Wow some friend you are

But to the point, yes you should go with people you trust and with your friends but their not always going to be online and if they are they might not want to farm with you. So yes I do agree that the timer shouldn't run out stop all those arse holes from winning.

Keep it the way it is. I enjoy picking up things others dont want. And the chance this is gonna happen to you, even in a pug... 1 in a million? And that's when your careless with people you join with.

Wow its really easy to pick up a drop when your alrdy dead and something really good gets assigned to you........ or when you get bodyblocked and can't reach it, or when group has to retreat right away or die. It s not like that ever happens huh fiery.

life's a b!tch, then you're dead. Or in this case, life is a horrible b!tch-goddess and then you're butt-raped for twenty minutes trying to get that GREAT item, THEN you're dead.

Keep it the way it is.

Just pick it up when it drops, if the others die tuff luck, if you can't trust the others then let em die.

A simple feature could prevent this: A "Pickup All" button. This instantly picks up all items assigned to you. The button should be programmable to pick up everyting, only rares, only uniques, etc. If your inventory is too full you won't be able to use the button.

Ok one last time since ppl seem to keep saying junk.
I made it to HoH, however along the way we lost a ranger and the monk

We keep going caz it can be done. Get to darkness,attack, kill, i die caz of no monk, and a real nice green drops in my name. Luckily i was with decent grp that rezzed me

. But the point still stands if its drops with my name then i am supposed to get it not be backstabbed with the current system.

Umm, if this is really considered an issue, simply make it so that the timer still counts, but the drop doesn't officialy time out until the player it was assigned to leaves radar range of the drop, or otherwise leaves the party.

Of course it's not really an issue IMO, the only people that are truely effected are PUG 2-3 man farming groups.
