Miscellaneous: Trak Loot Table

Shiftin · #1 05-16-2011, 10:56 AM

For the first month or so Trak was being killed on Live, he dropped Ton Po's Bo Stick of Understanding (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=586)

We've gotten every other trak drop now, and quite a few duplicates, but have yet to see this. Just want to confirm that it's on his loot table and we've just been unlucky as opposed to it being omitted.

Note: a month worth of 7 day trakanons is not the same as a month worth of correct 3 day trakanons.

Ton Po's bo stick never dropped on live. It only dropped during Kunark beta/test server. It was removed from his loot table before Kunark went live.

I had one on live.

Of course, I won it at the casino they implemented in Shadowhaven.

Way to ramp up your credibility for that whole trak = 3 day spawn thing [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

In hours and hours of research nothing ever pointed to 7 day trak. I have every expectation that when the devs feel he's tuned properly and VP is ready, he'll go to his proper spawn timer.

EDIT: I didn't read the whole thread - obviously shiftin already mentioned this - just thought I would share was well. Regardless - sick fucking weapon~

That didn't match what I remembered so I dug around a bit.

That thread on monkly business was the best source I could find. I was unable to find any reliable source of anyone aside from the Jojo mentioned in that thread having on one live, and even Jojo's was from a GM event on Legends server (which is kind of like quasi-live imo).

I wasn't sure what the plan was for this weapon, but just thought I would submit my findings. Hope this helps!

A message sent to numerous Devs back last fall/winter.

To my knowledge, none aside from the one owned by Jojo ever existed on live prior to casinos. Obviously one has dropped and it couldn't have gone to a better person - but to say one dropped on live is to my knowledge incorrect. If anyone has concrete evidence beyond "I knew a guy who was in a guild with a guy whose friend's brother had one because he was in afterlife/triton/foh/township/conquest/invirtue/whatever but I can't remember his name or any real details" I'd be interested to see just to know. But yea, it really doesn't matter at this point, but just for accuracy I thought I would share.
