Would it be good idea to start making somekind of a drop database?
Like whats monsters drops what items..
I'd like to find better bows myself but i dont really know what monsters drops bows. So if someone who knows how to code webpage could code that kind of databse, others users could report drops in to that databse and then everyone could search by items or by monster what do they drop.
Hope you understand what i'm talking about :P still my english is not too good :rolleyes2:

Of course I understand what you want.

But do you think the loot depends on the monster ?

I think the harder the monster is, the better is the loot. So, it isn't possible to create a list.

Ofcourse harder the monster better the loot, but i think not all monsters drop all items. Like some drops only Battlebows and others Only rapiers, or like that.

Edit: or did you mean harder monster is for you better the loot is?

Hi,

this DB of drops was discussed (privately) a long time ago with some friends of mine, the conclusion at that time was that it was a time-wasting activity, not for the idea itself, but for the constant change of items, mobs, places were they were (and for everything else).

I'm not sure if the mob distribution/dropping has settled down, of course; you can try to gather info on a few mobs, trying to figure out if there is really an association between mobs and items.

I would be glad to help publishing that kind of info (time permitting).

In any case, feel free to PM me.

Cheers.

part of the drops are completely dynamic so it would be impossible to map.

other parts are static maybe you can map those ;)

I think last week the monsters dropped much more stuff.

Now it seems a little bit harder to get good items.

Kind of off-topic: I'm a level 22 knight, so Orc Marauders are Easy for me, but they drop black pearls and I haven't found anything yet that drops more valuable loot (and requires little effort to get). So I've been killing them lately. Since there AREN'T ANY NEW QUESTS, it's the least I can do to scrape up gold until I can replace my armor (weapons especially ;))
