Automatic Looting please!
You can now enable group looting in your options and bind it to a different key.
Problem solved.
No bindings. Just auto loot. Or ok, binding for those who like to press keys, autoloot for the rest.
Besides, I definitely don’t want to use the same key as the default activation key and there’s no key left in a reachable area.
What kind of objection is there to autoloot, anyway? Even if there is one for some, it can be an option for others.

They’re not going to work on autoloot, because they just put AOE looting in. The solution will work for most people. Autolooting is simply not going to happen.
or… pressing the new key, the next 10 seconds is activated autolooting…
Tip: if you see loot near a dead npc simply do not get within res range you can now loot from afar. Seems like a problem solver right there.
Why should I press keys at all? Enemies in a 10,000 foot radius should just die as soon as I point my camera at them, and drop precursors straight into my bags…
Seriously though, AOE looting is a nice quality of life improvement. Automatic looting just comes across as laziness now that we have AOE looting.

I want auto looting where it loots precursors out of other players bags when they get near me.

LMAO! Oh I could hear the screams already. lol
I still haven’t read any objections… just somewhat funny comments by people who don’t seem to care about this.

Okay here’s my objection. I don’t think a big enough percentage of the player base cares about this to waste developer time to implement it.
It really is that simple.
New AoE loot is great, but true automatic loot couldn’t hurt.
Love the new AoE loot.
I must be doing something wrong. The new AoE autoloot doesn’t work for me, and yes, I have it enabled. I don’t have it bound to another key, it is still ‘F’. When ‘Search’ comes up, and I hit ‘F’, it only picks up one loot. What is amiss?

You need to use it when there is nothing up to interact with, that is why I have bound it to another key. Not a very intuitive design.

I have the exact same problem.I haven’t key bind a specific button to Aoe loot the corpses.I’m still using the Interact button but it’s not working for some reason.It does collect all the loot arround me.

This is in a future patch for Thieves… New Ability, Press F2 to Steal all Legendaries / Precursors from Targets inventory.
Just to make them even more hated!

On topic of those having problems with AoE Looting… I just re-bound the interact key to Shift-F and AoE Loot to F… Now I have no problems at all, whereas before it kept trying to interact or only loot 1 bag at time. Try it out. Takes some time to get used to Shift F for interact though.

I don’t really object to autolooting, but I did find cause to make fun of your stated reason for wanting it added. I can actually see autoloot being useful for WvW where picking up loot is usually the last thing you’re thinking of, and circumstances may prevent you from doing it after a battle (e.g. because you died and had to waypoint to rez).
However, it’s less of an issue now that we have AOE looting, and as Vayne states, there are probably better things the developer time could be used on.
Thanks, everyone. I found a thread in Game Bugs with a Dev answer. I understand it now, though it still doesn’t seem to work (even as it is supposed to) for everyone. I have to agree that the way they set it up isn’t what I was expecting, but I will try some of the other methods for getting it to work as I desire. Thanks, again. =)
