Darkweald character not picking up all drops

[lillvargen]

I checked my character at one point, saw a pouch on floor a bit away my character didn't pick up, when I went over to take it the pouch disappeared

I get it the drops are good in there, but who knows how many pouches disappeared like that during the fight

If autocombat character has finished a fight, it chooses its next target according to what is closest, and it does not distinguish between loot and something it can attack. If loot is closer, it goes for loot, but if mob is closer, it attacks the mob. So for example if you're a ranged character fighting a ranged mob, and it drops loot, but meanwhile another mob spawns closer than the dropped loot, you will engage combat with the newly spawned mob. That can sometimes take you further away from loot already on the ground, especially if the new mob is a destroyer that pulls you. Losses happen and manual is always more efficient than autocombat, not only because of loot, but also because of grouping mobs. If you care about efficiency, then you don't afk.
