Auto loot nerfed/bugged?

Taking me a couple of clicks and then at least a second before auto-loot functions.

Anyone else?

I’ve been getting that for ages, it isn’t just a TWW issue. I’ve just come to accept it as it doesn’t always happen.

It’s bugged. With or without addons it either doesn’t work, or it works with delay, or the window appears for a split-second and disappears while picking the items, and other times it appears and disappears without picking them up.

I cannot reproduce any of the cases with reliability, it’s entirely random.

game is just laggy and the auto loot code prob not very efficient, same as mailbox opening all button u get error msgs and stuff and sometimes gotta close and reopn the mailbox and to it again

there is some weird bugs like when pressing skills that do damage and it doesnt show animation, autoloot not picking stuff up and over all some skills that miss animation don’t do any damage - check with and without addons for enhc shammy, windwalker monk, Frost DK, Unholy DK and warrior.

about auto loot also maybe its me but it when it pick items they dissapear you have to either log out or log in to see they are in your mail instead

Blizz servers really struggle sometimes. I have sat and watched me spam key pressing abilities for 3-4 seconds sometimes and nothing happens. The ability remains off CD, and yes I verify it is the correct key being pressed. Very often with augment rune rewards, I get one dropped in my bag and the rest I have to manually loot from a loot window. Killing mamy mobs and trying to loot those just leaves the game hanging while it waits for a blizz response. Quite often you have to loot twice to be able to claim your loot.

I have done the recommended checks with WinMTR without seeing any issues. It seems very erratic.

its a latency issue happens with many people in zone and world lag

Also in raids. I have pointed out verbally on discord within raids, that I have taunted for a swap mechanic and I am still trying to taunt, only for nothing to happen for an age. This has happened a few times now.

This has happened to me frequently and worse on my SP my mindflay autocancels after 1 sec of trying to channel it. Makes it feel unsatisfying.

Are you doing old content killing lots at once?

It’s been happening when levelling, happens in dungeons and solo, whether I kill 1 thing or 10.

Yes, the joke is that auto-loot has a 70% chance to work to make it more exciting. :joy:
