This is simple mod that changes monsters' normal and rare items drop chance to 50% each battle. Would make hunting for ingredients easy.
IMPORTANT: Version 0.0.6 fixed a bug. Now monsters that should 100% drop in the original game will not be affected by this mod and will drop with the intended rate (100%).
