I'd argue that it shouldn't be okay. Potentially people could spend a lot of time getting pop items to find that as soon as say, their tank dies and loses claim and before somebody else manages to regain claim, somebody nicks it making prior effort a waste of time, where as the people who took claim just needed to be at the right place at the right time. What's the point farming pop items when you can just wait for a party to lose claim? Heck, they'll even wear it down for you, making it an easier win for you. E.G. Dhorme Khimaira took out our tanks when he was at >10%hp and had proc'd and before anybody could regain claim somebody took it and quickly finished it off (admittedly it wasn't a brilliant party, but I answered to shouts in PJ in hope for seals). Sure pop items aren't difficult to find, but it was a complete waste of our time, even though we would have won. Of course I am not suggesting that you ought to be an easy win either, but the opportunity is kind of taken away from you even though your party isn't wiped.
