So I just went up to sky and killed Zip as a few people in my social LS still need stuff from Kirin etc.

Killed Zip...and he dropped nothing...
(Forgive my failure to link the images i'm a forum noob..)

Fixed.

It won't drop if everyone in the group has one already.

Thanks lol :P

And I thought that's wrong? Because while skilling up in Kuftal I get multiple coffer keys...they're just instantly lost when they drop since I already have?

Only 120 experience? What the hell is wrong with zip?

Usable items will drop no matter what (coffer keys etc). Anything else will not drop if everyone has it. On that note, if everyone had it, why were you killing it in the first place? Nobody could have lotted it even if it did drop :O

Goth and Yuna didn't have it.

Isn't a pop item technically a usable item? Not like a ra/ex peice of gear...

They weren't in the same zone though, so even if both gems had dropped, they would've been lost instantly.

It doesn't count as a "usable item", it counts as a "normal" item (not equipment, not meds, not quest stuff). You just happen to trade it for it to pop something.

It's not good enough to just have someone in the zone and in the party without the item, they have to be on the hate list as well. That's how I went 1/2 on Ungur Boomerang.

Interesting... We've invited someone to lot Atheling Mantle because we all had who only just zoned in and that still dropped.

I guess it makes sense. Would have been more satisfying to see it instantly lost than not at all though >_> Wouldn't have had to waste my time with the GM and his obsession for Zip's exp...

Rare items won't drop in pool if everyone in zone owns one. Joyeuse won't appear in pool if everyone has one, etc. Dunno about keys.
