Passing items from chests

Silvermarble · 22-09-2008, 05:14 PM

I experienced this a lot: a tank gives some scrolls in chest (that normally reserved for him) to a wizard, but the wizard doesnt know it so items go forgotten in chest forever...

It would be really good if it was written in general and party chat when some1 passes an item to you.

Yup, that is a good idea. Maybe not general chat tho, as I can't remember ever looking in that, so how about group instead?

Why not categorize it as "Loot" and let people decide where to view it?

Even better

/signed nice idea,

-also would be good if if became impossible to assign loot to someone that has recalled from a dungeon, IE: their name dropped from the list of drop downs... to avoid accidental assignments with the fiddly dropdowns

and

-would also be nice if items became ' group open' once someone leaves without assigning it to anyone, so any group member can take it ( but not a DC player).

- Would also be nice if someone wanted to put an item up for roll, there was a 'Group Roll' option, where if he selected it, the loot icon would change ( turn orange or something) showing the rest of the group it is up for roll, and if they click on it, 2 options roll/decline, and an automatic rolld100 is made if roll chosen , and lists the current highest winner with a 5 minute countdown until rolls cannot be made anymore ( that also takes into account people leaving dungeons, but NOT a DC player ) for automatic assigning without needing to type anything.

With the current (?) bug of getting tossed out of dungeons on crashes, I don't think that's a good idea, until we can trust the DC mechanism again

Hey, what about if the player who passes the item just types "<nameofthewizard>, i left something in the chest for you" or says that (if voice chat is used) - now that would be innovative!

OK, who are you and when have you been watching me???

I either get the item and trade it with the wiz or pass it over and tell them in the party chat.

yes, i think every1 will write if they give something valuable but there is a lot of ppl dont want to write it if they pass things like arrows-tools-scrolls etc

and agreed categorising as "loot" will be better
