Rare drops[edit]

Is it really necessary to list all gold drops from this chest (or any end chest for that matter)? Or is it sufficient to list the gold drops known to be exclusive to the dungeon? --Wyn's Talk page Wyn 02:39, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

To me, gold drops from chests are like the common drops of monsters; we should probably only focus on the drops that drop exclusively from said chest. I'd support removing the "universal" drops. --User Wandering Traveler Sig2.png Wandering Traveler 02:42, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
I agree, unique drops t each chest deserve to be documented but universal drops do not. Otherwise were just gonna get an awful lot of links to certain chests. I do however think a wee note on each chest of this type should probably be added informing peeps that it drops an array of variable golds as well as the unique golds it contains. Just so new peeps to the game know that they could get any number of things. I think also a wee note as to whats exempt from dropping in the chests might be an idea too, for example no chest in EOTN drops zodiac or celestial weapons, however the FoW and UW chests drop celestial weapons and the Urgoz and Deep chests drop Zodiac weapons. -- Salome User salome sig2.png 03:02, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
I, too concur. If we were to continue this, it would quickly spiral out of control, creating much unnecessary mess and vastly increasing the length of pages, while adding no real value. This issue is directly comparable to that of common drops from monsters, and should be treated as such. Lord Belar 03:37, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
I would have to say that list ing every single gold drop does seem a little crazy. Sure it is nice to have the info, but I have to agree with Lord Belar that it could spiral out of control... Amazing Steve User amazing steve - Sig.JPG 05:27, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
Agreed with listing exclusives (or items that only drop from 2 or 3 chests, for that matter, if there are any such things) only. WhyUser talk:Why Are We Fighting 17:27, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
On second thought, I think both unique drops and exceptionally rare items such as the Voltaic Spear (which technically is not a unique drop from this chest) should be listed. Not the common drops you can get in many other places. WhyUser talk:Why Are We Fighting 18:17, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
I'd have to agree with this, even if I am one of the people who have been adding to the long list of drops :P. On why's note (Above) Yea, keep VS on there :P But delete alot of the unneeded items.--Amethyst Aegis.pngExalted Amethyst 12:32, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
On the other hand, providing research on common rare drops may help one to (vaguely) determine the probability of receiving a desired drop from the chest. If we are to stop listing all rare drops from the chest on the drop research section, shall we continue to have drop research sections for specific items? --Threid Threid's talk page 23:50, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Edit links[edit]

Are piled up. Template issue? - J.P.User J.P. sigicon.pngTalk 19:00, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

It's bizarre that the image placed under the infobox forces the links to pile up between the two :S - J.P.User J.P. sigicon.pngTalk 07:19, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

Equine Aegis[edit]

Most of the weapons on the list drop from multiple locations, it never claimed that those items would be unique to the chest. Since Equine Aegis only seems to drop from dungeon chests, Spectral Vaettirs and Glint's Challenge (aka it doesn't drop from just about any creeper you see running around in EotN), I'd say it fits the criteria as much as any other item on that list. Jeree95 (talk) 18:35, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

Going off of Talk:Equine Aegis#Drop research, it seems that it can even drop from Locked Chests. I'm all for "useful" information over strict rules of what goes where. I do not know how common of a drop this item is outside of dungeons, nor how sought after this shield is.
If you feel the average user of the wiki would want to know that the Chest of the Slaver can give them an Equine Shield, let me know and I'll revert myself, again. I don't mind doing circles. G R E E N E R 00:47, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
I don't know if an average wiki user would appreciate that knowledge, but maybe we should instead clear some other equally useless entries from that list? I don't see Platinum Wand/Staff, Aureate Longbow and Tempest Staff being too different from Equine Aegis in terms of rarity or how sought after or hard to obtain they are. I'm pretty sure Equine Aegis is less common than those four weapons anyway. Jeree95 (talk) 17:32, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
plat wand and staff don't drop from regular monsters insc like the equine aegis does, but I agree for aureate longbow 69.178.112.95 03:13, 28 March 2017 (UTC)
My threshold for the Equine Aegis was the Locked Chests. I am honestly too far removed from the actual game to make judgments beyond those (i.e. I still remember what Locked Chests are). If you folks feel that the list is too inclusive, then removal with a reason is more than allowable - that's how wikis work. G R E E N E R 08:20, 28 March 2017 (UTC)
According to drop research on their respective pages, Platinum Staff and Wand do drop from regular monsters, in addition to seemingly dropping from every single dungeon chest I ever open. They seem by far more common than Equine Aegis, and drop from locked chests and mobs as much as it does. I'll go ahead and remove those items from the list, if someone has objections we can discuss it here (but please let's not start a revert war over this). Jeree95 (talk) 16:40, 28 March 2017 (UTC)
