Hero Drop Item icon? When was this put in? - Guild Wars Forums

Konig Des Todes · Jun 06, 2008, 08:29 AM // 08:29

Not sure if this is where this goes, if this is the wrong place, please move it.

My question is when was this implemented? Here is a pic of where I found it...

I have always heard complaints that heroes cannot drop items, and I don't recall this being here before, I literally just noticed it. Anyone else not notice this until now?

I've been using that button for a long time now ;

aprox. 2 months ago i found out it guess .

Big_Daddy · Jun 06, 2008, 08:33 AM // 08:33

It has been there for quite a while. What I really do not know is how to make a Heroe pick an item up (ex: The Spear of Archemorus)

Konig Des Todes · Jun 06, 2008, 08:39 AM // 08:39

Well, I can say that I feel stupid for not knowing about that icon. I never saw it before, even though I probably stared right at it several hundred times. And now I wonder why people are always complaining that Heroes cannot drop items.

Anyways, if this is where they put a item drop, maybe an item pick up works the same as manual target *have the item as your target and press the target button*. Just a thought, maybe I'll try that once I finish this vanquish.

I think it turn up around the same time as Razah, and use mainly for RT skills.

Also useful for the boss in Kathandrax dungeon. Stupid flame bombs...

Can't recall the exact month when it was added, but it certainly was at some point of last year.

Richardt · Jun 06, 2008, 02:30 PM // 14:30

I know it was before EotN came out-I remember doing dungeons when it first came out and Livia had that icon.

NoXiFy · Jun 06, 2008, 03:43 PM // 15:43

cant (...shame aent it! I've suggested it in Sardelac before (with great /sign from everyone) - heroes cannot hold "bundle" items - or D'alleio bonus would be much easier - same for sunjiang HM ^^ (still easy though :P)

Commander Ryker · Jun 06, 2008, 11:26 PM // 23:26

I'm pretty sure that's just a rit skills thing.

pamelf · Jun 07, 2008, 02:54 AM // 02:54

Never noticed it because I don't use rit heroes. Damn...wish they'd put it in for all heroe's and items.
