Monster Drops
Update as of August 6, 2013.
According to Release Notes 2013-07-30:
- 2 star materials and higher now only drop from a specific monster family.
- Some rare monsters now have a chance to drop new items.
Make adjustments to the "Dropped/Obtained From" column of materials table accordingly. Also adjust "Drops" for each monster in each monster details SK wiki article (e.g. Gun Puppy, Devilite) to match up.
Possible Future Updates
~ Material Finder (via Arcade Redux Phase 1 of October 16, 2013 release) ~ Clockwork locations to where common materials are found in (detailed in each common material's description. Would require change to SKCraftEntry template.). ~ If Materials article becomes too large, consider a separate article(s) for "List of Materials."
