Silverwastes final boss chest
I just deactivated auto-loot and did not encounter this issue, so it has to be a bug.
Please fix! Thanks.
It sounds as if you just aren’t seeing the loot enter your inventory when it happens, which is before the cutscene. That’s why turning off autoloot seems to work.
If you go back and look at your chat (with game messages:inventory enabled), you should the list of items that went directly into inventory. Alternatively, you could split some stacks so you have a full inventory before you go into the final fight with autoloot still on and you’ll see the ‘full inventory’ message.
I was keeping track of my inventory when testing this, and I am telling you, there is some sort of bug.

Give them (as best you are able) date|time of successful kills, character name(s), and (if you have it) the IP addresses of the instances you were in.
I, too, keep track of my inventory and I, too, thought I didn’t get any loot from the vinewrath. However, it turned out (as suggested above) that I just didn’t notice, because the loot appeared before the cutscene, was below average, and therefore just slotted into existing loot in inventory. I couldn’t be sure until I reviewed the chat log and counted nightmare keys (I had +1).
Of course, something else might be going on with you. On the other hand, my experience is also consistent with what you are seeing.
edit: grammar — I’m sure “existence loot” would be excellent in some other context

IWN makes a good point: I found myself muttering “Where ma loot” last night after another boss encounter. Sure enough, I was getting the goods, I just didn’t note it at the proper time. Earlier this week, I had taken out the same boss in <24 hours (not a factor with all bosses, but a general statement of how some work) and therefore wasn’t entitled to the chest. So stuff sometimes happens and it’s not always a bug.
However, I’m not discounting your report, Ashantara. A ticket would be the best way to communicate this issue, so that a CS agent can look into the matter with you.

Just in case: unless something changed recently, there was no such limitation on SW boss.
