@autoloot and @alootid commands

The age of afk farming has begun.

Cool update for new peeps at least.

I am aware that this can be a problem.

This is what we are working on. When you go afk you will no longer be able to get items, just like with EXP.

As far as WS's not being useful, the problem is that you were forced to use them.
I plan on adding items to the forging list in the near future.
I also plan on opening a discussion on backpack, so that we can have some options.  Like possibly having auto loot only work on rare item while we have the backpack for Greed effect.

In the end I felt that this was a much needed change to bring in new players.
We need to adapt improvise and overcome. Without doing those things we will die!
I have played many servers and heard about several that offer many things I wish ARO had, I'm talking successful servers that slowly added the things the majority of the players wanted and in the end the results were amazing!

Right on; was hoping there'd be some way of limiting that exploitation.

To me, this is a cool thing.  I understand it gets a luke-warm reception, but when other servers feature it and we do not, then it is a giant problem.  Here is to a positive future for anesisro!!!!

Just a question will it really be that big of an exploit?  I mean I can see how it seems it could be abused, but you aren't going to make nearly the money you would actually farming it.  Now I get the part where your afk doing absolutely nothing but what about an alchemist leveling his homunc?  The best way to level him is pretty much to sit there and do nothing does that mean he as well can not collect the loots or will it be fine for that cause people will gripe either way.  In my own opinion on the matter every time someone gripes about these changes it makes someone lose interest in the game and I'd rather a hundred noobs make 1 billion zeny and the server population actually grow then to see it go down cause of the grind.  Lets face it we have so many MOBA games that give the same effect as a 1 year term at least on RO, in literally an hour.

Yea, making money afk would be seen as an exploit in most peoples' eyes.

As for alchemist; I'd believe that's the.. easiest way to level. Best might be taking it too far as far as exp/time goes.

I'd assume they'd either have to get up from their lazyboy from watching MTV, go click the mouse once evert (insert time here for refreshing autoloot limitation), then go back to their lazyboy. (Which I bet is what quite a few people will be doing.. w/ multiple clients running).

Orrrr alchemist gets a break since most will lvl afk, won't have any limitation on autoloot.. thus we'll see a lot of alchemist's afk in various dungeons all over the place.

I'm not against autoloot.. i just expect some tom-foolery to happen lmao.

Well I went and tested it as soon as the exp goes away from being afk so does autoloot and the second you break the afk exp the autoloot picks right back up.  So it's not broken because you can't afk at all to do it so you still have to do the old fashion farming anyways.

This is really what I came back to. I don't know if I can play with this being added. Hopefully this will bring new players but I will not be a part of it sadly.
