Hi,
I would like to request a change on the way looting of other peoples kills is being done. Currently, if someone is close enough to you when you kill a mob they have the ability to loot it. I'm not sure why this was implemented or when because I don't remember it being this way. It seems that folks have a good 30 seconds or so to loot the mob before they get the message that they can't loot this mob. Sure, they cannot loot a no-drop item, but they can loot plat and any other item on the mob. I think this is backwards. It probably should be that the group that kills the mob has 1 minute or so to loot the mob before an outside source can loot it.
I really can't see the benefit to the current system. As an example I was killing giants from a distance by blasting them. If I was too close to the mob then they would interupt my spell. Someone else stood by and looted the giant just as it was falling. I realy don't see how that is fair. A GM pointed out that I should've taken a screenshot but that isn't really the point of this. I just think it seems strange that other folks can loot stuff from my kills.
If possilble, please look into this to see if can be changed to the older system that I remember, where the person had to do atleast 50% of the damage to the mob and still be in the zone to be able to loot it.
Thank you.
