It is 2025, and looting is one of the systems that is outdated in WoW. Battle pets can be integrated into looting. So they become more useful. Just let our little friends take the loot and bring to us. There was a similar system for hunters which no one uses today because it is so useless. There is a skill for hunters that when they press it, their hunter pet goes to take the loot, but the stupid thing is, your character must stand still while your pet is doing that, or it stops. Like wtf, who even thought such system should be made. Just mehh.
I’ve never heard of Hunter pets being able to grab loot for you, then again I’ve not played a Hunter for many many many years and only recently remade one last week.
There is also the Loot-a-rang toy, which can be used.
But having a battle pet out to loot for you, everyone will use it, to be honest. But I don’t think it’s needed!
Why is it outdated?
I think one thread was enough to get your point across.
