Cool, I was wondering if my /lootall macro would still work.

I've seen a few threads talking about RIS loot being bugged lately. I was on for abit yesterday just doing busy stuff, but a 2 guildies wer out camping the Woolamander temple and looting the bone fragments on a regular basis. However they did notice a few things that seemed kind of odd, and did some testing to confirm what they were suspecting.


A few changes seem to have been snuck in over the past few days. They noticed that if left on a combat macro a toon was going "AFK" and was doing no damage to a mob. They did a few tests and looks like this was confirmed.


Also if you loot using a macro it seems you get nothing or far less. They noticed a "dry Spell" where they were looting no fragments, they had been looting using a macro, and decided to try looting w/o a mcro, as soon as they stopped the macro they actually started getting loot again. Now it could be just coidence but it is entirely possible the DEV's stelthed in a way to stop afk loot campers.


So for those of you out RIS hunting try straight double clicking to loot instead of using a macro and see if that helps, and if you would report back with any changes in your success.

Tiggs put out a notice a few days ago that AFK people can no longer attack. This is to combat Campers. As for the Loot macro, I have found the same thing on everything..... better to just double click right now.

interesting. Here is a question though - I have a macro that isn't an afk - its just /loot all bound to a button. Is that also affected?
