If you log off its not yours anymore. Think this same discussion was had about the Grimrot camp with people logging on and off. Not my rule but pretty sure thats what was said at the time. I might be mistaken though.

You are in fact mistaken.

Incorrect.

If you log off then you no longer own the camp and someone can take it but if you kill a mob then you own that mobs loot until it rots.

So at worse he can lose the camp he was farming but if someone loots the item off the corpse with out his petition they can be suspended.

Correct in all aspects.

Why does it matter if the chars are on the same account...I mean, unless you are illegally boxing you can only play one of them at a time anyways.

yeah, methinks the OP just revealed more than he intended about what he sometimes does. Buff bot much?

But is this really true, a killed mob's loot belongs to the player's account, not the char that did the kill?

I did not know that, but if that is the p99 policy, that makes ONE BOXING much more flexible, and is refreshingly nice policy. Because yeah, sometimes you want to camp an item for an alt, and if this is the policy here, that makes it a no problem issue. Just camp to the other char, no worries.

Wouldn't it just be easier to just have another player you know and trust and have them watch the corpse when you are switching characters?

This way you can get the no-drop loot and keep the camp.

So I am thinking about farming a no-drop item on one of my characters for a separate character. To do so, I would have both in the same zone, kill the mob with one character, log out, login the second character, and loot. The problem is, I would have to wait until the timer wore off making it an open loot.

Since the item is fairly hotly contested, I am concerned about someone else looting the item off of me.

Are you allowed to "claim" a loot so that you can secure it for a character that is not currently logged in?

Where are you gonna do that, i will ninja it.

I mean plenty of disrespect, that's a bad ruling and you're doing the community a disservice by posting it.

I think it does the community a service to show that the same situation can be ruled differently by different GMs. One says it's ok, the other says it's not, so do it at your own risk apparently.

Insulting a person because of a proven ruling made by a GM it shitty, by the way.

Sirken agreed that it is still only your loot.
He said its FFA if you're the only one in the zone. Haha. Joke. Of course no one else can loot it if no one else is there.
