Yes it happens, happens alot to UW farmers if they over aggro but that is why you try to grab rare loot asap. Again you don't deserve a reward for failing.

/notsigned. The point of the game is not to die... It's annoying, but it'll just me more incentive to improve you skill bar, your team build or your play style.

Sad to see so much players wanting to hurt themselves by not signing. I support it as it benefits everyone.

Dead people are already so badly hurt that they can't pick things up. Plus I don't want complications later like something is out of reach for someone to pick up so they kill themselves or aggro a mob to wipe the group just to get whatever it is that dropped for them.

I think it's sad that you think it's sad that people don't want others to get rewards when they fail. Sad world.

Rewards for failure, roflmao. A boss I failed to meet the deadline for the new site upgrade, can I get my bonus now?

The one post above about picking up rare items quickly reminds me of the time a smiter for me had an ecto drop, ran up to get it and got killed by the 2 remaining aataxes. Had to decide do I stand there and stay alive until 20 minutes expires because he would not leave it. The sad part is I actually had to think about it.

Singed only for that one mission that I failed in the beginning of my carreer of GW. I died degeneration killed my target then a black dye fell and mission ended

Rant over

/Not signed You can pick them up as you go its not that bad there (infact i bined keys together to pickup items at the push of a key.)

I like it, it prevent people from killing you off and waiting for your drops to become available. B/C you can just leave and the drops will teleports to you.
I support any anti-scamming features.

People camping your drop is not a scam. It's a helluva assholish thing to do but it's not scamming. If people kill you off then they are extremely sad. I don't think I have seen anyone kill other people off just for a drop in over a year. Last time I saw something remotely like that happen was in FoW back when shards were expensive. But otherwise no, I haven't seen it. If people get you killed off then you need to learn the meaning of retreat. Sorry but just no. No reward for failing.

lol lol

/notsign lol

You know, change this won't hurt anything EXCEPT some kind of farming LOL.

For example, you go to UW, 1 is smiter the other is 600. The solo monk will aggro EVERYTHING in the area. Yes, it means high chance of dieing BUT it's the fastest way you can ever do to get ectos. You kill a lot then die. And still be able to get ectos.

what's next? loot automatically appearing in your inventory incase you don't see it drop or it becomes unassigned before you get to pick it up?

If you leave the outpost with nothing in inventory other than a few alternate weapons then you're not going to have problems with space for loot (except on long vanquishing runs). If you die before you pick up a nice drop, then you're not good enough to have earned the nice drop.
