Isn´t possible to increase the time that the dropped items and herbs can only be picked up for the player that actualy kill the monster?

I ask this because once in a while bots (no live player yet) run to the dropped items and start to catch them, because i kill (mainly) from distance and sometimes i cant pick right away the drops.

If the drops stay in the ground 10 minutes and then disapear, why dont make them only possible to pick for the one that kill the monster in the first 5 minutes or so?

as is
on my sub I kill things from a distance (sometimes in bot infested areas if I need a quest item ect) and have NEVER had a problem getting to my items before the bots, Ive also got last hit on a KS bot mob and got the drops before they could.

I prefer the actual system, because some bots dont take herbs, so i can take their herbs :D
i miss the old system because i used to love going to areas and cleaning up the messes.
IOP was a nightmare though before these changes.
i miss picking up the hundreds and hundreds of seeds that they didn't pick up...even more-so now that i have silent move.

Yeah... Sometimes I miss it too. I remember my first kk earned by selling A arrows to shop after picking them from Varka's :)

i have over 3 million arrows from d-a grade sitting in my wh. always picked them up...never sold them...never fired a single one.
I miss having to pick up all the arrows in Pagan after a bot party did its mess on the ground. :rolleyes:
