The Shiny Red Balloon and Lucky Horseshoe are examples of items that are needed to craft multiple items, while also being available only once per world. That presents a problem for those that refuse to loot other worlds, constraining their character to one land only.
Easy fix.
Shiny Red Balloon
-Interchangeable with the
in any recipe using either of 'em
-Also dropped by
(2%)
Sharkron Balloon
-Can replace the
in the
recipe
-Jump height nerfed by four blocks to be identical
The Balloon Pufferfish is totally listening to Gettin' Jiggy Wit It. I mean, it's a balloon with spikes.
Ciga-cigar right from Cuba-Cuba
I just bite it
It's for the look I don't light it
This solution is much easier than the Horseshoe, considering that we have an alternate balloon already available, just like with the Hermes Boots, Cloud in a Bottle and various other accessories. The only change is that now they're interchangeable in crafting as well.
Yes, I'm aware that the Sky Crate provides technical renewability for sky items; however, I don't feel like that extent of RNG is justified for someone who just wants a bundle of balloons, which isn't a game-breaking accessory by any means.
Lucky Horseshoe
-Now protects from Stoned damage as well
-Now dropped by
(1.5%)
-Now used to craft a Horseshoe Bundle of Balloons that protects from fall damage as well as giving the extra jumps/jump height

The reason I didn't make the recipe include the three Horseshoe Balloons is because I felt that amount of grinding transcended "fun" and went straight into "unpleasant" and "punishing" territory. I didn't do a similar change in the Bundle of Balloons recipe (which would've been the Shiny Red Balloon + the three bottle items) because it, to some extent, made the balloon items useless to obtain. Besides, the balloon is somewhat easier to find anyway, since adventuring underground or fishing is not too difficult. This all is subject to change with sufficientbacklash constructive criticism.
