Modified the equip (drop) chance of monster infrequents from 2x to 4x compared to the original chance.

Most of the monster infrequents have originally a 0.4% chance to drop, but monsters also have a chance to equip a piece of gear in a slot when they spawn. I boosted the chance to equip the MI related to the chance of equipping gear in that slot (IE: 50% to equip anything > 3x, 10% chance > 4x).

Many boss monsters will have a higher chance to drop MI items and unique items, some of them simply had the same chances of a normal monster (at least 2.5x the chance of the normal monster).

Modified the prefix and suffix generation for Monster Infrequents.

Before: 45% only prefix, 45% only suffix, 10% both prefix and suffix.
Now: 25% only prefix, 25% only suffix, 50% both prefix and suffix.

All rare prefixes and suffixes now have a 50% increased chance to appear on epic, and a 100% increased chance on legendary.

Prismatic rare prefix now has proper scaling elemental resistance. Pretty much needed on higher difficulties.

Old: 15 - 15 - 15 - 21
Now: 15 - 18 - 21 - 24

Less health regen loss for the rare poison retaliation prefixes. Too taxing for the effect.

Old: -3 , -7, -15
New: -2 , -4.5, -10

The suffix "of smithing" has a very low chance to blow up the enemy life. Doesn't make much against bosses anyways.

From 3% to 5% chance.

High-end life regeneration suffixes slightly buffed in the plain health per second.

Old: 2 - 2.5 - 3 - 3.5 - 4
Now: 2 - 2.5 - 3 - 4 - 5

Added to Gryphon rare suffix some elemental damage percent scaling.

Old: 21 - 21 - 21 - 21
New: 21 - 24 - 27 - 30


How do I exactly replace the database?

1. Locate the mod folder. In steam subscriptions is on: [Steam folder]\steamapps\workshop\content\475150\1402921381

2. Locate the original database.arz file under the game folder (in a steam version would be something like: [Steam folder]\steamapps\common\Titan Quest Anniversary Edition\Database\). Make a backup copy of the file as a security measure. With steam you can just verify game cache under the game properties in the library to recover the original database.

3. Get the database arz file from the mod, paste it directly under the game database folder, rename/replace database.arz.

4. Good to go! just play the game with or without mods, these changes will be permanent. Keep in mind the database may be reverted if the game updates to a new version.

What happens with the modified prefixes-suffixes and the loot obtained if I return to the vanilla database?

All the prefixes and suffixes changed will return back to their original values. The loot obtained would be the same with the unmodded game.

This is considered a legit way to farm for monster infrequents?

Is really up to you to decide. The key features to do it:

- The prefixes/suffixes that may appear on the MIs are just the same.

- The drop chances are more aligned with the vanilla act 5 rates (still those were buffed but to a much lesser extent, because they were more solid).

- Only the boost from 10% to 50% to get both prefix and suffix is really something.

If I replace the database, is multiplayer compatible?

Not sure, I would say the game would not notice the changes and let play players with/without this modifications. But for sure needs proper testing, especially because of the modified prefixes/suffixes.
