Concept behind loottbles (did I get it right)?
 

Just to make sure I understood the loot concept (even if I use tools to add loot, I want to understand how it works):

- Create a new record in lootdrop for the Id. The field 'name' doesn't matter.
- Create new record(s) in lootdrop_entries. Here you put the items you want to drop for this lootdrop.
- Create a new record in loottable. You can set coin-loot for this set. Connects the loottable to lootdrop_entries
- Create new record(s) in loottable_entries. Sets the drop chance of this set. Connects the loottable with a specific npc_type.

1. Is that how it works?
2. What about the table 'global_loot'? If I set the field 'skip_global_loot' to 'false' in the table 'npc_type' and set the field 'loottable_id' in 'npc_type', is both used then?

I'm also interested in this. Is there some kind of guide, wiki or something that provides details as to how loot work?

global loot is global loot. This is a system they added that has conditional application (used for a lot of tradeskills and defiant for example)

To answer the question about global loot, yes. By default all NPCs check global loot tables.

https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob...anager.cpp#L44 I think that explains the rules fairly well. Even if you don't understand C++, it should be pretty easy to understand.
