    I hate it in like WOW when you had quests for example "kill birds to collect 10 claws" and you got a claw like every 20 kills and I'm thinking hang on a sec all birds have claws and why do they only drop one? Last time I checked  birds have multiple claws.

    Again time will tell but I will bet this type of thing wont help keep players interested.

    Now i remember in WoW having to run through 20-30 mobs at times to get 10 quest items, and this simply pissed me off. It was nothing more than a timesink, and a frustrating one at that. But i got in an argument recently when someone claimed it is more immersive to not have a 100% drop rate, and to have to physically loot the mob to get the item.
     
    So what is your opinion on the matter?



     

    Im all for it. !00% drop rate and no looting is a very good idea. Saves bag space, but in the end it would be the same as kill 10 lions, with the exception of a diff quest story of im cold i need pelts get them from me rather than im in danger kill lions for me. Works for me.

    If I get a quest to collect 10 squig brains, I assume they all have brains considering they're walking around and fighting back.

    I always thought it was stupid, not immersive,  to not get a drop, when you could clearly see the mob had  feet, eyes, skin etc..

    You still loot items like most other games, this only applies to quest items. That's my understanding anyway.
