Loot Auto-drop in WoD? Please fix ASAP

[Yukariko]

The only real potential problem with this lies with the last chest of the dungeon. If all 7 other players quickly leave before you have rolled anything, even pass, will you automatically get the item?

Players leave some instances really fast, say much faster than a PS3 or slower PC can often load, or cos someone is still in the cutscene or whatever.

this DID used to be an issue in Crystal Tower loot but got patched out.
If it's the case in WoD, this needs to be fixed.

Not the issue. There could be eleventy zillion minutes before loot distributes and it won't matter if someone just plain forgets to lot/pass.

Someone who doesn't lot still shouldn't be getting loot in an instance where how much loot you can obtain is limited, period.

If he's forgetting to roll on loot then he's probably not very interested in it, period. It's also annoying to have to wait on loot just because someone isn't rolling.

"What if everyone just scrambles and leaves right at the end"
I have never once seen this in all the countless CT and ST runs where everyone just ups and leaves the second the final boss is killed. This to me sounds like a straw man argument.

You haven't played on a Legacy server then. When I was on both Balmung and Masamune, people left CT faster than I could get out of the cutscene and I'm on a PC o.o; I've never gotten the drop because of this, but... people have left fast before.

I would be happy if players in my group would just left ST after last boss without rolling on loot. Higher chance to get sand for me ^^

You clearly never ran CT during early 2.1. The way you'll see people drop dungeons and Primal HMs before the chest even opens, that used to happen in CT. On top of that, there was no auto-skip cutscenes you had already viewed, so PS3/slow PC users would take 30 seconds to get the cutscene to start loading, skip it, then get back to the game.

It was that in the first part but now with the upgrade items it's no longer an issue.

ya it should be auto pass..

[Aethaeryn]

It's been auto-pass for months and months now in CT/ST (May have changed when they stopped being weekly lockout? Everyone greeds on everything now, so haven't noticed). Dungeons don't auto-pass if you don't roll. Chances are likely that this is just a copypaste from the CT loot rules, kinda like how the Frontlines thing is a copypaste with the whole 'tomestones of philosophy' thing. But I guess there's always a chance they might have forgotten to make it auto-pass, sooooo.. better safe than sorry? Before they fixed this, I ended up with some trashy belt in CT, but it wasn't the end of the world. :P

Are you sure about that? The only time I've ever seen a drop get lost, is if everyone passes on it. I have never seen the result of everyone, except one person, passing and waiting five minutes, and I doubt you have.
