Loot All Button

[Tolero]

Tired of having to place each item from the treasure chest into your bag? You will be able to use the "Loot All" button to automatically have all the items in the chest that dropped for you placed right in your inventory with a single click! Items that bind will still ask for a confirmation prior to ending up in your inventory.

Are there still individual entries in the (Loot) chat window? It's good to be able to see what people are looting and, more importantly, cut n paste those IIDs for future reference

Does pushing 'Cancel' to the 'Picking up this item will bind it' abort the 'loot all' or does it continue to loot unbound items?

It would be nice to have options to say 'never pick up scrolls' or 'never pick up arrrows' too. It would be nice to have options to autoassign arrows to a random ranger in the group and scrolls to a random caster in the group.

Sounds good.

Go go drive by looting. "Ill pull all these mobs, you guys go ahead and loot and I'll swing by and grab mine quick."



that was sarcasm.

I do like the idea but I do think it makes the above scenario easier. Either way I never really thought it was that big of a deal to "loot" the chest conventionally.

*edit* Out of the 3 threads - this is the only one where I see potential for abuse. There are high level chests that will be looted using the tactic I mentioned above with or without leashing dynamics.

is there a 'no gems, bolts, or arrows' version?

Get a Large Gem Bag and a good Quiver and turn on auto-gather.

I'm pretty lazy and I approve this, provided it doesnt take any effort on my part...

How about "Release All", which marks the remaining items as free for anyone to take? (And which prints a message to that effect in the Loot chat)

This I like....

Are there any plans to allow the "Loot All" button to be customizeable to a key on the keyboard? Would really make or break its function for me...

It's a button on the chest UI right below the list of items, it does not currently have a keybinding, but that's not a bad idea.

I look forward to the keybinding should it occur. I know I'm in the minority, but I don't use a mouse to play DDO hence my concern. Still a good day for announcements. Thank you for the quick reply Phax and thank you for all the previews Tolero.

Only tangentially related (by the word all); delete all for confirmed mail, Please!!

all 3 of these are very cool

Thanks A_D, ya saved me a few seconds of typing.



Love the Loot button idea, would like to see the Release button as well.


(and then would wait for all the "I clicked the wrong button!" drama.

Yes, I just made a fast suggestion. To make it a little safer, you'd be able to disable that button in your preferences, and when you used it there would either be a separate Confirm button in another position, or a 5-20 second delay for you to return to the chest before it applies.

Only if we make you do a thumbprint verification and recite the alphabet backwards first! Just kidding... but having a one-click "give all my stuff to someone else" button is a very sensitive subject, and would have to have some SERIOUS confirmations happening.

My husband ran Valak's and received the rose diamond from Dead Girl. He was like 'boo I hate you rose diamond" and dragged it out to destroy it. Confirmation box came up "Would you like to destroy the Dragonshard?" ... yes, I want to destroy the stupid rose diamond. Wasn't until after it destroyed his dragonshard that he realized he should have read the confirmation box :X (I never let him live that one down heh)

I've seen players delete their characters even though we make you type your character's name in the box so it's things for us to take into consideration with something like that
