How this list is worked out

Quests: Kinah in the quest's reward table. Monsters: Σ over every drop row (expected successful rolls × average stack × the item's sell price in Kinah) + Σ over packages (packages per kill × Σ weight × average stack × sell price), using the variant worth the most.

Assumptions: Sell prices are what an NPC merchant pays; trading with players is not counted. Monsters with spawn points on the maps only; bosses are on their own list.

From the game files: client 2.0.6.0 (Steam build 25767555, 2026-10-07). A patch that changes these tables changes the list.
