Looting corpses

#1 » Post by Vuudar » 27 Jun 2016 15:58

Hello,

for a few days now i have the problem that i often cant loot corpses. It started with my low lvl Priest but now has an impact on every char. Most of all when i farm Leatherworking mats. If i cant loot the mob, i cant skin it.

I opened a ticket and Dymond tried to help me. He even grouped with me and with loot on free for all, he wasnt able to to loot these corpses.

Everything i tried to fix this problem.

I deleted all files/add ons and even cleared out the registry.. even tho there is almost nothing in it.
Downloaded the client with utorrent and tried to play with a fresh and clean version. I used no add ons. Problem was still there.

So i used a OS backup from 2 weeks ago. downloaded the client once more. No change.

I ran further tests. I have the same problems with every other char, yesterday i played some time with my Priest, most of the time i was able to loot corpses, i joined a few rdf runs and was able to loot most corpses also. But the ones i couldnt loot...no one was able to. But there is no problem to loot if the corpse has any quest items on him. These corpses i can always loot.

Oh and i tried TW with my other chars. Everything works fine.

The only thing i didnt try yet is to install a complete clean OS (windows10). But i tried to run it from a different hdd with windows 7 and it was the same...

Right now i dont know what else i can do.

Ask the staff to transfer your characters on another account, maybe it'll solve your problem.

I assume this is a new bug caused by the newest update... :)

Issue seems to be isolated to highly farmed mobs.
Eg Felwood & Winterspring Firbolg - very low drop rates, approx. 50%.
WInterspring yeti, as low as 10% droprate and cant skin.
Random winterspring mobs (bears, chimera, rogue yeti) - drop loot and can be skinned fine.

Stocks elites, Deadmines elites, Mauradon, Sunken temple dragonkin - all variable drop rates, not the usual 'close to 100% drop of something'.

Been that way since late-ish last week.
Occurs on multiple characters.

Thank you for the observations/theory. This might help isolate the problem.

You might be right. It first happend to me in Winterspring farming the blue drakes there. Thats also the place where Dymond was grouped with me and wasnt able to loot them either.

It seems to be related to party loot. Possibly consequence of some trinitycore commit.

I can confirm that a good proportion of the mobs I kill are unlootable, including the green dragonkin in and outside of the sunken temple and the elite blue dragons in winterspring. As mentioned before when mobs bug out this way they become unskinnable, farming is essentially a nightmare as it stands right now

I don't know if its related or not, but I also am not getting rep as expected.

EG Killing Skellies in WPL - Ruins of Andorhal.
My char is 60, killing green 55's, wearing the Argent Dawn Commission, and only approx 1 in 6 mobs are giving me the 10 rep!

Happens to both of my chars also, one is skinner (and I posted already on the bugtracker), other is lock which I mostly play alone and get this loot bug (unlootable mobs) even if I play alone in Stockade.
Hope it helps.

PrimalWoW server was restarted, and the bug appears to be fixed.
Do not know if any work was done on this, cant find any notes or updates in the bug tracker.
