Item Drop modifiers
- Item drop modifiers are multiplicative, i.e. if an item has a natural drop rate of X% and the player has a modifier of Y%, the total drop rate is X*(1+Y/100)%. A total over 100% will mean the item will always drop.
- If an item only dropped due to item drop modifiers, then the line will read "You found an item" rather than "You got an item", unless it was your sidekick-based modifier, then the message is "<Sidekick> found an item".
- Amounts for Skills are affected by S, the number of
skill points invested in the skill.
