Miscellaneous: Plane of Sky Drops

[Daldaen]

So there are a few sky drops that are dropping on the wrong mobs.

Drop Tables

Spiroc Arbiter/Caller/Expulser: 2001 Link

• Carmine Spiroc Feather -Magelo link
• Dark Spiroc Feather -Magelo link
• Emerald Spiroc Feather -Magelo link
• Mottled Spiroc Feather -Magelo link
• Saffron Spiroc Feather -Magelo link
• White Spiroc Feather -Magelo link
• White-tipped Spiroc Feather -Magelo link

Spiroc Banisher/Revolter/Walker: 2001 Link

• Black Nebulous Sapphire -Magelo link
• Blood Sky Emerald -Magelo link
• Dull Stone -Magelo link
• Finely Woven Cloth Amice -Magelo link
• Mithril Air Ring -Magelo link
• Obsidian Amulet -Magelo link
• Prismatic Sphere -Magelo link
• Spiroc Healing Totem -Magelo link
• Spiroc Peace Totem -Magelo link
• Spiroc Thunder Totem -Magelo link
• Spiroc Wind Totem -Magelo link
• Wilder's Girdle -Magelo link
• Wooden Bands -Magelo link

Currently all 6 types of Spirocs drop all items above. However it should be split into 3 mobs that drop spiroc feathers, and 3 mobs that drop other misc. stuff.

Magelo and 2001 Guide disagree on Banisher and Expulser drop tables. Magelo thinks Expulser should drop feathers and Banisher should drop other stuff. 2001 guide thinks Banisher drops feathers and Expulser drops other stuff.

I'm inclined to trust Magelo more since Sky loot tables haven't been modded much over the years but it's a Nilbog call. Not much difference either way though.

Quests

• All PoSky Quests - Should be MQable.

Mechanics

• Hailing Sirran should keep him alive for an additional minute or two. (90s is safe bet)

I think thats it for now...

in addition to Dald's fine research, here are some other loot problems with Sky Bosses

According to Magelo, the Queen bee is also suppose to drop the Wind Tablet ( War) http://eq.magelo.com/item/20978


Currently the Wind Tablet drops from the Spiroc Lord which always seemed odd because well he also drops the Spiroc Air Totem which is for warrior shoulders. It never made sense he had TWO warrior 'no drop' loots while the Queen Bee never dropped 1

Also speaking of incorrect warrior items dropping from the Spiroc Lord, the Spiroc Wind totem ( droppable piece for the 41% belt) currently drops off the Spiroc Lord

It should not http://eq.magelo.com/item/20977, the totem should only drop off random spirocs and the Guardian which it currently also does

Its a wasted drop on the Spiroc Lord much like the Glowing Sapphire you shown above

Old List (Nilbog patch)

Drops

• Pulsating Ruby (Necromancer-No Drop) - Currently this drops from all bees / bixies. It should only drop from Bazzt Zzzt (boss-6) -- Magelo link
• Glowing Sapphire (Cleric) - Currently drops from Bazzt Zzzt (boss-6), should drop from trash bees but NOT boss -- Magelo link
• Amulet of Woven Hair (Bard-No Drop) - Currently drops from all trash bees / bixies. It should only drop from Bazzt Zzzt (boss-6) - Magelo link
• Nebulous Sapphire (Monk/Enchanter-No Drop) - Currently drops from all bees, should only drop from Sister of the Spire (boss-7) -- Sister of the Spire
• Wind Tablet (Warrior-no drop) - Currently drops off Spiroc Lord (boss-5). It should only drop off Bazzt Zzzt (boss-6) -- Magelo link
• Spiroc Wind Totem (Warrior) - Currently drops off Spiroc Lord (boss-5). It should ONLY drop from trash spirocs -- Magelo link
• Black Nebulous Sapphire (Enchanter) - Currently does not drop. It should drop from trash spirocs -- Magelo link

Quests

• Enchanter Test of Disillusion - Should use Black Nebulous Sapphire instead of Nebulous Sapphire.

yes it seems the war 41% belt is suppose to be even MORE rare with the no drop from the Queen not ol Tucan Sam

[Dentalplan]

Reminds me of something I had been meaning to post - Nebulous Sapphire should not be required for the enchanter earring. It's totally unprecedented that the same boss no drop is used for two different quests in sky. Someone even posted on allakhazam that they tried to complete the enchanter quest with the nebulous saph and it didn't work.

http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=331

Nebulous Sapphire doesn't work for this quest. I attempted to do this quest today and Enderbite wouldn't accept the Nebulous Sapphire, but she did accept the harpy statuette and adamantium earring.

Seems much more likely that Black Nebulous Sapphire was the piece that was needed, but isn't widely known since info on Sky is a little bit lacking in general. It would fit the general pattern for sky quests (no drop from isle boss + droppables from 2 preceding islands), but this piece would need to be added as it doesn't drop on this server at all.

Nice finds!

[Daldaen]

I agree with Dentalplan's research

That quest should use Black Nebulous Sapphire and it should drop from spiroc trash. Updating OP.

Updated post to be more comprehensive about PoSky in general.
