People taking your items, especially when AoEing

Bao · 11-09-2008, 10:16 AM

a few times someone would come up and follow while im aoeing so they can take my stuff. now usually if it was in the abyss i would have killed them quite a few times, when they spawned back i'd continue on a few times until i was satisfied. a few times it's only been greens, decent greens a few other times, but just recently some kid stalked me in DP1 and took a blue from me. i didnt even notice it was a blue until i saw him stop following me, and then after i killed a few monsters enough so that i wouldnt be annihilated in one go to turn around and check to see if it was a green/blue. and there it was, i saw it i was able to see it, then it was gone before i got there.
there goes about 5g.

How'd that happen? Isn't there a waiting time for other people to pick up stuff? D:

D: yeah but when you're aoeing a mob it's hard to tell what dropped especially when there's some kid following you the whole time just asking to party and ks/take your stuff.
but yeah, i had a big mob and it took some time to kill off some monsters before i could do a turn around and pick up my items.
and the whole time for you to pick up stuff is really not that big, it's like 5 seconds or so. Q_Q
outspark needs to fix that.

same here, but when you aoe you cant exactly do that cause the mobs are so far behind you Q_Q

I dont actively follow plp for drops but when someone leaves them laying on the ground I will pick them up. Im not going to wait and watch to see if they come back while the item disapears.

You snooze, you lose.
