There is absolutely no justification to make loot disappearing from the ground after like 2mn. (Unless sadism is a justification ofc)
I’m fed up of missing drops because I’m fighting or dead.
Sometimes the events are long and you have to fight continuously, or the other players can’t rez you because they are busy (or don’t care).
Loot timer should be more like 10mn.
Just remove the corpses after a while and make small bags like in WvW.
That’s very easy, simple, obvious and would benefit everyone.
