Weapons & Equip Steal the King's Crown!

The Slime Crown. Insanely hard to get due to the fact that it costs 30 Gold or Platinum Bars. And you know what? Most of the King Slime's drops are rare. So what do we do? I wouldn't want to ruin the satisfaction of wearing a crown on your head, but making the Crown have infinite uses would break the trend of the boss summoners. So, my proposal? Pull a Lepus.

Every time you kill the King Slime, it has a 50% chance to drop it's crown. Yes, the same one you use to summon him. There's a chance that you won't get the crown, which means you'll have to craft another one, making it so it isn't completely effortless to farm him. But this'll make it easier to get the Slimy Saddle, Slime Gun and Slime Hook. What do you think?
 
King Slime is positioned as being the 'first' boss, but is optional. By the time you've amassed enough ore to make 30 gold/platinum bars, you've probably defeated (or are trying to defeat) BoC / EoW and are trying to save for armour. Later, why bother fighting it unless you're trying to get items? Given how ridiculously inefficient it is to get the materials - 120 ore for 30 bars, plus a ruby and 99 gel - it's far easier to just go to the edge of the map, use a Water Candle and wait.

Now that I've justified my opinion... yes, a better method is needed. If not making the crown easier to craft, then King Slime should drop its own crown at times. Support.
