Guild Wars 2

Yes, Anet! Where is my loot? I Hate having to spam my loot key to pick up my loot. Since there is terrible lag many times I am long gone way before the loot drops so there is no hope of getting it.

It’s my loot and I want it dropped in my bag. You could do it in GW1, well do it in GW2 please. Am sure there must still be 3 or 4 precursers sitting out in the grass in EB, unclaimed because I had to get out of Dodge before the hammer train killed me.

And to add insult to injury, you can be standing right next to your loot, spamming the loot key and it still wont drop in the bag depending on the terrain or some other mysterious reason. It is a silly and useless system and needs to be fixed.

its true it seems like loot has decreased since aoe loot was added but even if the issues above cant be fixed atleast increase the range on it because that is just ridiculously small

Gotta love that floating steel chest in the air after dropping down near cliffside or something…. Long way back up to drop down and aim for it lol

i always wondered where do my loot bags go if I die before I pick them up? I run back to the fight spot and nothing there.

Loot?

Are you trolling?

Nothing like tanking a 30 player group, tagging every single one of them with some good dps, seeing them being crushed by your party and receive 1 bag of loot for the effort ^^
Guess i should go Pvd for some greens and ore..

i dont think anything is more RNG than WvW. Did that last night on my Ele. I cycled through my spells 4-5 times on an enemy group of about 20. I didnt get a single loot bag. I didnt even get a single blue, green, or salvage scrap.

Cant you just implement a proper AutoLoot All option ? Hackers can implement it,Why are you holding back anet ?

I remember being on a high pop server , being laughed at because i refused to install certain things and then got scolded for picking up loot and not being able to see the battlefield from a higher camera angle then the game allows..

1) They can’t redirect it to your bag, I get so much loot I would get encumbered in battle and die because I am super slow.
2) What are you talking about, I get tons and tons of bags after a good fight.
3) The autoloot works fine, I sometimes press it when fighting and when we have to retreat and I look back and pretty much never see bags left behind.
4) And again, last night I had to salvage my inventory 2 times during the same fight because it was full. Got 78 kills there. And I have a maxed out 160/160 inventory with about 40-45 free spots in it.

Lootbag drop rate is fine imo and the autoloot option is great, it even picks up bags that are floating in the air.

I for one would welcome an option to auto pickup, if you don’t want to use it you don’t have to.

I’ve had fights like this too, although not to the extent of having to unload my 160 slot bags twice in one battle. However, I have also seen the other side of it and gotten nothing after tagging the vast majority of the zerg. RNG is RNG and although sometimes you get the golden egg, I find most times I am more likely to get the goose.

Congratulations.
Since you are a direct damage dealer and hit like a truck and have cleave and are in the thick of it and probably have hardly any lag, i can undertand your statement..
gz on teh lootz..

now go play a cloth profession lower your settings and try to do the same..
yeah.. won’t happen.

All i hear is “QQ i forgot to press F in fight now and then, we lost and now i’m unable to accept what i lost.” This is a l2p issue you should be ashamed to whine about.

L2p? by pressing “F”?

hmm.. i see now..

They called Merchants,you should have to look them up once in a while….

You see, the Skritt secretly steal all your loot and sell them in a secret market located under ratasum.

My guild provides merchants, but was hard to place on down. We were pushed in the back of the tower and bombing the lords room. Happened in Woodhaven and the enemy kept running back. Eventually we had to jump out as only around 6 of us were left.

you don’t learn spamming F in PvE or PvP during combat, do you?

the only time you’d lose bags is when you die and enemies die after. but either:

• your team wins the battle and rezzes you, so you can pick it up
• you didn’t deserve the loot since your team lost, in which case you just need to learn to be a good sportsman.
• in case you have a spawnpoint near: you didn’t respawn quick enough to pick loot dropping after revival. lying there dead, while you could respawn and come back to fight is not helpful. this is a common new-to-wvw issue.

don’t get angry when someone tells you you need to learn something.

Protip: Press F while running

Protip: Use a macro which presses autoloot button every few seconds.

Unprotip: Get banned for using macros.

Thing is when you are fighting, in combat last thing you care about is loot, you even have to press a key to be able to see you have loot dropped and then you have to press another key and be in the area to get the loot. when running an organized group you don’t go back for loot (exceptions for a chest). it has nothing to do with dying, playing bad or good.. you simply don’t go back for loot.. (depending on the server that is) when i join the blob i couldn’t care less about the people i am playing with and i will go back an collect all the crap i didn’t pick up, make sure im first trough the doors and tag the lord before it melts..) iow, the loot system is kinda discouraging group play while a server is having extra spam to deal with, extra actions to preform extra calculations to do, etc.. it would be so much easier to simply have a counter.

NB: Stating L2p is as much an argument as using Godwin in a discussion.
Spamming F is exactly what you learn in pve ^^
Also Spamming F is exacly what you do in Spvp on many occations, see scarlets stomp achievement for references.

anyways.. trying to maintain, but i ain’t mad at ya..

^This

I get tons of loots on my bearbow ranger just by pressing my auto loot every 10sec ish in a fight, i hardly miss out anything, unless i find myself in a stupid position and die, but thats another story, and beside that, play for the fights, not the rewards, they are poor vs pve anyway.

Well they could improve one thing, and i wonder if this would be a consensus without any risks:
Problem:

• full bag handling: slows you down, emits a huge obstructing message on screen to press away, hindering gameplay.

Possible solution:

• Add an togglable option to not pick up stuff if your bag is full but instead receive a message in your chat that your bag is full. This should be enough for many people and for those who this isnt enough theres still the option to uncheck this feature and keep everything the way it is.
