Drop Rates

ffan · 12-30-2006, 08:34 AM

Is it able to add item drop rates to monsters? For a example a goblin to have a chance of 80% dropping a Shield and a chance of 10% of dropping a shield +1?
If yes how?

You can do this for a whole treasure, but I don't know how to do it by creature.
You could do it like this, though: let's say there are four goblins in your combat event, chain a combat treasure event set to happen 80% of time if event happens. This event would have four regular shields. Chain, if event doesn't happen, 10% chance three shileds and one +1 shield, etc.
To make this work properly, edit the monster database so that goblins do not have shields.

Another way to do it, is to have two different goblins, those with regular shields, and those with +1 shields but the same in all other respects. Then you can build chains of combats that have random chances of the two goblins appearing alongside each other in various combinations.

Who knows...I'm learning how to use Dreamweaver (though I can't say that I like it so far) maybe I'll work on the page to learn. Maybe.
