Guild Wars 2

Ok I’ve read that you can only loot these once a day in the zones. Why aren’t they instanced and go away until you can loot them again. I don’t remember which ones I’ve looted and which ones I’ve gotten already. Wouldn’t I be griefing other players by looting an empty kite basket? Or did I read wrong and I can loot more than once in a day for the same location.

Once a day per zone’s location ..so if you do the one in Queensdale near the Centaurs then you no longer get to loot that one , itll pop up on your map but u get there and get to only open empty bags.

Yeah that’s what I thought. Guess I’ll have to write down every location that I’ve gotten. I don’t want to open one that I already did and have someone else not be able to get theirs.

Wow, just started doing these. Horrible design, ArenaNet. Large flaw on an otherwise interesting event.

Problem: If someone else opens a basket, it disappears for me. So again it’s just like that other (WoW) game, competing with others to see who gets there first. Haven’t we moved past this?

Problem: Lootable once per day per account, so even if I get there first I might prevent someone else from getting the stuff inside, and get nothing myself!

Problem: Icons on the map for locations I’ve already looted. So if I forget… oh, wasted trip. And depriving someone else of the contents.

Solution: Make these like those other things in game… you know, resource nodes? Once per day per account is perfectly feasible for things like a rich ore node. I can get there first, second or fifteenth and not lose anything. It doesn’t matter if I loot first, because I’m not depriving someone else of the contents.

Or the other solution is to remove the once per day, per account.

Please, please, please instance the kites Anet!
