and regular gunpowder.
- turn rations into well-done steaks, astera jerky, and pawswap treats.
- craft more materials from monster parts, such as screamer sacs from diablos parts.
some item descriptions are updated with their new crafting purpose, better consistency, and more flavor.
the following 76 crafting recipes are added, starting at number 102:
* recipes that come last in the crafting list take priority when auto-crafting from the radial menu. rearrange the recipes to change their priority.

the rest are recipes for bow coatings and bowgun ammo:
version 1.1
![](https://i.imgur.com/Lae5PL1.png)
bring mega catalysts to master rank quests to craft max potions out of supply box first-aid meds+.
make use of the supply box again and avoid bringing your own mega potions and max potions entirely.
bring rations and catalysts against monsters that hit hard or cause bleeding to create additional astera jerky.
bring antidote and nutrients against monsters that use poison and venom to create additional herbal medicines.
pawswap treats become field craftable alternatives to sushifish scales.
treats restore 35 health and scales restore 50 health. they both take 1 second to consume.
when using a sushifish scale to craft protectors: dried goldenfish and troupers: horned urchin,
its 50 health heal is split into 3 separate 35 health heals.
add crafting hotkeys for your throwing knives to your radial menu.
craft more knives before running out so you don't have to re-equip them.
