Other mods
- Elite Creatures Reborn (optional): these creatures roll stars and mutations, and its
elite spawn <prefab> <stars>takes these prefabs. - EliteCrafting (optional): every creature here drops its runes and magic gear, the bosses more (below). The bone weapons, the Bone Crossbow and the Executioner's Greataxe are item level 2 (Black Forest) and the Kraken shield level 4, so they roll inscriptions like the game's gear of those biomes.
- Epic Loot: add an
ECP_CryptMimicentry to its loot tables to give mimics magic items. - Loot mods, spawn mods and other mods' ships work with these creatures.
With EliteCrafting
Runes and magic gear come on top of each creature's own loot. Boss magic items roll Rare more often, as from the game's bosses: 70% at level 2, 85% at level 4.
| Creature | Level | Drops |
|---|---|---|
| Kraken | 4 (Ocean) | Every kill: 3 runes, 1 magic item and a Serpent Rune |
| Rime Giant | 4 (Mountain) | Every kill: 3 runes and 1 magic item; 50%: a Consecrated Rune |
| Crypt Executioner | 2 (Black Forest) | Every kill: 2 runes and 1 magic item; 25%: an Ascension Rune |
| Its raised skeletons | - | Nothing |
| Crypt Mimic | The crypt's: 2 burial chamber, 3 sunken crypt | A crypt chest's odds: 30% a rune and 10% a magic item (36% and 12% in a sunken crypt) |
| Greydwarf Slinger, arsenal skeletons, Skeleton Crossbowman | 2 (Black Forest) | A Black Forest creature's odds: 5% a rune, 1.25% a magic item |
A server's EliteCrafting files can change any of these by prefab name. ecraft tiers lists the bone weapons' levels.
