In response to the question about Vox's loot table, or any other loot table for that matter, where you have items that should drop all the time (IE 100%). Using our good friend Lady Vox as an example, her default loot table (from Myra's DB) looks something like this:

DragonVox (Chance: 100% Multiplier: 4)
Item 1 (Chance:30%)
Item 2 (Chance: 40%)
Item 3 (Chance:100%)
etc etc.

What would happen (at least on my server) was the 100% item would only drop almost all the time. Even if I changed the multiplier, only the 100% item would drop. Now, let me say that my loot table contained several 100% items, as Vox always drops certain items every time. And I had my Multiplier set to 6, but I would only get 1 item, the first 100% item. Not sure if thats a bug with the EMU or not, but anyway, my point is this. I was able to fix this pretty easily, I created several other loot tables DragonVoxScale, DragonVoxTome, ect.. Set them to (Chance 100% Multiplier: 1) and put one of the single drop items in each table. Then in the main table, I deleted the 100% drop items, and adjusted the % chance rate on the items to give an even disribution of the remaining items. I then repoped Lady Vox, and bam, loot that mirrored EQ Live.
