The Adventurer's Backpack Creation adds four distinct types of basic backpacks: Leather, Fur, Dark Leather, and Fine - as well as four 'upgraded' versions: Adventurer, Hunter, Thief, and Mage respectively.


However, each basic backpack could only appear in that one upgraded form - an Adventurer backpack would always be a Leather backpack, a Hunter backpack would always be Fur, and so on.


Unfortunately, this left you somewhat limited in your options - if you wanted to use a Mage backpack, it had to be a Fine backpack.


This was something that always bothered me - so I decided to do something about it.

MIX & MATCH


Each of the four basic backpacks can now be upgraded into any type of backpack regardless of style:


Leather: Leather Adventurer, Leather Mage, Leather Thief, Leather Hunter
Fur: Fur Adventurer, Fur Mage, Fur Thief, Fur Hunter
Dark: Dark Adventurer, Dark Mage, Dark Thief, Dark Hunter
Fine: Fine Adventurer, Fine Mage, Fine Thief, Fine Hunter


CRAFTING OVERHAUL


The crafting recipes for the four basic backpacks are unchanged from the Creation.


The crafting recipes for the upgraded backpacks will now only appear if you have a basic backpack in your inventory.
(For example: if you are have a Fine backpack, you will then see the recipes for Fine Adventurer, Fine Hunter, Fine Thief, and Fine Mage backpacks)


There is no cost to upgrade a basic backpack to an upgraded backpack - the recipe only requires the basic backpack, which will be swapped out for the upgraded backpack.


DECONSTRUCTION


You can also now deconstruct upgraded backpacks into their basic versions. Like upgrading, this doesn't require anything aside from the backpack, which will simply be swapped out.


These crafting recipes will only appear if you are carrying a backpack that can be deconstructed.


BEDROLLS


All backpacks (basic and upgraded) can be equipped with a bedroll.


Like upgrading, recipes to add a bedroll will only appear for whatever backpack(s) you are carrying. Similarly, recipes to remove the bedroll will only appear if you already have a bedroll attached.


There is no cost to add or remove a bedroll, it will simply be swapped out.


MERCHANTS


Merchants will now only sell the four basic types of backpacks. This was done to make it easier to locate whichever type you want if you don't want to craft them.


You can then take the basic backpack to a forge to upgrade it however you want at no cost.
