Pick Pocket and lootingSun, 29. Jan. 2012 09:01 GMT

It seems like there's either a bug going on, or blizzard just nerfed the loot benefit from pick pocketing for rogues?

If I pickpocket a mob (witch I allways do, because of macros) and kill it afterwards (witch I allways do, because I'm a rogue), there's no loot on the corpse! I discovored this while farming a low-lvl quest item in Hinterlands for a long time, killing a huge amount of mobs, and every single mob I pick pocketed had no loot!! I then tried not to stealth and just spam fan of knives - thus no pick pocket - and then I could loot the mobs..

Next day, I went to Icecrown to farm Champion's Seals. In one of the quests you need keys from mobs to rescue dudes in cages. I had the same loot vs. pick pocket issue again! But the keys (as well as cloth and greens) was looted while pick pocketing, so I could complete the quest without getting kill-loot.

So it looks like it's intended... I just find it very not cool:( It's not like the loot from the pick pocket made a significant profit, it just made the rogue feel like a rogue!!

Please let it be a bug!!! - and please fix it!;)

Hi there, Raghul.

I think you've just been subject to some bad luck. Pick pocketing and normal looting are not mutually exclusive; you can do both, but please remember that in both cases there is chance that you will get nothing. Mobs won't always drop something. :)
