Loot

Related topics: Quality Flag

General

Loot dropped by creatures and found in chests in Asheron's Call is largely random, however there are seven tiers that describe the possible range of item values. Each creature type or chest will only drop loot within its tier's range. The 7th tier was introduced as part of the 100th update Ancient Powers. (Technically there are eight, Tier 0 creatures drop no loot, such as many Elementals and some quest creatures.)

The tier a particular creature or chest belongs to has to be inferred by what it drops and because of overlap between tiers it can takes several pulls/drops to correctly determine the tier. Tier levels are shown in the creature stats tables, for example Drudge or Shadows. Tiers are generally tied into monster level, for example wealth 6 loot appears on almost all creatures level 135 or higher (Grave Rats and Lost Souls are example exceptions, being 135 and Tier 5).

In addition to the tier, there are loot mutators that also influence what drops on particular creatures. There is very little information regarding the nature or number of these mutators but they influence the type of materials (salvage), type of armor/weapons, and quality or number of spells and modifier range. The only known mutator is the Quality Flag mutator that affects loot dropped on Vissidal Island.

Historical Note: Loot tiers are also referred to as 'Wealth'; thus the best treasure in the game is in Wealth 7. The newer development team seems to prefer Loot Tier; in Srand's day it was Wealth.
