Stealing uses the same calculation as vanilla. AFTER it calculates a successful steal, you have a 7/8 chance of getting a common item, and a 1/8 chance of getting a rare item. This remains true even if you have gotten one of the two items, so getting the rare item means you'll fail quite a bit.
I know that Tools have been getting most of the focus lately, because Subtraction developed the ASM for me something like 2 days before the v0.99 release, and it has required more fine-tuning than I anticipated. Anyway, I have decided to alter the Tool progression. The Debilitator, as one of the 2 tools that is unbreakable, has swapped places with the Chainsaw in every spot. So the Debilitator's in the chest in Zozo (which means you can get it before going to the Magitek Lab), and Chainsaw shows up in the shop when you reach the WoR. You can snag a WoB Chainsaw by stealing from the right bosses. Opening the chest in Zozo does not affect the shop in Figaro. However, getting the Flash in the Military Camp WILL cause it to be available in shops on the Phantom Train. For the 6 breakable tools, here is when they will be available:
Beginning of Game: Noise Blaster, Bio Blaster
After the Battle of Narshe: Auto Crossbow, Flash
After the Magitek Lab: Drill
World of Ruin: Chain Saw
Only Found in Chests or through Rare Steals: Debilitator, Air Anchor
I am also dropping the price of Shadow's Skeans by a bit to maintain balance.
