These monsters I am very proud of. My goal was to make as close as possible the actual monsters in the game, abilities, skills and most importantly items. I made a pretty complex random drop script to go with these monsters. The abilities may be a bit iffy as I haven't actual been in Old Sebilis, I just used various reports I found about their behavior, so it may be slightly inaccurate.

I'd like to see a lot more EQ->NWN conversions. They're both great games, but I think if we take the creature/item system from EQ and the other systems from NWN, we can have one excellent game on our hands. The fact that you can play NWN solo is great as well.
I like your work and find the scipting great =). However i am converting EQ mobs and have 73 but can't script random drops. I also have not included all the items either. But I am making progress and if anyone thinks EQ mobs on NWN is a waste of time just ignore them =P. If you are interested in my mobs please contact me at [email protected]
P.S I have been using the Everquest RPG Monsters of Norrath Book for my monsters.

Just ignore the moron.. He OBVIOUSLY a.) is generally ignorant about fantasy worlds and how 99% of their content IS interchangeable, and b) Hasn't been to Walden books where you can buy the Everquest D20 CORE RULES and Monsters of Norrath Monster manual for 3e stats.... Game developers seem to have felt EQ has a place in 3e so it's only natural players would translate it sooner or later...
This is a compilation of the old system into a single score. There were 2 that made this score of 5.50 then rounded to 6.

Klaunavan, arn't YOU forgetting something? People take stuff from Dungeon Siege (sp?) as well. Except they don't even make it on their own! Whats so diffrent about doing it with EverQuest? :P Most of EQ's mosters are D&D based and fit in perfectly with NWN anyway. ;) (Owlbears... geeze come on now.)
I think you did a good job on this. Should make Mayong Mistmoore sometime. ^_^ (goes back to working on her cwap adventure)

well your right, there is another reason I choose OS.
Initially it was for a module I was doing with someone
else, it sort of fell through. He was a veteran EQ player
and OS was both a high level zone and one that was easy for
us to do in terms of the actual zone and the monsters
inside it (aside from those little mushroom guys, not sure
what to do with them). One reason I wanted to make this
public was so people could tweak them if I got them wrong.
So please if I did get something wrong, correct it if you
can and send it to me and I will include it in the next
update. I want to make this a community project as much as
possible. Hopefully someone with the experience and level
design ability will use these monsters to completely
recreate Old Sebilis. I'm just helping things along :)

Nah, dont bother replying.
Actually, I played Everquest and it's quite fun to see some
of the stuff beeing ported. Gives that familiar feeling we
had with one game to the other.
I just don't get that you never been to OS yet you are
tuning the monsters basing yourself on it, I know you get
your data from Databases on the web, but I just dont really
trust it.

Klaunavan - So you dont like something, well, here's a
suggestion. Go find something you do! Pathetic juvenile
ranting merely shows your intelligence to be at a level
where you'd be heavily penalised in the nwn engine...
Different people want to do different things with the
toolset, if they'd like to do a project that is based on
an old favourite game they play, good luck to them. Who
knows, perhaps *gasp* people might not like the idea's
you'd have for a nwn project.
So kindly remove your head from your behind where you will
be suffering a rather horrible penalty to your dexterity
and go find something you do approve of...

Aren't you forgetting something friend? This game is
nothing about EQ, and should not include anything from
that game. So why dont you just play Ever Quest now that
you are so fond of it?
Im sick of all you Ever Quest freaks spamming your home
made crab all over the good NWN pages!

Please make it where wizzies can't perma camp D1 & D2 using
AoE and also please make henchman waiting at zonein
shouting "MAGI 60 LFG PLZ THX!" and please make a random
timed "Train to zoneout!"
;)

This is only a small portion of the monsters in the zone, I
plan to keep adding to this as I go along. The bosses are
the most difficult to do because of the drop tables.
Trakanon might take me several hours of work to do just
from a drop standpoint. I'll try and update this
periodically, so if your interested keep an eye on this.
