Regarding the treasure camps, if a particular camp is good for multiple things (such as one that drops junk to vendor) but also has the potential to drop items to sell to players, how should it be listed? multiple places? only one?

I'd be curious to hear which camp this is. In general I'd lean towards just putting the entry in the items area. Almost every mob in that area also drops small loot of some value, but that's not usually worth mentioning.

However, if a single camp/area has both "named" mobs that drop valuable loot AND those mobs drop a lot of Fine Steel weapons or whatever, I could see listing it in both places.

Personally the only example I can think of this off the top of my head would be Droga. Camps like Soothsayer Dregzak (Earring of Essence) also involve killing lots of not-named goblins, and they drop lots of Fine Steel and goblin armor.

Currently the wiki only has the named part as an entry. But I could see either A) adding a note to all the Droga named camps saying something like "and fine steel weapons and goblin armor also drop; they sell well to vendors" ... or B) adding a single entry for all of Droga under the "Coin/Trash Item Camps (to be sold to vendors)" section.

Ultimately it's up to you as a wiki-editor to decide [You must be logged in to view images.
