Are there any plans to increase the drop-rates of meat and fish ? Certain mobs seem to drop sufficient whereas some barely drop any at all . That makes leveling cooking very very harsh, and you need to get it to Talent 5 in order to be able to cook the lvl 50 sub-meals since you otherwise cannot reach the discovery targets.
 
Example : I'm currently stuck on Terminite Guts that only drops off Cobalt Pinchers in Farside. In addition to them being spread out thin with a slow-ish ( compared to my kill time ) respawn rate , their drop rate is abysmal ( There's a lot of Cobalt Burrowers but the Guts aren't in their drop table ). On the other hand the hookfoot meat drops just fine from the Craterclaws nearby.
 
This is all with Tier 5 Survivalist.
 
Edit: With further inspection it seems each Cooking Tier Achievement gives access to new cooking ingredients. Can anyone confirm that if I just get the Tier V one I'll be able to reach the targets on Elder Meals and Special Diet ?

Bump.
 
While you can level cooking with just Cooking I to V, trying to get all the achievements for the talent points is still insane due to bogus drop rates of meat.
 
New example since I hit Wilderrun:
 
Compare the drop rate of the Dawngraze Sirloin to say the Snoglug Flesh or even Pumera Rump Meat.

			Yeah its a crazy farming believe me. I did it. The problem is you can't finish leveling up cooking because there are 2 recipes which don't drop anymore or seem so. Brightland Stew and Vindicator's risotto. If you got them before the F2P, cheers!

			lol @temite guts...it was the worst drop rate when i was leveling up my cooking.

			When you say Tier V, you mean cooking tier V?  If so then yes.  The additional ingredients is all you need.  But if you want to reduce the costs and create more and such, gotta hit lvl 7-8.  I hate the drop rate on DS recipes atm.  I wonder if they are dropping, no one is getting them, no one is selling them.

			Terminite guts exist?
