Too Far Away To Loot Bug

[AnonSubHuman]

I've seen this happen on Vexven Mucktail, three times in High Pass. I am standing ontop of the rotting corpse, and it says I am too far away to loot. Screencap taken for posterity. I attempted to loot the body from all sorts of angles and distances close to but not directly ontop of the body with no results, same results for /loot when nearby.

I dont know if this will help, but I've had a few problems looting corpses (esp in Feerott, where they often die inside trees. Make a hotkey with the following:

/tar a
/pause 2
/loot

In your particular case though, you will have to type that manually because its a named mob. ex: /tar Vexven then /loot. It may or may not help as I've not killed a named mob yet, but I've had more than my fair share that would not let me click them even standing on top of them, even though I could clearly see them.

Happened again this time in High Keep. The few times I"ve noticed this problem has been with mobs killed on ramps, although the previously mentioned example was on a flat plane.

Try relogging. I will also tell you if it involves water you need to do this.

Often I would be hunting seafuries and kill one in the water. As long as it wasn't too deep, I would swim straight up at the corpse right clicking, and be able to loot when I was surfacing, looking straight up. If you kill the mob in deep water, you will see it slowly sink to the bottom, and always get a too far away to loot message. Relog, and then use it should be near the surface, and voila.
