Loot and Drops

Back: Home

1) What this system is

This page covers the current creature-family drop direction and dungeon chest loot rules.

2) Core rules (exact mechanics)

General rules:

• Most non-undead, non-excluded creatures now drop an essence every kill
• Standard essence drops are usually 1-2
• Side materials roll independently
• Side hides/materials usually roll 0-3
• Side meat/food usually roll 0-2
• Special single materials usually roll 0-1

Main exclusions:

• Desert chickens: no drops
• Hatworm: no drops
• Undead: no general-material drops
• Void creatures keep their own existing drop identity and are not covered by the general rework

3) Beast and wildlife drop families

4) Dungeon chest loot

Current dungeon chest behavior:

• Common dungeon chests roll 1-6 items
• Legendary/gold dungeon chests roll 4-12 items

Common chest themes:

• Bronze bars
• Silver bars
• eggs
• useful foraging/cooking ingredients

Legendary chest themes:

• Silver bars
• Gold bars
• useful forage/cooking ingredients
• gems at a lower rate than bars/materials

Important note:

• Duplicate rolls can happen if RNG lands on the same item more than once
• Dungeon chest cleanup was done through asset-side chest pools, not by rewriting the dungeon plugin reward system

5) What this means for progression

• Creature farming now feeds professions much more directly
• Essences are part of normal world progression now
• Cooking, Alchemy, and Jewelcrafting all benefit more from farming specific creature families
• Dungeon chests are now better for bars/material support instead of being overloaded with junk or broken ids

6) Common mistakes

• Farming undead expecting the new essence/material loop
• Ignoring creature family type when hunting for a specific profession mat
• Expecting every legendary chest to be gem-heavy
