Game Mechanics: Shawl of Protection seems common from draco

[Nirgon]

In my experience killing him on live this was his rarest drop. We only ever got 1 in Velious. It seemed like tstaff rarity per draco.

Second opinions and prof welcome.

None have dropped on Blue. You may just be getting lucky.

[Freakish]

Yeah, RNG. There is another thread on this same page about warder drop rates in ST. You guys on red are unlucky there while on blue we have been fortunate to get a bunch of SoD, tink masks etc. Whereas on blue we are suffering with staff of widdershins and bone razors being common off draco. It's just random.

Is it confirmed Draco still dropped his old table after upgrade or did they just grab the loot list from Allakhazam that never bothered removing the old drops from the page?

[Daldaen]

PoFear revamp in 2001 was the last time Draco has been modified as far as I'm aware:

http://eq.magelo.com/npc/98297/a-dracoliche

Grotesque Girdle - 28% - (31/107)
Fearsome Shield - 28% - (30/107)
Zombie Flesh Bracer - 27% - (28/107)
Berserker's Ring - 19% - (21/107)
Crimson Robe of the Alendine - 16% - (18/107)
Bone Clasped Girdle - 4% - (5/107)
Spined Dragon Claws - 3% - (4/107)
Monsoon, Sword - 2% - (3/107)
Widdershin - 1% - (2/107)
Staff of Undead Legions - 1% -(2/107)

Shawl of Protection - <1% - (1/107)

So on live those crappy old Draco items kept dropping, yes. But based on the Allakhazam posts there's 1 guy talking about getting a Bone Razor from a fear raid and what to sell it for, and 1 guy asking price on Widdershins. I don't think either state outright it dropped from Draco, though they're posting on the Draco page.

Every other post talks about girdle, ring, shield, bracers, or robe rotting. 1 mention of shawl dropping. No mentions of undead staff, monsoon, class, or BCG (though Girdle may be either girdle).

false. Akashx is wearing one.

[Man0warr]

Damn 1%, seems way more common than that for sure. 100 kills is a pretty good sample size.

[Colgate]

we've gotten 4, including a double shawl drop

either insanely lucky or fucked up drop rate

[Daldaen]

Sounds like you've had some incredible luck. I wasn't aware of a single one having dropped on Blue. I guess I was wrong and 1 dropped out of the what... 15-20 Dracos with 2 loot each time.

I think we've seen... 1 Shield, 3 Grotesque Girdles, 1 BCG, and like 6 crap items out of 5 Dracos?

[Colgate]

we've gotten 4 shawls, 2 or 3 grotesque girdles, 2 shields, 1 bracer, 1 bcg, 3 or 4 rings, and a few shit items like robes and bone razors
