This should answer the question to this.

What I making it so that once you get a weapon, you keep that weapon for the duration of the game. Instead of upgrading to new weapons, your weapon levels up along with you. My first thought is that I can use evolving items to accomplish this design goal. If not, I will probably create AAs that you can gain at particular levels that when activated deletes your current weapon and gives you the new level of that weapon.

client:SendItemScale(Lua_ItemInst inst); -- void

scales the item based off of what ever you have the inst set to... might want to go look at item scaling in general...

On EQ Live, they have hunter and slaughter achievements that automatically track things like number of skeletons killed, and give you a reward when you hit a certain number. If that system is implemented in EQemu, I want to use it to further evolve the player's weapon. The idea is that if you kill 100 skeletons/ghosts/zombies, you get an achievement that adds +5 Undead Bane Damage to your weapon. It doesn't change the sword, but rather gives you the new weapon that has +5 Undead Bane Damage on it.

mob:GetRace(); -- int

this will get the race id

mob:SetGlobal(const char *varname, const char *newvalue, int options, const char *duration); -- void
mob:SetGlobal(const char *varname, const char *newvalue, int options, const char *duration, Lua_Mob other); -- void
mob:TarGlobal(const char *varname, const char *value, const char *duration, int npc_id, int char_id, int zone_id); -- void

or
Data-Buckets
to store the counter

for the +bane damage... augment and set its scale?
