Can't loot with all these characters in my way!
I super agree. I’m almost interacting with NPC’s while trying to loot. So frustrating. I think it would be most ideal if auto-loot literally auto-looted – no need to hit “F”. This would also solve the WvW issue of not seeing bags while focusing on combat.
Yeah, I’ve posted about this before as well.
I think the patch notes said that looting now takes priority. But I almost always still talk to NPCs etc. trying to loot ><
Priority pick up was implemented a few days ago.. If you don’t notice it, please post in the Bug section.

The priority was very helpful but I still have some issues with chatting and looting being the same key. If there is a pile of corpses waiting to be looted and the dynamic event is moving on, I do not have time to search out every drop. So I try spamming the loot key as I run through the battle area. So I still get the chat box popping up if I happen to be out of range of a loot-able corpse when I hit the key.
Either having a separate key-bind for each or make looting completely automatic (it just appears in your bags) would be a great way to fix this annoyance.
AOE looting would drastically reduce this issue…
AOE looting please, anet thanks!
Yeah, it’s definitely still a problem. AOE loot would be boss. That would really help with the WvW issue of not seeing a bag pop-up and running off from it, also.
