Good morning, Have some extra time these days and am working on some collections and some grinding. Is there a list/post somewhere that has basic collection information. Not looking for specifics more along the lines of "this set is ground spawn in general area xxx" or "this set drops from these mobs" just to help some with direction. Thanks.
Your going to have to google a lot of them. The info on them is as scattered as the shineys themselves! This guy started one: https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/complete-collections-list.242930/ I found this post that has some links that might help https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/eok-collectibles-cheat-sheet.237526/ Or you can go to Allah and read the comments under the ach section to see what people say. https://everquest.allakhazam.com/wiki/eq:Collection_System Plus one of the map packs has ground spawn location on them but oddly enough I found more spawns NOT at those points
Agree with your advice. The number of spawn points for collections is so massive that trying to map them would be a huge task and in the end not that useful. I really hope the person responsible for adding those locations has some automated way to do it, because otherwise that'd be a massive amount of time spent configuring a feature that frankly most of the playerbase would be happy to see missing from the next expansion.
