World Ingredients

I suggest to use Ingredients you get from mobs to upgrade your armor/weapons and other stuff. And resources from mining, woodcutting etc. are made to produce new weapons/armor.
I think this makes more sense to base the hole crafting this way.

 

This would make 0 sense to add.

They worked hard to do everything like it is right now and they won't change it just for you...

I also think you got something wrong. Appearently you get resources from mining, woodcutting fishing and farming and u produce weapons, armor, accessory, food, potions and scrolls and Ingredients are there to add effects to those...

Play the game before suggesting stuff.

 

Theyre meant for crafted items only...

it already does that lol

as Pumpkin said please play the game before suggesting

 

Last I checked materials gathered are what make the base of crafted items, and the ingredients from mobs are what give them stats. Unless a super revolutionary gameplay change was made and you are from the future trying to prevent this from happening, I don't quite understand what you are saying.
