    The node respawns at the same time anyway. Just grab the worms and bounce.

    ...or waste time making a forum post that won't change anything. Your call.

    Simple fix, is ZOS making all nodes instanced or force players to take all items.

    Leave the junk please. I just want worms so i don't mind. I wish i could put junk in the containers i loot though. Free banana;s for everyone.

    Maybe add a 1 second cast time when looting not all contents.

The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    The alternative to a half-looted container is no container there at all. If the previous player took everything, the plant/chest/whatever no longer exists, or is the "empty" one. When the timer started at open expires, the container respawns with new content, whether it was empty or half-empty.

    What this means is that when players leave containers half-empty, you find more of them, because they're not despawned yet. So your total haul actually increases. You get the same full containers you would have had anyway, plus a few extras that weren't emptied.

    The real complaint should be about the players who pick and choose between smithing ores and jewelry seams. Those don't get re-rolled until they're mined, so after someone's been through an area just mining the ores, all you find is seams. Players who don't have Summerset get nothing they can use (except to sell).

    Wow...actual logic. Well done.

    OP:
    1. It's not that big of a deal.
    2. It's not your node.
    3. Treat it as empty (which would be the alternative) and move on.
    4. Someone leaving something behind isn't mucking up your harvest half as much as you (assumed) using harvest map is mucking up theirs.
    5. Threads like this probably have the opposite effect, bringing out people that would normally clear all and instigating them into leaving things behind.
    6. See items one and two.
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    Don't leave junk behind!

    Maybe it's revenge for all the times they came upon junk. Their suffering is your suffering.

    The entitled attitudes are strong here. People would rather have nothing than have something for free if it isn't what they were hoping for. Loot the damn worms and go on your merry way, or leave it for the next person. Not everyone has craft bags.

    Btw I understand those who can't loot everything because they don't have a crafting bag.
    I was there. It's not their fault!

    It is actually - because they have the ability to destroy stuff. So, leaving it there for someone else to pick up is like littering and expecting other people to pick up after you.

    Honestly though, the people who do this kind of thing on nodes and chests are never going to stop anyways. They don't care about anyone else so they don't care about the inconvenience they cause when we have to throw away their trash for them.

    Players not looting the huge dolmen bosses is even more annoying than people partially looting anything.

    Actually, the "Entitled Ones" are those that think of "Me, Me Me", "I'm Selfish and will takes what I want", and think about no one else but them selves.
    I know it is a concept that is out dated and forgotten by some, but it is called "Common Courtisy" and 'Thinking of Others over Yourself".


    This is a old subject and re-spawn times and this and that don't matter.
    It boils down to what kind of person you are.
    Do you open doors for a elderly lady? Do you give up your seat on a bus? Do you let some one else to go in front of you in line at the store?
    Yes I feel leaving the "Un-Wnated Items" in Nodes and Chests to be a A** move, but hey, those that do it are probably that way in RL.

    I think you're being a little unfair. You could make the same case for people who take anything from nodes at all.

    "Someone wants this ancestor silk all to themselves? Must be a selfish low life in game and IRL." That's obviously dumb.

    Node respawn times are the same whether 1 thing is taken from them or if the whole thing is taken, the only difference is that instead of not seeing the node that has been cleared, you see the node that has had the materials you want cleared out, and you approach it with your own expectations and upon interacting find that the thing you hoped it had is not there.

    As to your "correction" on who in this scenario is acting entitled, it's the person who found the partially-cleared node and is upset that the thing they want isn't in it. The node will reset on the same timer it always does, so if you find something with only worms in it (or whatever it is you don't want), consider yourself lucky to have found something for free that would not have otherwise been there, because that specific node was not yet reset and if you had it your way, there would be nothing there at all.

    In summary, something > nothing.
