New loot system

[thepoetwarrior]

After about 1/2 day of testing, players report loot is working 99.9% as before. Really hard to find anything 'not intended' drop rates now.

Thanks eqemu team!

The PEQ DB with Magelo's loot/merchants merged in for OoW to VoA (RoF is not on Magelo yet) is now up on PEQ SVN: https://code.google.com/p/projecteqdb/downloads/list

In addition, since Derision updated EQExtractor to work with the newest patch, Robregen got collects for all the RoF zones. They are in this DB as well. Of course, they cannot be played yet as we don't have a compatible client, but the f2p Steam client is being worked on currently

We are missing factions and the NPCs all need a mass stat update, but realistically there is nothing stopping folks from playing in the newer zones up to what UF supports. There isn't any quests or events of course, but you can certainly run around, kill things, and collect loot now.
