The DropTable templates should be used to exhaustively describe drops. Drops is a loose term: they can include merchant stock, container contents, and, of course, the stuff you get from killing somebody. Drops are fixed but with some variance. They can depend on the player's level as well. The game files are the most thorough source of information, particularly `TreasureTable.txt`, though some drops are specified in level files and others in Character files. For example, Auntie Ethel can sell a Potion of Invisibility but this is not listed in the `DEN_Ethel` drop table.

Usage

{{Template:Drop table start}}

This template starts a table.

{{Drop table start|caption=An optional caption to head the table.|skip_chance=If non-empty will hide the Chance column.}}

{{Template:Drop table row}}

The meat and potatoes of a drop table, each invocation of this template adds an item row to the drop table. If an icon or icon_override is specified, that icon is used. Otherwise, the icon is automatically fetched and included, if one exists.

{{Drop table row
|item=The page name of the item. No square brackets required.
|quantity=How many of the item is dropped. It can be a range (e.g. 3 - 5) or a set of possibilities (1;3;5).
|rarity=The weight of the item in the drop table, specified as a fraction. Write "Always" for guaranteed drops.
|icon=(optional) An image without the File: prefix. If provided, overrides the automatic Cargo icon.
|rarity_override=(optional) If icon is specified, will set the rarity.
|note=(optional) A note to add on the item link. It will be inserted as-is, so use the <ref> tag.
|skip_chance=If non-empty will hide the Chance column.
|alias=(optional) If specified, will rename the item link to this.
}}
