What feature would you like to see Blizzard adopt?Follow

Yeah it's a setting. It still has a limited range, but if you enable the AoE looting, if the corpses are fairly close to each other you only have to click one.

AOE looting would be fantastic - so long as it doesn't create huge lag. One of the things I hate about grouping is that my connection is slow, and if I'm grouping I can't loot AND keep up with my group.

Being able to change your taxi destination is a winner. Don't know how many times I've clicked on the wrong destination by mistake! Even if there was a tiny surcharge for this, it'd be worth it.

Being able to hearth anywhere you've been before would probably be overboard. I can see the farmers abusing it. I'd be happy to just be able to choose from 3-5 hearths.

I'd even be good with having a "local" hearth and a "city hearth". You set your "local hearth" to the area where you're questing and your "city hearth" to whatever is most convenient for you to bank, work on tradeskills, do your dailies etc. Right now my main is questing in Plaguelands with her hearth in IF. Whenever she needs to train or go back to IF for something important its a good 15 minute or more flight to get back.

A bag just for quest objects would absolutely rock! It'd make it a lot easier to confirm that yes, you had the right object and if it didn't take away from regular bag space, even better!

I also used to have an addon that sorted my bags so food was in one place, mats in another, etc. Sadly that addon stopped being supported for a while and I gave up on it before I quit. I haven't looked for a replacement since I got back to the game, but I probably should - I hate wasting time rooting through my bags! Wish Bliz would implement something like this.

Also I've been using the new Bliz system for my equipment, but I wish it worked a little more like Outfitter, automatically changing your equipped gear when you change stances. For instance putting a dagger in your main hand when you stealth (for backstab) changing to your mounted gear when you mount up (to take advantage of trinkets that increase mount speed) etc. I don't even know if these are needed in the present game. Are there still mount speed trinkets? I don't think rogues still need a dagger to backstab.

the downside with profession "titles" other than Salty (fishing) is each expansion moves the skill cap, are we to lose the title until we get to the new 600 cap come MoP?

Or like with archeology where it's about how much you do, not your skill level.

Make 100 alchemy items and get <Apprentice Mixologist>, make 5k and get <Master Mixologist>, 10k for <Grand Master Mixologist>, etc.

Apart from the fact that they removed weapon skills I can still see the sense in there being some connection between what you do and how good you are at it. I know it was a bit of a pain but I never really minded topping off my weapon skills each level. It was part of improving my character. I don't know why they got rid of them.


We have Auto looting - unless you mean not even having to click. AE would be good. I would rather initiate the act though since I have absolutely no wish to loot all those wolves that got in my way when I was turkey hunting.



I'm sorry but I think this is a horrible idea
Having played EQ where "kill-stealing" was a very real issue I have no wish to return to a situation where some griefer can mess with my mobs. I don't think you're making enough allowance for the darker side of human nature.

Where quests are involved there are already a lot of places where everyone present gets credit - often to a ridiculous extent - even if they are not grouped

I was more referencing ability acquisition. So, for instance, if I kill 100 mobs with Fireball I would then suddenly learn Pyroblast or something. This is in opposition to the "I dinged 20, guess I should head to Org and learn Pyroblast from my trainer." system. Weapon skill points were a leftover from Optima 2 type PC-RPGs and doesn't really add anything to a game outside of trying to emulate a pen-and-dice offline RPG.


Actually a very good point, but personally I would love to just be able to turn on fully automatic AOE looting and auto-sell the scrap later. Being able to turn it on and off would leave it to personal preference and make certain activities (farming instances) easier. =)


The point of removing the "ownership" from tagged mobs is exactly in order to remove griefing of all types. Both players get equal credit for the kill. I would have never thought this would be a good thing until playing the GW2 demo but it really does change how you treat others in the PvE game world.


Both players would have loot from the above system. I thought EQ1 had a similar system?

BTW, this was a wishlist thread, right? A boy can dream! =P

Besides alot of the things already mentioned, I'd also like to be able to drop a profession and later on pick it up again starting a decent level, not just at 1. For example 450 drops down to 375, 375 to 300 etc etc, just go down one mastery level.
I know why they won't have it, but it would make it a lot easier when I decide to swap around professions again.



Ps, Maz, come tank for my pala!

Can't speak for EQ2 but in the original the player who did over 50% of the damage to a mob received both loot and experience for the kill.

Yeah, on second thought, it might not work out so well.

They could tweak it so that only the "primary looter" - the person who did the most damage to the mob - gets blue+ gear on the mob, but that would also suck if you're farming world spawns for mounts or whatever.

Still, they could implement it with xp only. Mob gets tagged by the first person to engage, but everyone helping kill it would get a share of the xp (rather than their share simply being cut from the tagger's portion as it is now).

FFXI's Level sync system. Where the leader can reduce everyone's level down to a lower persons level.

EG 2 x level 80's want to play with a friend who is only level 35. create a party, level sync down to 35 and then all 3 people will be reduced to level 35 stats.

LOTRO's crafting system, where the materials you were capable of acquiring from mobs were the materials you needed to make gear at your own level cap. Unlike WOW's crafting system where there's no way in heck to solo mobs with the crafting items you want. So you have to buy them on the AH. And since you are a lower level toon with a lower capacity for making money, the mats you want are out of your price range, unless you have another level-capped alt somewhere.

I presume BLizzard did it this way (forcing most people to buy crafting mats rather than farming them when they were relevent) in order to create a working economy on the Auction House. But guess what? Even though LOTRO's crafting system was so much more (perfectly) in sync with your toon's own level, there was a thriving economy anyway. Gear and crafting mats sold really well on the AH

SW:tOR actually does something similar in battlegrounds. Instead of lowering everyone to a specific level for a battleground that is for, say level 10-19, they instead boost everyone's stats to roughly equal levels, meaning a level 10 and a 19 could go at each other with equal danger. The 19 would have more/better abilities, but that's about it.

So here I am questing away with my lvl 40. Along comes some lvl 85 with a 12 yr old moron behind the keyboard, and tags the mob I'm fighting. Since he's level 85, I get zero xp from the kill.

Even worse if the person who does the most damage gets the blues.

Meanwhile, this 12 yr old hasn't been taught manners by his parents and thinks it's very funny that he's stealing my xp, so he follows me around until I get disgusted and log.

I like the system the way it is now. I don't need the "help" thank you.
