The recovery compass has been reworked. When held in either your mainhand or offhand, the items from your last death will glow blue and not despawn.
Its recipe also now costs 4 shards, rather than 8.
History
| 1.4.0 | * | The recovery compass has different behavior: - Before: Carry recovery compass, die with it in your inventory and it will respawn with you and the items from that death glow and will not despawn
- After: Hold recovery compass in your hand at any time, the items from your last death will glow and not despawn
No longer needs to be in your inventory on death to have any item-preserving effect - This was the main issue, I didn’t want to take an inventory slot from players just to make the compass usable
When held, the items from your last death glow and will not despawn Crafting cost halved down to four echo shards and a compass No longer stays with you after death - It is intended to be an item to use after you die, not an item you carry around wasting an inventory slot everywhere you go
- This change pushes you to be more careful after you die the first time, rather than dying over and over however many times you like
- This has been counterbalanced with the reduced cost
