Miscellaneous: Kunark spell drops, some things in Howling Stones, and some Mechanics

[Mac Drettj]

Nice

I do remember Skyfire being the "common knowledge" place to go for kunark spells.

Bump.

Mobs which are mid 40-50 that drop spells currently are correctly dropping 51-54 spells.

Mobs of level 51+ (who summon) in Kunark who currently drop 51-54 spells should instead be dropping level 51-57 Spells. A list of these mobs:

Sebilis Trash 51+
Chardok Trash 51+
Skyfire Trash 51+
Howling Stones Trash 51+
Black Reavers (CoM)
**Gullerback / Nezekezena / Azdalin / Phurzikon (BW)

**These mobs arent all 51 but they are regularly listed as droppers of 51-55 spells.

Currently on P99, it seems that a mob needs to be level 53-55+ to drop level 55-57 spells, this should not be the case.

Bump. Velious is out. Kunark is slain less. Having classic spell drops where 55-57s drop from more frequented areas like they did during classic would be awesome.

Bump.

Bump. Velious is soon. This means players will be EXPing less in Kunark zones and therefore getting less Kunark spells to drop.

Could we maybe try to implement the updated list of mobs capable of dropping 55-57 spells according to the bug posts here so that getting Kunark spells at that point is a little less painful?

I can tell you that I put considerable effort into making sure the skyfire cycles were correct, and that they do reliably drop spells from the 56-59 list. It's actually a little easier here because the area is not as crowded as it should be.

[derpcake]

this always bugged me, somehow first time i see thread

for a player that raided classic and did the upper tier kunark zones in classic, this is very obvious

/shrug, bane of nife costs about as much on red as a fungi, while torpor and the likes can be found for under 15k, 10k really .. if anyone thinks torpor was cheaper or less rare then bane of nife in classic, welp ..

further, they should not drop 59 spells, as they are too low in level, obviously:

Spell Drops: The Named Cycles drop a number of 50+ spells, not including level 59 and 60 spells. One significant missing spell, however, is Regrowth of the Grove.

yep, 2001

[indiscriminate_hater]

minor correction to above: nez is 51 and some gullerbacks are 51
