Guild Wars 2

I just remembered that AoE looting option was added, so I checked it in the options during temple of Melandru pre-event and there were hoards of mobs, most of them dropped loot, pressed F and it didn’t loot more then one?

Am I doing something wrong here…I mean how do I get AoE loot to work?

The default is to leave it bound to F but this leads to a problem. If there is something to loot nearby it will only loot that not the entire area. It is best to bind to another key, works amazingly well.

Like Yargesh says. For “best” results, bind it separately. Otherwise, having it checked, don’t be near a body to “Loot”, an npc to “Talk”/“Greet”/“Sell”, etc. anything that will pop-up that small text window telling you what you will do if you “Interact” with it.
Takes a bit to get used to but so glad they put this in.

Ok thanks got it working

Yeah, I finally got used to using it exactly this way, and I really like it. I wish it didn’t include a single Loot interact as something that overrides the AoE loot, but I can live with it, whether they choose to change how that works or not.
