Mob drop update: The Plane of Innovation

[Runengetum]

OK, I realise that some of the mobs drops here seem to be very generic. Some items like Golden Ember Powder seems to drop from any mob in the zone. Other items such as Innovative Clockwork Gears and Silicorrosive Grease seem to me at least to be rather more specific. Up to the moderators to decide if and how they use this info, but this is what my studies in PoI reveal:

a scrounging clockwork:
Coiled Spring
Gears
Golden Ember Powder
Mana Battery - Class Five
Moonstone Crystal
Pinion
Saltpeter
Sprockets

an erratic model:
Gears
Golden Ember Powder
Mana Battery - Class Five
Pinion
Saltpeter

an obsolete model:
Coiled Spring
Gears
Golden Ember Powder
Innovative Clockwork Gears
Mana Battery - Class Six
Pinion
Saltpeter
Silicorrosive Grease
Sprockets
Steel Ball Bearing

a rusted model:
Golden Ember Powder
Innovative Clockwork Bolts
Knuckle Joint
Moonstone Crystal
Saltpeter

a corroded model:
Coiled Spring
Gears
Golden Ember Powder
Knuckle Joint
Mana Battery - Class Five
Mana Battery - Class Six
Moonstone Crystal
Pinion
Saltpeter
Steel Ball Bearing

an archaic model:
Gears
Saltpeter

a defective clockwork:
Steel Ball Bearing

a scrap collector:
Coiled Spring
Golden Ember Powder
Mana Battery - Class Five
Saltpeter
Sprockets

Been doing a lot more killing, and have loot information for some of the rares and factory mobs. Only a couple of updates to the loot table of my original post, mainly new mobs. Personally, I conclude that Golden Ember Powder is the only universal drop in PoI. Anyway, here's what I got:

an erratic model drops Sprockets

an obsolete model drops Mana Battery - Class Five

an archaic model drops Golden Ember Powder

a rust covered model drops Golden Ember Powder

a corroded model drops Innovative Clockwork Bolts

a corroded prototype drops Sprockets

a clockwork golem drops Golden Ember Powder

a tin soldier drops Golden Ember Powder

I've entered some of this into the database. In cases where the drop in question is also sold by vendors, often very cheaply, it doesn't matter if we have just "various mobs" rather than specific names. In other cases when there are at least several types, it's very hard to say that the others don't drop it. And given the design of PoI, it's highly unlikely that people will be able to do much selective farming of particular types of mob, to the exclusion of others. So in most cases "various" is fine.
