Yeah Hi, stop wasting my bag space with garbage ZOS..

Sleevez340 · June 2014

Yeah, so I started playing this evening after a long day of thumbing my arse. Since I quite literally have nothing better to do. Im on sick leave, doped up and casted. So I sat around waiting to give this new patch a go. Now i went to do some farming for cash for a respec, and my inventory is filling up with these white items that sell for nothing, and do nothing. Seriously, what the crap? I dont want to have to sift through piles of trash every 6 mins. Take your immersion and shove it, gimme my bag space back.

It's not currently working as intended. Those trash items were only supposed to be able to be picked up from physical weapons and armor lying around on the ground. They aren't supposed to drop from mobs and containers.

Sleevez340 · June 2014

Ahh, ok well that i can live with. Right now, its muchos annoying!

SystemiK · June 2014

Well if nothing else, at least your thumb got to do some productive adventuring today...

Excuse me? You're doing what now??

UrQuan · June 2014

Simple solution: don't loot the worthless white gear. You know that just because it's there, that doesn't mean that you're forced to pick it up, right?

Sleevez340 · June 2014

Auto loot, no one actually stops and looks.

Hopefully the fix for this is rolled in soon. Be patient and hopefully we won't have to wait for 6 more weeks.

A lot of people use Autoloot as a playstyle preference.

Once you turn auto-loot on, you don't go back.

Thats good to hear! I'm sick and tired of seeing nothing but crap dropping from bosses and mobs. I dont use auto loot so I pick through everything but its been REALLY annoying to see mostly all crap items drop from mobs and bosses. Specially a HUGE buzz kill when all I see is mostly all crap items drop from bosses. Getting seriously pi$$ed off about that!!! Kill that hard boss and dont get anything good from it. Makes me not even bother with killing bosses I dont have to. Wonder why they didnt fix that in this last update. Now we gotta continue playing with loot being broken until they get around to fixing it some time next year. >.<

I hope someone makes a mod that allows autoloot to ignore 0g gear items

Are you kidding? I mean, sure if you want to pick up stuff that you don't want and deal with managing your inventory way more frequently as it fills up more frequently, then sure (and yes, I'm talking about pre-patch). After trying auto-loot for a while and then turning it off I spend way less time on inventory management than I did before, because I simply don't pick up stuff I don't want.

Mightylink · June 2014

You know what there going to do... charge extra for more bag space in their cash shop. Purposely create problems in the game to make more money off of.

pong · June 2014

why don't you ask ZoS to make auto-play too..... soooo LAZY!!!!, there's a Option mark as junk and destroy all junk

zhevon · June 2014

So ... does this mean; that mobs especially bosses are now dropping non-crap stuff now?

There is a larger thread about this already... http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/113666/why-are-0g-junk-weapons-and-armor-clogging-up-backpacks-and-other-containers/p1

The answer is no. Bosses and mobs all drop this worthless CRAP that nobody even wants at all. Dont even get why they bothered to put that crap in the game to start with. Nobody is gunna ever use it so why the hell bother with it. Oh yay....here is some complete crap over here that i can pick up and equip over my epic grade armor and weapons! SERIOUSLY.....WTH are they thinking? What a complete and total waste of valuable time. They could have wisely used that time fixing more bugs, adding GOOD content, work more on class balance, and many other things in the game that needs to be done. And to make things worse on them it was another screw up on an update. From what I have heard those crap items was not suppose to make there way into the treasure pool but rather be items you could pick up from the environment. And its been this way since the other update. Makes me wonder why in the hell this was that not fixed in the latest update. ~Blood is boiling~ >.<

When you arent farming containers and have a 120 space inventory(without horse at that) you grab ALL OF IT because much of that "junk" stacks and sells well.

I go through it and trash worms and other equally useless crap(most food items.. who thd hell keeps a potato in their desk?) occassionally but thats it.

Sakiri · June 2014

Lemme guess, youre that jerk that leaves worms on nodes?

Have you a link to a 'green' post admitting that, I've not seen one recorded in Dev Tracker saying anything other than the usual "we're looking into it".

Yes

Coggage · June 2014

I use a Loot Filter mod, which means I can autoloot day in and day out and anything I don't want is deleted automatically.

Curragraigue · June 2014

This is the post that people have been referring to regarding whether the containers being full of 0 gold stuff was not intended, comes from from Gina Bruno

That sounds like it might be a bug related to a mechanic that was added. The patch notes said that the armor and weapons that you see lying around in the world could now be picked up, but they would be worthless (monetarily) but could be used as gear in a pinch. It said nothing about adding these items to the loot tables, though, as far as being in boxes and bags. I'd report that. That seems off.

You're correct in that assumption, @Bookwyrm. Just posted a clarification in the patch notes, but the zero value for armor and weapons that you find also apply to anything you find in an interactable object, such as drawers or cabinets.

It comes from the second page of this thread http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/113666/why-are-0g-junk-weapons-and-armor-clogging-up-backpacks-and-other-containers/p2

Ambiguous at best and I'm not convinced she was saying that the 0 gold stuff being in containers is a bug. She could just as easily be referring to the comment by @Bookwyrme‌ about the patch notes not referring to the inclusion of these items in containers, given that she says she clarified the point in the patch notes.

So intended or not we will find out soon I guess when they either remove them from containers or leave them.

I'm guessing you are also one of those DKs that uses chains on mobs that other people are within milliseconds of killing.
