NPC- Yaka Razorhoof -- Loottable- 16454
NPC- a rat -- Loottable- 1055
2 NPCs found.
or if it doesn't currently drop in game...
Item 12345 drops:
0 NPCs found. 0 Loottables found.
Imagine how incredible this would be when world building in game. You can browse items and see if they are already dropping, or not, or where and off of who.
I mean it would make things so much more pleasant...
Thoughts?
Anyone a hell of a lot btter than me with C++ want to take a stab at this?
Thanks for reading.

Yeah its an excellent idea, but that command would put one hell of a load on the server =S.
You see that would be a reverse lookup forcing the server to check every record it has for that item across every zone (as most searches and queries are just within a zone).
And if you are talking about just pulling that from the database, thats another potentially huge querey.
Great concept, and yes it would REALLY help in world building, but I wouldn't recommend using that kind of command on a live server or allowing too many people to use it.
