That would make sense, although one of my favorite PKs was a 2v2 when my teammate died at the same time as one of my enemies, so I grabbed their heal potions and quaffed them mid-combat to win.

Although I'd like it if that ability wasn't taken away, I can see the wisdom in making fights -more- about winning by having to win before you can loot.

The reason I don't really like the idea, though, is that back row people will still be able to get all/recall.

When given the choice to wimp 'lighten load' or wimp the "get" command, I'll choose lighten load. Especially since I'm not a big fan of NPC-only buffs anyway, and lighten load in particular just allows for people to grab entire corpses without a care in the world or even a penalty to their dodge rating most of the time.

Oh, and disarming either leaves the weapon in the disarmed person's inventory, or drops it on the ground. It can do either.

Rofl, Lighten Load is fine, without the whopping -2-(I think) NPC-only spells tribunal members get, it'd be pointless to join a trib, unless you just really wanted a tank. You can get buffs everywhere.

"Get" however is starting to -get- ridiculous.

I honestly had never seen this before, but now, almost every fight I see... 3vs3, 1 person dies, like 3 people hit "get all corpse" immediately.

Well, the weapon is. All the armor is still on strapped the dead corpse. Just because someone dies doesn't mean their breastplate magically removes itself from their body...







...Except in SK, when it actually does....







............


You get my point anyways.

So make bodies so they're still wearing the items they wore when they died.
that would give more meaning to "pry it from my cold dead hands", if nothing else

The 1337 players type "get all.corpse".. that way you're only picking up three items instead of a dozen. Assuming LL and GS are in play.
