Magi P'Tasa incorrect loot table
 

I believe Magi P'tasa loot table is currently incorrect on the server. I know as it is now the Magi can drop the Staff of Elemental Mastery: Fire. Doing research on this item I cannot find a single claim to support that this version of hate 1.5 Magi P'tasa having that item on its loot table. Reading all the comments on http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/n...3&p=1#comments

you can see not a single person comments on getting a staff of elemental mastery: fire from Magi P'tasa until May 21st, 2003. That is 1 week after the newest plane of hate, Plane of hate 2.0 or plane of Hate B, went live. All comments here suggest that prior to that patch if Magi P'tasa is wielding a staff, it is in fact the earth staff.

On this post, http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=6274 ,the one for the actual fire staff, it is discussed as people getting it from Mistress of Scorn loot table in Hate 1.5. Only people that mention getting the Staff of elemental mastery: Fire from Magi P'tasa are AFTER the Plane of Hate B revamp in May of 2003.

I have been reading and researching this as much as I can and it seems other than apothic armor the only epic pieces Magi P'tasa should drop are the Staff of elemental mastery: Earth and more rarely Shattered Emerald of Corruption.

http://eq.magelo.com/npc/415123 is another post with loots from Magi P'tasa although I am unsure how accurate it is.

Anyone else have any other evidence to substantiate this claim?

I believe every mini has the possibility of SEoC and Eye of Inny, which drop on top of their other loot.

Should be:

2 Armor
0-1 Old Inny Loot (specific to each mini)
0-1 SEoC
0-1 Eye of Inny

I suppose it's possible Eye and SEoC share a loot table though.

However I agree with the intent of the thread. Magi should only drop Earth Staff as his Inny loot (other than the Eye/SEoC). While the Mistress of Scorn should have a chance to drop both Fire Staff and Dawnchaser on his Inny loot table.

Based on limited evidence, I feel like the drop rate on Inny's old plunder is a bit low for us (may be bad luck).

I think we've killed probably I'd say 30-40 minis in Hate, of all varieties. We saw 1 Eye off a Lord of Ire, 2 Gardashes off Master of Spite, and 1 Dawnchaser off Mistress of Scorn. I don't believe we have seen anything else drop yet from minis.

The posts from back then suggest minis drop them around a 33-50% chance I'd say. As an example:

Grandmaster - 3 armor loots
High Priest - Inny Hammer
Avatar -
Coercer - Inny Wand
Mistress - Fire Staff
Broodmother - Inny Necro Book

He also claims Eye of Inny off scorn banshee. I'm guessing it was actually from a named listed above and not properly attributed.

But of the named they killed they got 3/6 Inny loot (4/6 if you include the fire staff).

Just as one example.

This one seems quite clear.

Pending update:

-Magi P'tasa can drop earth staff, no longer fire.
-Mistress of Scorn can drop fire staff.

and the mages rejoice

Pras Nilbog and many thanks for the outstanding work the staff does to recreate the best classic EQ experience!

Is the earth staff not currently on his loot table?

By reading this post earth staff was no longer dropping.

When will update be applied so people can complete mage epics again?
