Since Potter's Clay isn't supposed to be for making HQ clay but infact just for the colour of it as said by the devs in the last stream, bone clay should be removed from the recipe with how much of a nightmare it actually is to make bone clay since its almost impossible to get better Q potters clay than the bone clay you put in to it. If its "just for the colour" then it should be way more easily accessible.
If they REALLY want it to be shit Q and just for colour then revert to the old recipe of ball,gray,acre + brick and remove the brick Q from the equation or just have it ball/gray/acre. Though, since its end result is to just be a pink brick, you should also get 3 pieces out from requiring 3 pieces of clay to craft it.
Or alternatively y'know, bring back the old recipe and let us have high q clay that isn't cancer to make.
