The Horseman's Reins

[Bollwerk]

Way back in my Everquest days, I was really fascinated by a program called ShowEQ (never used it, did not want to risk my accounts being banned).

From screenshots and posts, you would have a window which would show every mob in the zone, their position, health, mana, loot etc.

I also remember a screenshot of Sony having putting in non-interactive mobs, named ShowEQUsersSuck. Pretty funny stuff.



Chances are good, the loot table is set at the time the mob spawns.

I actually used ShowEQ for a few months. Never got banned, but probably got lucky. Unfortunately, you could only see the mob's loot if it was a handheld item. No other loot showed up. But it was useful for hunting rare spawns.

You used it after Sony changed their loot table generations :P Mobs used to spawn with their loot already on them, but after everyone and their mom
started running showEQ they made it so the loot was generated on death.
