Default Looting Rules

A bard was kiting numerous mobs near KC and he lets numerous corpses rot because they have no value to him. If he says that I can't loot any of "his" rotting corpses (monsters he killed which don't aren't particularly valuable) once his corpse possession timer has expired, can I still loot the corpses?

Thanks. He was telling me people get banned over this. It seems fair game to me, if you loot a corpse whose possession timer has cleared (and thus allowing anyone to loot).

If you didn't kill it you don't have the right to loot it without permission.

Then what's the point of a loot expiration timer? Is there a place I can see this rule in writing?

So someone outside of the xp group can be given permission to loot it.

Items on corpses belong to the person or group or raid that killed them. The corpse being locked or not does not change that. -Especially- if that person, group, or raid is present and asks you not to loot them. It's ninja looting if they call you on it. It doesn't hurt to ask if you can loot, but if they say no.. don't.

Precisely, so what is Troxx talking about then? His idea would negate the necessity of a loot timer.

He said the exact same thing I just did. The timer is an EQ feature. Server rules, the more important thing in this discussion, say you can't ninja loot. Ask first. Respect what they tell you.

It's simple. If you didn't kill it, you have no right to loot it. If the person who kills it decides to let it rot, that is their choice. Ask and get permission or don't loot it.

It's really that simple.
