Guild Wars 2

Everytime we do big zerg fights with my guild, at massive groupfights there are lots of loot bags just laying around lonely, and I can’t get them, because the zerg moves on or we’re getting wiped and the bags just fade away (with my precursor in it :sadface: ). I think it would be better to store all the loot you get in a bank like storage (like your account’s or your guild’s bank) and when you are finished doing your stuff, you just walk to the NPC and grab your precious loot. Later if you find that storage is not enough for your needs, you could upgrade it by tabs for maybe 4-700 gem via the gemstore. Arenanet would definiately get some money of it because I’m pretty sure that at least 60% of the wvw community would buy it instantly. And if you don’t want to upgrade that storage and it’s full while you are fighting with the enemy, it could drop the lootbags again. Tell me what you guys think of that in comments.

The plan (back in beta) was to have loot go straight into your inventory, however, there was some major design issue with the game engine itself blocking this from being implemented. Loot bags were the solution they came up with until the engine could get the overhaul necessary to make true auto-looting possible.

My guess is that there are a lot of other things on the engine devs tables taking priority (such as culling), but hopefully they haven’t totally abandoned plans to do away with the loot bag workaround.

Also, change the color of the loot bags to something more noticeable. I can’t count how many bags I’ve left lying on the bright snow of the borderlands because they are hard to see.

Hold left control, or whatever “show enemy names” is bound to. You’ll see more bags than you could ever imagine

Bags cull too. I will be running along looking for my bags and all of the sudden it says hit F but I see no bag. I waited about 5 seconds yesterday and it finally appeared.
