How about making a feature so there is a 10 second wait time for all drops before it can be picked up by someone other than a person in the party who killed the monster (this doesn't apply to bosses like balroc, etc). Say I'm hunting yeti bones and I'm busy killing and don't have time to pick up the bones 'cause i'm getting hit then some high level running to vd runs by an just steals the bone. Or I drop an item by accent and someone picks it up before I can pick it again. It'd make the game more noob-friendly.

Again with the RuneScape stuff; the person who killed most of the HP of a monster would usually get the drop :p

but then it's not fair to warriors and priests who tank but don't dish out as much damage. It'd be good if the same timer was set on all members of the party.

Skin requirements are a totally different topic, please stay on the drop topic as described in the topicstarters post.

i think too much work than its worth, this will also throw off Abyss, Undead, and Big Maze. just cause your strong you make more dmg on balrog, you get all the legends, and now i was strong, now im stronger
i really dont think drop looting is a problem, and yetis only hit 400s max, with their ice ball = =
