Sausage isn't terrible - I explored most of mistlands using it with bread and lox meat pie - but it's something I already have tons of ingredients to make if I want it and so it doesn't feel very rewarding to find in a "secret" treasure room.

Good point about the soft tissue not being used for consumables, although I imagine for anyone playing multiplayer, they're going to be forced to kill lots of Dvergr to get everyone kitted out. Sad day for the Dvergr. :p

In general, I'm very happy with the Mistlands update as it currently is, so I'm curious to see what, exactly, the changes are they're going to make (not just "changed crafting costs" but the actual quantities etc.).

I don't mind reducing Seeker Soldier spawn rates a bit, as they do seem too common and mandibles aren't really needed after you craft a few things, but Gjall spawn rates feel fine to me, especially if they can only launch one fireball at a time. Once you have the arbalest, Gjall aren't nearly as terrifying.
