Not A Bug Miasma Paragon Chests - Feature or Bug?

[Magus Zeal]

In Trueuo git, I see this code


It seems there is an override to allow Miasma to drop chests.

However, Paragon.ChestChance requires that the mobile (m) is a Paragon, which also seems to be overidden to "false".





Feature or Bug?

i got many paragon chests from miasma, but they never spawned as paragon.
Just seemed like a random drop in corpse, i think.
Was a year or two ago.

It is correct. Named mobs that drop chests are considered paragon, but do not get the title or gold hue. This is how it worked on Real UO years ago, and I imagine still does. What is also accurate is how weak the loot is inside the chests, aside from the guaranteed Hoard Tmap.

Dan mentioned that paragon chests no longer drop from named ML mobs on Heritage
