Field Breakdown

  • guid - Primary Key. Creature GUID (creature.guid).
  • pool_entry - Pool ID (pool_template.entry).
  • chance - Spawn chance (0-100): 0 = equal share among all zero-chance members; explicit percentages must sum to 100 and apply only when the pool's max_limit is 1.
  • description - Comment.
  • flags - Pool flags: 0x1 = spawn even when world population exceeds the Blizzlike threshold (FLAG_SPAWN_ENABLE_IF_WORLD_POP_OVER_BLIZZLIKE).
  • patch_min / patch_max - Client patch range.
