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.) During the Old Ghosts update tier 7 loot was expanded to creatures that also drop Pristine Mana Shards. The stat ranges were also adjusted for some items including weapons and covenant armor that drop in the Mana Forge chests.
The tier a particular creature or chest belongs to has to be inferred by what it drops. 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 Restless Spirits are example exceptions, being 135 and Tier 5).
In addition to the tier, there are loot mutators (called profiles)[1][2] that also influence what drops on particular creatures. There is very little information regarding the nature these profiles but they influence the type of materials (salvage), type of armor/weapons, type of items (dinnerware, etc), and quality or number of spells and modifier range. A practical effect of these profiles is that even though two creatures might share the same loot tier, they may differ quite radically in the loot they drop. The only known mutator is the Quality Flag profile that affects loot dropped on Vissidal Island.[3]
Historical Notes:
- 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.

Weapons
In Master of Arms in Feb 2012 the entire Weapon system in Asheron's Call was revamped. Max weapon stats previous to this update are preserved for historical purposes and can be viewed here.
Due to the high number of edits required to complete this information for current weapons, weapon stat information can be viewed/entered here. Please make all updates to that page, once it is reasonably complete it will be moved to this location on the main Loot page again. The reason for this has to do with this page's size and how that interacts with database size with each additional edit.
