You're right there on the first option - it has a chance to drop 1 of everything in the loot table if you set the chance column in the db to that. I've been messing around with this, along with Trumpcard's code on my server, have tweaked several kinds of gnolls in blackburrow right now. Hop in if you wanna see what I've done with it, but basically I just put a higher number in chance for those things I wanted them to drop more regularly - such as gnoll fur and fangs, and lower chances on things like weapons and hq pelts, etc. I completely nixed the "build your own gnoll" parts - ulna, jawbone, fingers, etc... just coz I dont like those parts personally. Is gonna be a big project to tweak, but I'm having fun slaying lots of gnolls to check my changes. :P
Every now and again I'll luck out and get 3 weapons and a fang or something, but I write it off to luck of the n00bie - seeing as how its hard to play EQ on a server without an existing economy. Makes it that much harder to build your character up since you cant summon or buy all your l33t armor on my server :P
