Talk:Conditional Drops

Hellion's just edited in "Some monsters will drop only 1 out of a set of possible items at a time, such as the swarm of fire ants dropping their familiar equipment[...]". But that contradicts the note on the ant page "More than one of the tools can drop at the same time". So which is wrong? --Club (#66669) (Talk) 00:32, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

• Since Hellion is a dev, I would lean towards the note on the monster page being wrong. Either an early bug, or people not distingushing between various pickpocket mechanics (or failing to count). At some point I can head over to the desert and re-spade the ants, but not for a few days. --Flargen 00:38, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm not so sure about some of the info on this page. For instance, the conditional in the sea isn't there just to prevent yoinking. It's there because they needed the conditional effects of pressure and it's countermeasures. (Heard on the radio...)

It also seems confusing to call pick-pocket only items conditional drops. --Starwed 00:39, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
