hiya! Sorry, unrelated question, been getting back into EQ1 lately after about 12 years off (LOL)
I've come across a few mobs that arent in the bestiary here, and really enjoy discovering new dialogues and quests... who/where/how should i submit my findings to allakhazam? ( like the good old days I used to post as user "Arctura" but I cant remember my login so, made a new one.)
do you guys still have an app i can install that will monitor my logs and submit things automatically? (or was that just a rumor?)
thanks!
Hey, I'd be interested in hearing about such things since I haven't run across a mob not listed here in a long time. For starters why not make a forum post about any you find? This conveys the info and eventually I'm sure it will get added to the website's content by an admin.
I just added a new mob to Crypt of Decay (The Broken Mirror Version) today... there is less than a dozen known NPC for that zone atm, so there is clearly some info to be gathered and inputted.
You've found a new mob? Please do the following:
1. Post under the zone you found it in. When they were adding new NPC with hotzones a few years ago this is how people let us know there was a new critter in Chardok, Sebilis, etc.
That's all you need to do. Eventually (hopefully quickly, but can't promise that) it will get added to the database.
2. IF the new (or previously undocumented) NPC drops something... well then you could also list it under the item(s) it dropped. Be sure to include the specific zone though, as the dev team has been using the same NPC names in multiple zones and instances based off of zones the last few expansions (about a month ago I had to add a bunch of new NPC to an old instance from about 3 expacs ago that must not have been popular. The new NPC were already in the database in several other zones, just not the one instance population).
As far as automatic submission goes... you are talking about the item collector called Lucy. I think it is presently broken (since I have seen no submitted items or item updates in weeks)... if a mass of people could present this issue on the site feedback forum maybe it would be addressed. Unfortunately patches often break it and The Broken Mirror expac has been particularly patchy.
Welcome back to the game!
