P99 drop table behavior:

Zlandicar always drops 1 of each of the following:

https://wiki.project1999.com/Frakadar%27s_Talisman

https://wiki.project1999.com/Zlandicar%27s_Heart


Zlandicar drops 0-1 items from a table of the following:

https://wiki.project1999.com/Cowl_of_Mortality

https://wiki.project1999.com/Gauntlets_of_Mortality

https://wiki.project1999.com/Cracked_Claw_of_Zlandicar



In addition, Zlandicar can drop 0-1 of the following (separate drop table):

Expected drop table behavior:

Zlandicar always drops 1 of each of the following:


https://wiki.project1999.com/Zlandicar%27s_Talisman

https://wiki.project1999.com/Frakadar%27s_Talisman


Zlandicar should have roughly an 80% chance to drop the following:


https://wiki.project1999.com/Zlandicar%27s_Heart


Zlandicar should guaranteed drop 2 items from the following table (duplicates allowed):


https://wiki.project1999.com/First_Brood_Talisman

https://wiki.project1999.com/Massive_Dragonclaw_Shard

https://wiki.project1999.com/Cowl_of_Mortality

https://wiki.project1999.com/Gauntlets_of_Mortality

https://wiki.project1999.com/Cracked_Claw_of_Zlandicar






Summary of Differences:



First Brood Talisman was not on its own separate table from the other four drops.

Zlandicar's heart does not appear to be a 100% drop rate.

Instead of 0-1 drops from his table, and then 0-1 first brood talisman, he should be dropping any two of any of those five drops, including duplicates. So it should be possible to see two cowls of mortality on a Zlandicar kill.

This is still an issue on P99. Drop rates for raid mobs are pretty wrong across the board. For example, based on evidence, Gore and Sev were near 100% drop rate for scales (should be posted in a separate thread), ST named golems were near 100% drop rate on primals or avatar. Since Wuoshi got fixed, is there hope of getting other mobs fixed?
