Lootables
There are 4 different types of lootables in the game
- Containers = chests, coffins, treasure hoards that can be looted
- Monsters = bosses, normal enemies that drop loot upon defeat
- Loose Loot = on the ground, on tables, bookshelfs, in statue eye sockets, they can be anywhere, watch out for them
- Event Loot = During events like christmas, haloween, there is a chance for event items to drop containers or monsters

Loot Score & Gear Quality
Loot Score determines overall rarity that drops from the loot table.
Formula for loot score:
sum_of (item's_rarity * item's_drop_chance)
Gear Quality Score determines overall gear rarity that drops from the loot table. Gears only contain Weapons, Armors, Jewelry
Formula for gear score:
sum_of (gear's_rarity * gear's_drop_chance) / total_gear_drop_chance
You can see these values in the loot table pages.

However, some loot tables are not used in the game, but they are in the game as place holders, for example LootTable:Legend.
Here is the list of them:
Can someone please explain how the loot tables have been derived for each monster / chest?
