#352, "Limited"


          

Does Limited gear have a chance of respawning if it hasn't spawned the previous 2 times you killed a mob?

That is possible, yes.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

But only if one of the circulated limited items goes poof?

or is there a remote chance to load over the limit?

Zulg is making fun of you
You asked about limited gear, not overmaxed.
Thus the answer is yes.

Please stop being vague.

Can gear ever respawn when it's maxxed out?

We have two cases:
1. Item not maxed out
2. Item maxed out

if(case == 1)
{
Sure, item can respawn on the mob;
}
else
{
Tough luck, try again later;
}

My first response was only as vague as the questoin asked.

>Can gear ever respawn when it's maxxed out?

This is a different question than the first you asked. The answer to this one is no.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

AFAIK gear won't respond when it is maxed out. However, if you kill the same mob 2 times, there isn't any guarantee that the next time you kill it, the item you are looking for won't be on it.

Without seeing the codebase, I have to assume two things control normally (I believe there are some tweaks for barrier wands and the like) limitted gear being maxed out. That being, number of items in circulation and number of active p-files. Either of those factors could change at any point in the game.

Do items in circulation refer to the number of items in all the pfiles, or just the items on the characters that are logged on?

Recently, the few things I've learned how to get all seem to be not loading, so I'm wondering if the limitation is what is logged onto the game or the total number out there in nondeleted character files.
