Let's face it, since the wild came back, Looting's been on the rise.

And I mean excessively - there are CCs dedicated to it.

You get 10+ looters at even the mid-sized clan's wars.

It was never this bad, even in 2007.

 

I and many friends are pro-loot - I find it enjoyable to be honest.

I make a good 10-20 sets a night, so it funds my actual wars.

But I see it as a skill in itself, and one of the few things I like in RS nowadays.

 

However, I have several anti-loot friends, who have some good points too.

Some say looters rely on other clans for finances rather than "working" for money.

Others say we didn't fight for the kills, so we don't deserve the profits.

 

What are your thoughts TIF?

What is looting?

I don't mind looting when it's occasional and random. For example, say Player A killed Player B, but A had to tele because he was out of food and didn't want to risk it. Then a group of people stand on B's dead body and wait for loot to appear.

 

Compared to for example, when people spammed the familiar respawn thing to make it almost impossible for players to pick up drops, then loot the stuff after a minute.

 

You're talking about f2p clan wars, I used to loot those all the time on my pure, it was a good way to sustain myself. :wink:

What is looting?

 

When clans have official wars/run-ins in the wilderness, they don't usually pick up the armour/items of the people they've killed.

So, to make easy bank, looters are people who go up and take the stuff for themselves.

You can make a good 1-2m in rune from every war you loot, if you do it right.
