Something strange

[jimmy6154]

In my quest to get boss mobs loots corrects. I noticed that using EqeMu admin that most boss mobs have a loot table established. Some correct and some not.

The issue as to why they do not drop loot more randomly is this I think.

Most loot tables for mobs consist of at least 1 item that is set to drop 100% of the time. When a boss mobs only has 1 loot table I think this item being set to 100% does not give any other item in the table at a lesser % a chance to drop.

Example: On Terris thule, she drops about 10 differant things I think. Some are gems. These gems were set to drop 100% of the time and the item loot was set to 20%. When Terris thule was killed the gem was the only thing that dropped becasue it was set to drop 100% of the time.

In testing I adjusted the table so that everything had a 50% chance of droping. I then reset the my server and killed Terris thule. Now this time she dropped like 4 gems and 3 items.

This still isn't right and needs to be tweaked a bit I think so that she isn't dropping 7 things at once, but at least she is now dropping loot.

I tested this on innoruk with basicly the same end results.

Let me know what you guys think.
