Tankard of Celebration
Last year, this transmute was 50gp and 200gp. Can be done with 1c and 2 different uncommons.
The comp this year, ridiculous as inflation has become in this market, would be 50gp and 250gp, 1c and 2 different uncommons.
Monster Bits
2019 had a severe dearth of MBs by accident. Yet, the recipes had MBs as typical, with Bead not just putting pressure on acquiring 6 different but Orion's putting even more pressure on the same limited set of MBs. Maybe it's just me but 2020 MBs seem normal for, um, at least one obvious reason - the mix % is not cut in half. Thusly, seems like recipes should generally try to make more use of MBs to be more typical of previous years' recipes.
Admittedly, gold is on rise with uncommon and rare inflation, but there seems an overreliance on specifically 1000gp. Three blue recipes specifically take 1000gp. Kind of odd the fourth is different, especially when one might say the bead and the shirt are kind of similar.
Speaking of inflation ...
Amulet of Noble Might
Comping to MoFA (as most similar 2020 relic recipe), could drop 5x Plank and 5x DS. But, Plank is still absurdly abundant, so could maybe see just 5x DS less.
Ashenne's
Psyferre's is not just going to be popular, it's also a tribute token. Unless the goal is less Psyferre's than other URs or, far more likely, less Ashenne's (because, perhaps, reasons?), the obvious replacement is Platinum Nugget ... or, maybe, Pants of Focus.
Comparing to Ralson's, which is oddly similar or maybe not since lots of recipes are similar to each other, extra Bismuth and extra Oil for 10x less DS but 5x more PS. While thematically weird, let's say EB and OE are pumped. would drop MH by like 10.
Druegar's
Comping to Bog's, I would drop an EB. Not entirely sure why increasing EB and OE in recipes is that exciting, though they aren't much used in other transmutes in this year, so there is that, but it's clear recipe inflation without sucking out more Planks, MS.
Shirt of the Elder
Now, on the one hand this is conceptually similar to bead, on the other it's completely different because this is supposed to be a 3*. 3* are getting really expensive, as it's pretty comparable to Ring of Fervor. OTOH, it's basically the Charm of Timely Aid recipe. Suggests that maybe Ring of Fervor was overcosted and try to undo that some.
Mage Medallion
As brought up, this is much higher than PotY and more AP than the legendary.
Sacred Necklace
Comping on NotSD and looking at Druegar's, 5x less AI would be very fitting.
Skull of Cavadar
Would drop the 1000gp for aesthetic reasons, not because it will have any impact on how many get made. It's the last eldritch (in theory), can just let it go and leave some gp to pile into all of these other transmutes such that maybe the blues will get made a bit more.
Viv's
Would basically be Bog's recipe with either one less EB or one less OE. For same reasons, would rather not see the clear inflation and focus more on sucking out low value trade goods. Now, alternatively, leave EB and OE alone to have some use for those and decrease AI or AP or both.
