Collectable farming

'''This page is a work in progress which aims at listing the source of all collectables in the game. Feel free to contribute by adding your own finds.'''

Overview
Collectibles are found either in "Treasure Bags" dropped by creatures you kill or from the various collectible spots you find in the game.

Some of the items are more common than others. Items that require a turn in of 3 are "Common", a turn in of 2 are "Uncommon", and a turn in of 1 are "Rare". You can refer back to the collectibles page to find the list of the number required of each type and thus the rarity of any particular item.

Creature Drops
Creatures seem to drop the same type regardless of their level. I have received prayer beads from level 1 and level 14 troglodytes for instance. They have to be of the correct type though as seen by examining them. The troglodytes in The Shroud are not the subclass reptile so do not drop the collectibles.

Treasure Bags dropped by creatures can be looted by every member of the party, but will seemingly "disappear" for each individual character when "picked up".

Drop Point Objects
It is suspected that the location of the adventure determines which tier of similar collectibles you receive. Difficulty setting for adventures doesn't matter.

Piles of Rubble and Adventure Packs can have any of the collectibles from the level range of the quest.


 * Adventurer's Pack (can drop anything)
 * Alchemy Table
 * Bookshelf
 * Cabinet
 * Crude Altar
 * Mushroom
 * Moss
 * Rubble (can drop anything)

Also note that, some of these objects can only be searched by one person per instance.
