:::: While monsters that appear in more than one zone do have different loot tables, they're not dramatically different. Usually, if the mob drops Ingredients and Equipment, the Equipment changes if the monster is in a zone outside of the equipment level range.[[Deinonychus]] are a good example. Their ingredient loot drops are identical in every zone, but their equipment differs. At lower levels, they drop jewelry like {{Item|Amulet of Max Armor +20}}, but {{Item|Amulet of Max Armor +50}} in higher level zones. (A few types of non-equipment items can also change by zone, like scrolls, coin purses, and research ingredients).
:::: I would advise <b>not</b> turning mobs into disambiguation pages. The wiki would end up with 9+ nearly-identical pages for some monsters, and 2-4 pages for most monsters. Disambiguating mobs by zone would also interfere with existing dpl tables across the wiki. I support Alleryn's suggestion of a section for general loot + separate sections for each zone (Plus this system already exists on a handful of pages). If necessary, loot information could be transferred to sub-pages and transcluded back to their parent page. This will likely have to happen for easier implementation of json-generated lists anyways.

:::::Sounds good BetaNotus, I'll use Alleryn's suggestion and try to split the loot tables into equipment and such that are specific to one zone in one loot table, stuff that likely drops from all the monsters in the other table. Will try this in the next few days. Cheers! [[User:Ransel|Ransel]] ([[User talk:Ransel|talk]]) 12:52, 7 August 2021 (EDT)
