It's balance change time, and I have to update half the weapons on the wiki by hand again...

(I am in pain.)

Behold the swansong of my Cannith Monster Manual: the Monster Manual Tracker! A new tool for people restarting the farming process on a new server (and anyone who didn't find finishing the Slayer objectives of the Manuals enough of a challenge.)

Final score on Cannith: 4407 of the currently possible 4418 Monster Manual entries. Not bad for six years' work.

Ran Sleeping with the Fishes 22 times today and still didn't find the optional chest I was looking for, how's everyone else's Friday going?

It's Myth Drannor time! I got a headstart on photography for this one during the Lamannia preview, but the wilderness rares await...

The DDO Wiki is undergoing maintenance, and may be unavailable over the next couple of days. Please see this thread for more information.

As to the Baba being a low spawn rate, I have been trying to get it for a long time now (Think years) and had resorted to popping in checking and recalling sessions of anywhere up to 100-200 times per session (yes very boring). At a low estimate I have 5k+ times that I checked. (As a note I am still missing 1 Rare Encounter: The Knight's Fall on Heroic.) I still have the Epics to work on.

Just fyi, I noticed the two weapon fighting page needs updating for inclusion of dragonlord enhancements.

Thank you @Flimsy Firewood for fixing the Storm Horns rare encounter list! One of the wiki's longest-running mysteries can finally be put to rest.

After several hours of work, I have finally topped off my Monsters Most Wanted list with the most difficult photograph I've ever taken - the Greater Storm Fury!

This one only spawns in Riding the Storm Out... on Elite difficulty and above... on the platform of the final boss fight, and nowhere else.

I'd like to thank Drafian, Lrrrgh, Saekee, Kummerbund, Sarvinainen and Cardostar/Nightwisher-1, all of Cannith, for getting me into a position where I could photograph one, and also Daamonz, Fingerwaggle, Woodyheart and one user whose name I can't remember, who weren't on the critical run but were still willing to help out.

I've finished writing my guide to completing the Monster Manual - have a look it at here!

To the section of the dev team behind the U62 weapon dice revamp:

While I appreciate the push towards proper standardisation, I would just like it to be known that the changes to weapon base dice in Wednesday's update meant I had to update over 2,000 of the wiki's weapon profiles by hand.

Purely for this reason, I now consider U62 to be DDO's worst update of all time.

Beginning work on the Vecna Unleashed monsters now!

Working on wiki data for the ninth Monster Manual!

Dervinyre's Tail obtained! Thanks to Cyberdinex and Mobetah of Cannith.
