You obviously didn't read the thread. He suggested that it's removed from chests, but the materials stay there so you can craft them. And then, this makes more sense to me, instead of simply removing FnS we could increase the spawning rate of the materials to craft it.
Oh, sorry, didn't see that part. In my opinion, yes.

I'm assuming flint & Steel will be a bit more hard to come by in chests when/if Teir 3's come in, since Tier 1 & 2 would be nurfed.

I hate those games when I have 5+ flint and steels. Makes my inventory ugly. :oops:

I hate to say this since I use Flint and Steel a lot but, they're really OP and should be majorly nerfed. Also

If the rate of spawning of iron and flint is increased that would lead to more iron swords and more arrows too.

I like this idea but I don't think they should increase the spawning rate of iron or flint. I get a ton of it everygame and always use it to make flint n steel, and end up with like 3 flint n steel from my extra iron and flint. If they made the spawn rate of iron and flint higher it would just lead to even more arrows and even more iron swords.

I already make the decision to craft swords, FnS or arrows every game. Most of the time it's 10+ FnS but it's a tier 2 item, so it's not like they're everywhere. I think it's good to have in chests as an out if you can't get a hand on materials.


I like this idea, I hate having like 10+ FnS during game.

I think if they did this, they would also have to increase the chance of Iron and Flint spawning in chests. I can see why you'd want this done, and I support it fully if they increased the chance of the materials spawning because then you might have an equal to now chance of getting a flint and steel, but you'd also have to go through the risk of crafting it which can be there at any time.
The problem with that is it defeats the purpose of having to choose between swords and arrows and FnS. FnS isn't that common in chests so I normally have to craft it anyway; this could result in more flint and steel, arrows, and swords. If this were to happen the spawn rates would need to stay the same.

No because Flint and Steels only have 4 uses so it would be a waste of iron and flint
