looting

[Lord David]

battle 1: I(solo lvl6) get attacked by 10 bandits, get knocked out, lose all of my inventry plus food and my horse, fair I lost

battle 2: I(solo lvl6) get attacked by 10 bandits half on horse, I capture all 10 loot 1 sword 2 armor. What give's

In every generation there is born a slayer.

The bandits simply carry less equipment than you, whats wrong with that?

 

[Lord David]

I captured all ten, Bandits have weapons horses armor, how come I didn't get any?

They had them equipped i think, they wont steal your equipped items either i think. If they kill your 30knights they wont get their loot either.

You don't get all their stuff because then one battle could give you enough cash for a spirited charger. You only get a very small portion of their items.

The ability to stay on the battlefield after a battle and do your looting there would be a cool addition. Even better, staying to appreciate your own hard work. and take screenshots of exceptional kills

But then a single victory over a party of dark knights would give you enough money for half a dozen spirited chargers

Armagan already explained this, your soldiers get a certain percentage of the loot, as do B&M

But the idea to stay and play with the fallen enemies (whatever is on your minds, sick bastards!) would be cool. Perhaps, we should also be able to finish the dead enemies: just for fun

 

[Velax]

Finish the dead enemies, eh?

Yeah, but the "problem" comes when you are soloing (like the topic-starter).
I like it this way. If you could loot everything there should be more factors like: If the armor isn't fitting you will more encumbered or you can't carry loads of stuff by yourself.

Finish the dead enemies, eh?

You know, mutilate their bodies and decapitate them with a mighty blow. Then raising their heads in to the air and crying out load "Wraaaghghhh!" (we all know what is the joy and pride of every warrior, don't we ).
But yeah, that would not add very much to the game, and would get boring very fast.

Here's Armagan's explanation of how loot is handled, in case anyone wanted to know the exact formula. 3rd post down.

Most armors and weapows after a battle must be sold as scrap metal. Maybe when we get the item durability feature, who knows...

Everyone expects Orion to come in and say something smart and usefull, right? Here's my two cents.


No Comment.

Many will be just unconcious. Also, you may knock a guy unconcious and, knowing that the battle is hopeless, you just cut his throat. Simply to be evil

Nope... We never expect that
