    Choosing a DB for ArcEmu

    So what are the current strengths & weaknesses of any DB you can think of....
    I remember NCDB used to focus more on the creatures, and WhyDB was big on items, but that was like a year ago at least & NCDB is now defunct. Now there are lots of ArcEmu DB's. I hear good things about the Ligh's Hope DB, and somebody made DPDB which I believe is a fork of WhyDB. So what is everyone else's DB of choice for ArcEmu and why? What is the strongest feature of your favored DB?

    Also if you know of any other DBs, post a link plz. Even if you don't know anything about it.

    So what exactly do you find to be it's strongest feature? Other than the fact that it is updated fairly often.
    What makes it better than another database? Do they have a good ai_agents table? Do they have creatures that other DBs lack like this one? That's the type of stuff I am looking for in this thread...

    Not everyone wants a Blizzlike experience. As far as funservers go, ArcEmu will be superior. ArcEmu has far more customization abilities than any other Mangos-based Emu. Love how you tried to take my question about databases & very sly-like just say ArcEmu sucks without providing any real answer to my question. You should be a politician.

    Well in my opinion every db is great, just they have different good and bad points.For my db LHDB i cant say too much good things.I am the only developer and that i can say.It takes me a lot of time fixing and adding new stuffs, but somethings i cant fix is no one is reporting it.A lot of ppl are using my db but they dont report bugs, so that is why i am sometimes slow, if i had more bug trackers i would do more fixes daily.Now about ai_aggents, items, scripts yes i am focusing on all even to spawn 100% blizzlike with waypoints, + you can use my core with working not fully vehicle, party mounting works.

    This is the kind of in-depth answers I'm wanting. I'm wanting to chop all the best parts out of databases & make a frankenstein database.
    But since everyone seems so adamant about IFDB being the best, I guess I'll start with that as a base.
