Guild Wars 2

Malchor’s Leap (Borlis Pass) – Traveling from the passageway entrance on the left side of the Cathedral of Zephyrs, along the path up to the “Sculptor’s End” Point of Interest. I killed two Risen Eagles along the way that sparkled to indicate they had loot. But I never got the “[F] Search” prompt even when standing right on top of them. I will update if this happens with other monsters and/or in other areas. For now, just Risen Eagles in this particular area.

Sometimes you have to step back from it, this happens mostly when the enemy seems to die under the map itself, rather than lying on the ground, if you walk around the area it should pop up, you see this issue a lot across Orr itself.

press F whether you see the prompt or not, and you will loot the corpes and the sparkles disappear

Nope … I have tried positioning myself all around the vicinity of the corpses. No F prompt, although I DO press F and nothing happens. The sparkles remain, taunting me.

Update: this seems to be only Risen Eagles. I exited the game and came back after an hour or so. I have had three more Risen Eagles do this to me since, also in Malchor’s Leap, but this time while assaulting the Cathedral of Eternal Radiance. Not ALL Eagles. Some are okay. But many that sparkle do no allow you to pick up the spoils.

I’ve had the same thing, but it was the same as Ok’s suggestion. Sometimes I have had to walk a lot further away/higher/lower than I should have done, but I have always managed to find it somewhere nearby in the end. Needs a fix yes, but it -should- be there somewhere.

Lately the game seems to not show the interact popup even when you can in fact do so from time to time. Yet to figure out the exact conditions for it to happen tho.
