Default Get drops when you die

Everyone knows that if you forget to pick something up in a mission and you complete it, you can get it afterward. Well, I think you should be able to get them even if you fail the mission or all die because, say you don't have any inventory space and have to wait to clear it out before you can pick it up? Really not fair if we die when we're on our way to pick up a gold or perfect purple and then everyone else dies so we can't get it. What does everyone else think?

I don't think the system needs changing.

I meant max dmg, req. 8-9, and I've seen perfect purples. I actually have some for sale in my store.

And the inventory spaces refers to multiple armor sets since ANet won't give us an armor closet.

well see your thread makes no sense
ex. if somebody drops something like a wallet or jewely, and then someone shoots you and you die, would it magically transport to wherever you come back to life?
well i don't think it can
unless they invent something like that

"whoa hey im dying! id better use "item retrieve spell!"
that would be nice

1) Don't die
2) Don't play with a full inventory

Problem solved. This is a really unneeded change, /notsigned.

real life examples don't really work in a fantasy game otherwise.....

ex. if somebody drops dead, and somebody uses a resurection spell, would it magically bring you back to life?

There is no reason to reward failure(death) in this fashion. Please tell me you are joking.

/notsigned As people have said you shouldn't be rewarded for dying. If you get a good drop and you have a problem with dying then get it ASAP. Don't be stupid and run into another group to get it but wait till you finish that group and get it. As for a full inventory, just don't... even towards the end of a mission or area you should just be getting a full inventory so it shouldn't be a big deal. Salvage more if you need space tbh.

Well sometimes it's easier said than done I mean "don't die" - Well yeah sounds good doesn't it...

Here is the fact: sometimes you're going to die and I think there are sometimes you should possibly be allowed to get the drops. However, if you're in a mission with a full inventory - I would say too bad think ahead. I mean next thing we will see someone want to access their storage for lockpicks during a a farming run b/c they forgot to bring them? Which I have done.

Doesn't even begin to make sense, even in a fantasy setting. If you die, not getting your drops if part of the punishment for failing to stay alive.

QFT!

Also, if you died with a gold on the ground, your party wouldn't all die just to spite you. They would wait until the reservation wears off and go claim it themselves.

Even still, when a gold drops, you go claim it right away just in case the party does wipe.
