Not sure why this is inciting so much debate. It's not really any different than passing loot to your alt by dropping a backpack of gear in a hidden spot, switching toons, and picking it up. Is it allowed if nobody interferes? Sure. Do you risk someone coming along and taking it just because they can? Absolutely. In that case, does it become a matter of risk versus reward? Yep.

If you are worried you'll have trouble then get a friend to hold the corpse for you while you switch characters. On live I'd done that numerous times at sensitive camps (like the AC in OOT) with a large line waiting behind me. It's generally easier than dealing with the mess that follows if you take the risk and it fails.

First of all - killing stuff for your alt is BS. You might as well start boxing... not much difference there...

Once you log off its free for all! Once the corpse is opened for loot it is FREE to loot! Everything else is BS. You wanna loot the corpse you have killed? Well fucken loot it in the time window you were give by devs. If you dont make it then dont be angry if someone else loots it. This is not Ninja looting! It is legal looting of corpse that the original "owner" did not loot in given time window.

I would not wait around the camp, If I knew someone is killing it to relog to an alt, evethough I think it sucks.
If I run through Ro and see an AC corpse and no1 around, Im gonna loot it.
If I find bags full of gear on the ground....I will not touch them.

People seem to be looking at it from two different perspectives:

One perspective is from that of a non end-game player on non-end game drops.

One perspective is from that of an end-game player on end-game drops.

Both are correct depending on the situation.

No, it is not. Ninja looting is ninja looting whether it is a raid item or a mask of deception.

It isn't a black and white issue to me. There are various shades of grey depending on circumstances.

I don't think the OP's scenario is an example of ninja looting. You do. So we will simply have to agree to disagree.

Flabbergasted at how some folks think there is somehow some form of justification for jabbing stuff off the corpse of a mob they have in no way contributed to killing.

I mean, no. That's just not how it works. No consent, no touchy.
