let's get real about item loot

Has this been mentioned? If not, discuss.

-4 level range
-Item loot of any droppable
-Bagged items included
-Primary/Secondary excluded
-Inventory slots (primary 8) excluded.

So:
-Can loot droppables from bags, but can't take the bag itself.
-Can't take items occupying a bag slot. Max chance of "bagging" 8 items, if all inventory slots are empty.

honestly with that many exclusions why bother with it at all

[nilbog]

That many ?

[dogbarf]

Thats why this server needs a FFA team to go with the item loot.


Red99 got a shit ruleset thanks to the same people crying about item loot right now. The super vocal crybabies that do nothing but post on the forums and think eq pvp is based on skill and that pointless pvp for the sake of pvp is good for the community.

+1. I like it.

why put anything except lube and food/water in those bags then?

you're just limiting carrying capacity and making this system a bigger inconvenience than any other one ive seen thus far.

Worn items + bagged items.

eh, i still think random is superior. this sounds like a bigger PITA than standard rallos bagging and encouraging people to play naked.

I think random is cool too. But if you can fill up slots with random items, how do you make it fair for someone who doesn't do that?

I would have 7 bags with 1 bone chip each in it.

Meaning 70 bone chips would come into play into the randomness...
