You kidding? This is way faster than logging in my alt druid to forage them! Stocking up! Now that things stack to 1000 I'll figure out what to do with them later. Oh, can we have extra house plots please?
Yes, these Pods of Water make me think of Ngreth as like your Grandmother, are you eating enough? Are you drinking enough water sweety? … Granny Ngreth
The bug with global loot in GMM was: We recently added a method to drop coin via global loot. I used that method to add coin to GMM instead of touching all the loot tables (Saves a ton of time) Unfortunately there seems to be a bug and if we don't ALSO include an item, (IE we only did coin) the rest of the global loot after that in the list of global loot fails (in code term it "early exits" the loop) So. we have a fix in for the REAL issue (that early exit), but that requires a full server down patch. *BUT* I could add an item to the problem global loot, and everything will work correctly, AND it that change can be hotfixed without bringing the server down. We decided it was worth fitting in the hotfix we had for other reasons. And pod of water has a value of 0 and is fairly harmless.
That is fine if you are solo, but in a group it still fills up the advloot window. I realize why it was necessary to do this on a temporary basis to ensure that more desirable items have a chance to drop, but it does create a lot of advloot spam (unless there is some way to filter it out that I don't know about).
Just set them to auto ask/roll and have at least one person in group mark always greed/need. They will disappear from your loot window automatically and take up one inventory slot for that player.
Have the master looter have his window pre-set to Set all to: leave on corpse. Whenever there is a lull in fighting and you are sure there is nothing good there, just have them press the button and it'll clear your advloot window.
Not all achievements are displayed prior to getting them. I wonder how many pods in GMM one has to loot.
