Wish loot was instanced in groups

[DirtyMick]

Been playing with friends and the way they do loot is the only annoying part to me. What we've thought of is, loot is greyed out for you if the game thinks someone else should get it. Otherwise, if it's normal color, you get it. But you can just grab whatever anyway if you want. So I imagine grouping with Randoms is everyone scrambles to grab whatever the best drops are. That sucks, imo.

Wish it was all dropped individually for each person on their screen, like grim dawn and diablo4 does it. I hate this weird grayed out loot, where it ends up lighting up anyway if an ally stands by it or takes too long to grab stuff, like it doesn't even stay gray long enough. If you kill a yellow enemy, and then finish up some trash mobs before grabbing loot, it all turns normal by the time you get back to the loot, so who knows who gets what. At least give us an option between instanced or shared loot when in party. Maybe it would just go by whatever the party leader's setting is.

Anyone else feel that way? Or you like this system better?

So IDK if you have actually checked the settings under GAME > Default Item Allocation, but there are certain settings you can change.

"Free For All" - literally how it sounds
"Short Allocation" - The allocation lasts 5 seconds then becomes available to all players.
"Permanent Allocation" - The Allocation is permanent until picked up.

Holy hell thank you. I'm an idiot.

I was wondering what the hell that meant in the party screen. Thank you

This loot is retarded. I just did a second run through the manor with a party member. To get to the boss have to do all the floors like normal but then get there, and it only gives me one item and party member gets all the other loot. ( this is with loot set to permanent ) . Why even play with anyone? They made the enemies have more hp or resistance. took same amount of time if not more with another player. and way less lot to go around then solo. Makes zero sense. I really hope they change this cause that made me lose a lot of motivation to play. If cant play with friends ever(for a reason other then to waste time) then idk....

I see you have a loot goblin in your group of friends too. If you hover over the 3 different allocation of loot in the settings it'll explain it but they should have a pop up when you open the party menu for the first time to let us know. Only found it out last night.

Bro, just trade items after the run. If they are your friends, talk it out.
