Game Mechanics: Lyendlln's Lute

[Vsai]

It does appear that Lyendlln's Lute was in era for our timeline.

Feb 21st 2001 puts it 2 months after Velious launch date so it is not from the revamp.

bumping for visibility - need more droppable lutes!

[nilbog]

This item already has the chance to drop.

[Vsai]

There must be a bug somewhere then. This is a fairly common tradable lute that has never been seen on the forums here or sales history ever. The big SG farmers have never seen it I checked with them before posting. Something is up. Only mentions of it at all are threads bug reporting it, asking if it exists, and one WTB thread(if it does exist).

[nilbog]

Got a chance to look into this further; you are correct. The item can drop, yes, but the npc that can drop it does not spawn - Mistress Latazura.

I believe this is part of a missing sirens grotto revamp that needs more discussion and research.

Dec 2000, Velious launch

FEBRUARY 2, 2001

Update: We also made several changes to Siren's Grotto to address player concerns with the difficulty of the zone

from JUNE 27, 2001

Sirens Grotto has been changed a bit. It should be a more interesting zone now.

She spawned for us twice...once right after the other. She dropped the bard lute both times. Once she dropped the 60th Wizzie Ice Spear spell. We had three groups 50+, heavily weighted 55+. She was cake for us. Our 60th SK puller was awesome and broke a very difficult room that she spawned in.

We killed her some days ago, one group of level 60's.
Shaman (me), chanter, warrior, rogue, cleric, and druid.
She droped a bow, cant remember name since the war got it, it has something like 175 or 180 range, and a proc, a nice bow for sure.

We had this drop the other day from Mistress Latazyra (Mistress PMS) She also dropped a runed sea shell (EB) which is used for the 7th shawl quest, and a quest gem for INT caster robe. She also dropped a black sapphire I believe.

We had 3 groups to drop her and we lost a total of 2 I think from the battle, 1 was the 59 Enc that tash'd her (dead instantly Go Adjani! =P) and I think a ranger. The battle lasted awhile because she cast Forlorn Deeds on most of the melee and that can put a damper on your plans. All total we lost about 4-5 because no one was able to stun at the end and she gated and brought back all her castle friends (2 sirens 1 icy servent and 1 watery servent).

A magic resist based snare is quite crappy [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] If you are a ranger, go ahead and get the bow from gleed instead (it procs a 81pt DD, great for bow kiting and can be quested for, or you can camp gleed for it). Rangers need bows that proc DD's or other extra damage spells, not something that procs a crappy snare [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I could see this bow being useful for a soloing warrior - or more than likely, being worn for the resistances on it. Other than that its really a toy. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I don't know, but 170 range is good. The veluim recurves coming out of DN are like 30 37 100/150 range and are tradeable. This is a nice bow. Sounds like a snare/root proc to me.

This should also be a trash drop. As for the date the item picture upload was handled the same day as all of the other sg loot we currently see. Both horns both drums ect. Date is February so it would not be from the revamp.

[Vsai]

Sol invictus of bristlebane was the source for all the original sg loot images on allakazams file servers. They were all uploaded in the first 7 weeks of velious. Mistress doesn't appear to be in game when lute was dropping and no mention on the names ever dropping it that were in game at launch so it must have been a siren trash drop.

[Vsai]

Looks like trash didnt drop it as of sept 2001, loot tables were posted in illia's npc entries. Mistress should be in game and dropping lute as her common drop. She had some sort of a rapid respawn mechanic which would explain why I saw archived sales entries in the 100-150pp range. Mistress should be in game. Nilbog is right this is part of a much larger revamped-sg conversation. Mistress looks like she was in game May 10th(earliest entry I found). While lute was definitely dropping from something else until that point I see no mention of what it was. Since we are past that point in the timeline it appears adding Mistress is the fix.
