Starting items are:
1 weapon (depends on class as to what type)
20 bandages*
20 skin of milk*
20 bread cakes*
1 Note for guildmaster
1 backpack* (notrade version)
1 gloomingdeep lantern

and that's it for inventory items

bank contains:
1 gold coin
1 backpack (regular tradable version)

Lately, didn't the caster classes start with a few spells (for mem) also?

When did they do away with the Book of Discord, or whatever it was called? Come to think of it, I haven't seen that on a new toon in a while (always used to destroy them). How does a noob follow the ways of Discord these days?

And Angelox, I believe you are right for casters. I remember a recent mage having a basic level 1 shield and some fire spell. The rest I had to buy.

That is great info! I feel a WIKI page coming on!

tome of order and discord is handed out by the priest of discord

when you ask him about the [tome of order and discord] he gives you one and explains it... handing it back will make u pvp

and yes you are correct about the spells. i believe the caster classes each start out with a level 1 spell... additionally they also have a spell scribed in their spellbook usually... but i dont know if there is a way to implement that using the `start_items` table or not

edit:

i also made another post after taking the time to make a list of all the races/classes etc for the starting items table: http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/showthread.php?t=22079

might help you with the modifications

lol that was pretty much the whole reason i wrote it... seen the wiki for starting items recently?

Well get to it! Bust that baby into the page already. :D

(Wiki 101 can be a little tricky, but gets easier the more you play with it)

awesome info in this thread... was just wondering (and I'm probably posting this in the wrong thread but cannot find anything on it through searches) does anyone have the table of the 73 skills? I'm trying to figure out what each one of them are so I can edit a couple bugs I have found for a custom server, but wih there being 73 of them, that's a lot of trial and error... Thanks in advance!

Is this what you are looking for? The only other list I know of is here.

In this version all toons start with a lantern, weapon, milk, bread, bandages, note, tome, and a no trade backpack. I'll have to do some updating....after I get Nexus and Bazaar fixed. Oh well.
