Be truthful... do you leave items/runes in loot boxes/rune stones?

    Hell yeah, auto-loot.

    Why leave things in boxes? Literally everything has a use, even if it's just vendor trash. Or better still, decon trash.

    I loot everything!
    Sometimes I am forced to leave a treasure map behind. Only exception.

    Yesterday I looted a node and only found Bast. Threw me for a loop, who leaves Bast behind? Glad they did though.

    not if I can help it when I'm soloing - but that's me grinding and grabbing anything and everything

    when I'm adventuring with me brother its quest focused so I only grab the kills/chest/etc, but if I've got time I'll grab what I can up to and including pickpocketing and then blade of woe >:)

    I'm confused, is there any reason not to leave behind items? I often run around with a nearly full inventory (no eso+ atm) so then I can only loot crafting mats that are already in my bag. Aren't node/chest contents instanced per player?

    The nodes arent personalised. If you leave stuff inside they WILL respawn wth new mats.

    @Bombashaman @wenchmore420b14_ESO @Pumpkin_pants @Avidspark this is a myth that people keep repeating, that the devs have told us isn't true (much like the myth about getting a better chance at getting a general at a dolmen if you don't close any pinions until the end, except more believable than that one). The respawn timer begins when the person who first opens the node/chest exits the looting menu. It doesn't make any difference if the node/chest is empty or not.

    The point is, if a player or more likely player(s) are out looting chests in a zone, and one or two players are leaving chests not fully looted, we are going to run into the partially looted chests before they have a chance to re-spawn with fresh loot & a pickable lock.

    I like to joke about leaving a white inferno staff as a gift to fellow players but if I have to be honest ... No . I clean it out and delete what ever I don't need so it respawns with new items for the next player .

    Personally, I get the point. You see the chest and get all excited, then find nothing but junk in it. Disappointment sets in.
    If they had taken it, you would have run by withiut stopping because there would have been no chest there. No disappointment.

    I have come across these, sometimes in places I did not know a chest spawns. Now I do.

    Edit:nOne reason the take everything from the chest is so that the position of the chest is not advertized to those who don't know about it. :smile:

    I take it all or I take nothing. There is nothing more irritating than going to pick the flower or the mushroom and only getting the worm. With the exception of a treasure map I already have because it won't let me have it. I'd take that too if I could.

    I don't have auto-loot but I take everything. Iif I'm looting something like a treasure chest and I'm out of inventory space I will destroy an item so as not to leave the last item for someone else to find. Besides which, it will make the chest respawn.

    Sometimes it's hard to stamp out myths. People still believe the myth about dolmen pinions and the devs have verified it's not true. There have been posts from players who timed out that opened node and chest despawn even with items in them.

    @UrQuan ,
    Thank you! I stand corrected and learn something new every day. I honestly did not know that they respawn even with stuff in it. And I been playing forever!! Lmao!
    I did know about the pinions and other myths, but not about this. \But fact remains, I still find this a **** move to leave stuff and I'm sure they respawn faster.
    But agian, Thanks for the Info!
