Interestingly, I was in a large temple (no spoilers) on Tatooine, a Republic Commando was there, and was not tagged (I don't think).

A few minutes later, he saw me fighting a mob, unloading my big attacks, he must have quickly toggled on his PvP, then attacked me. I still damn-near killed him. (I didn't think you could do that -- quickly toggle on and surprise attack someone already fighting someone else?)

Rezz'd myself, caught up to him in the next room, and laid about 10 Tracer Missiles into him, LMAO! Last I saw, after he rezz'd, he was standing up on a pile of rocks, not engaging, just waiting for me to leave; I'll bet his PvP toggle was then stuck to 'On' also, HA HA!




Tracer Missile wasn't even close to a Merc's most powerful attack.
Suckwads spammed it, other suckwads lost to it.
Most apparently didn't even know they had an interrupt. Smart nerf, BW!

Go into your preferences and change your looting to loot all of the adds around you and even if it doesn't have a look beam over it you can still loot it and you'll loot everything nearby.
Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me.

There are so many easy ways to fix this.
- Have any such loot automatically go into one's inventory.
- Have the loot 'pulled' from any falling bodies, remaining on the ledge where it can be looted.
- Hell, do like Fallen Earth, and send us an email with the item attached, as a "lost and found."



It would have been my 2nd unique Purple. yeargh



ps. I don't suppose a dev has a few minutes to look through the records and send me whatever Purple item that was?


EDIT: I was so overwhelmed with panic, I immediately lept off the ledge when this happened, just to make sure maybe I could live on the ledge, loot the purple, then jump off and die. Nope.




try and be less emotional next time you post, people might actually read what you say and take you serious

Thats just the way it is.
If anything, easy kills knocked to places that can't be reached should always drop purples...just so you have to think and ponder what you missed.

Ouch. That sucks man. Like holding a glass of scotch in front of an alcoholic's nose and telling him he can't have even a sip.
