A group of dead foes lying on the floor where they fell, in armor, weapons in hand (or almost) would be pretty damn obvious, no ? What do yo uthink looting would look like ? Removing their belt pouches ? Unless terminally stupid, it would involve removing all armor (long, tedious process), or at the very least torso armor, helmet, gloves, belt / girdle, jewelry, backpacks (which need emptying)... Shall we go on ?Looting a group of enemies can be a one-hour logn affair. The ONLY time we might presume players to skip is during a quest / tournament with a stringent time allotment.My 2 ¢ !</blockquote>
