When I set up my CLAw loot rules this is what I came up with and I also use this for evaluating loot from treasure chest. I turn CLAw off when I open the chest so that it doesn't bring a bunch of spawn I'm not ready for out of the chest. Throw everything from the chest into a bagball in my back pack and then sort through it with the CLAw into my loot bag later after I'm safe. Usually I can get everything from the chest into the bagball if I use the BOS to get the gold in the bank.
Any armor over 55 total resist I loot to enhance with my crafter.
LRC med armor with 16+ and resist over 40 gets enhanced as well.
LRC non med armor needs to be 16+ and have resist in the upper 40's.
Mana Regeneration I look for anything with 2 MR on it and loot that.
I try to enhance anything that has at least 70 luck on it. If it is a ring or bracelet I look for luck higher than 85 since it can't be enhanced. A piece of jewelry with high luck and other desirable attributes can be very valuable.
Damage Increase I look for over 40. I think the max is 50.
Another thing I look for is spell channeling weapons with some luck on them. Very rarely I see a SC weapon without the -FC penalty with luck.....I tremble every time I blow one of them up trying to enhance it. And I've blown every single one I've found to smithereens.
Some weapons will have spell damage that they hit. I look for lightning or fireball above 30% for selling to PVPers.
For weapons that have Life or Mana leech I look for numbers in the 40+ range if there is only one attribute and if the weapon has both I am looking for one of them to be in the high 30's or both in the mid 20s and up.
If I get a super slayer I keep it and I will occasionally keep an Ogre or Dragon Slayer weapon as well.
Swing Speed Increase is desirable on fast weapons and only moderately desirable on slower weapons.
My favorite bow for training Archery is a 50% SSI repeating crossbow.
Defense Chance Increase is good on dexxer jewelry to help keep them alive. So I look for numbers above the 17-18 range.
Faster Casting with Faster Casting Recovery is desirable in the 1/3 range or the 1/2 if there is another caster stat like spell damage increase or lower mana cost.
Hit Chance Increase over 12 when it is also on the ring with DCI can be valuable.
Skill Bonuses are only really useful for a few skills. Anything that is a pain to raise such as Animal Taming or Provocation can be really nice since not everyone spends the time to raise those skills. Or if it combines some skills that a template might use. Like Musicianship with Provocation or Peacemaking etc.
I loot Gold, Gems, Bandages, Treasure Maps and reagents with CLAw.
In addition to these I have the CLAw looting all Magery, Necro, and Spellweaving scrolls.
What am I forgetting? Am I missing something that is high end and not realizing it with these guidelines?
I am hoping to someday be granted "Elite" status so I can get my grubby little paws on the rules for combining attributes for looting.
Perhaps we can get a list going of what to watch out for and it will help others set up their loot list as well.
