I am having a lot of  loot NOT showing up now after patch 5. Outside of Gates of Toth , kill the giant, no loot, Giant just stands there, then poofs away. Mobs of Phoenix, no loot, In Fallow Mire, no loot from mob of BAd guys by all the cabins.  In Emerald Graves above Direstone camp, where all the giants are, no loot, again its with Giants.  Anyone else having these type of issues?

I think they tried to fix some loot trick/exploit/bug with the amulet of power, and replenishing loot generally...whatever you want to call it. That might have caused other problems with the loot system...maybe they might fix this, maybe not. We'll have to see.

I haven't experienced this. 

 

Been playing my new warrior and everything seems to be showing up correctly.

I had a giant drop nothing but 11 gold and some cloth. They wanted so desperately to stop people from exploiting, they ended up making things worse. No more Power Amulets looting, though I have heard the War Table amulets are still there.

I have encountered a couple of new bugs never experienced before. The whole thing is a mess, tbh.

Same here, Giants used to drop plenty of loot, now they only drop like two things.

Its not just the Giants not dropping loot. the Bog Fishers in Fallow Mire, the undead in Fallow Mire, none are dropping anything. SO I go to another area, like Emerald Graves and get maybe 12 gold off one Templar in a group of 3. The other 2 aren't dropping anything. At least let me skin them and use the Templar skin for leather.

I've actually had problems with the lower levels - such as nugs, fenecs and other animals not dropping anything; it can sometimes take 12 - 20 kills before any of them drop the skins / pelts / etc.

Gurguts in Exalted Plains where the dragon is, not dropping skins or loot now for me.

I've now just come across issues in the Graves; sealed a rift and killed all the demons, but the characters were sticking and the combat status was still showing - then when it stopped, I went to collect the loot and it disappeared but gave me nothing, same when I tried to collect some Embrium and a bear skin. T_T

I had this happen in the hissing wastes. Fighting a group of venitori, we all went into slo-mo combat near the end. (Too much special effects popping off maybe?) I tried to loot, the bags disappeared and got nothing. Stood around a few minutes so the game could realize I'm no longer in combat and the loot bags reappeared at my feet. (3 of them) I looted and all were empty. bah

Uh just curious, but those of you that are experiencing this are you playing new characters made AFTER patch 5 or characters that existed BEFORE patch 5? 

 

 

I downloaded patch 5 and then made my Warrior. I have been slaving away on him and have experienced no loot issues so far. I even killed the Giant on the Storm Coast and he dropped the roughly same amount of loot that Giants always have. 

 

 

I ask because I am obviously wondering if it has only affected existing playthroughs or its simply a hit or miss issue.

New character after fully patched. I won't even try old characters, too much could go south methinks.

 

It's just random when it kicks in I think. I also noticed missing several amulets of powers in places/quests I know they were loot. Now they are gone. Dragon loot, valamarr for Varric etc.

 

Also my auto-attack is not working correctly. Might as well not have it since it doesn't even want to stay functional in a single battle. REALLY disappointed in this. sigh

Amulets of power are a different bug (they did something that removed almost all of the ones you're supposed to get from loot).

The giant in the Forbidden Oasis drops the same loot it always did with an in-progress game for me, so I'd think this is an intentional change or an issue with certain enemies or areas, not a general issue (and some of the stuff just sounds like normal RNG).

Has to be hit or miss then. 

 

I have had no issues whatsoever. Finding amulets in all the usual spots and loot is dropping as often as it ever did.

You'll notice the missing amulets as you move on.

The amulets you get as rewards (from quests or the war table) are still gifted correctly, but most of the ones that are static loot can't be acquired anymore (there are a few that still show up, however).

I've alternated -  one character made before, and one made after - and I'm seeing these problems on both T_T

Just popped over to Emerald Graves, killed 3 Giants and 3 Great Bears in my game that was begun before patch 5 and found the usual loot.

 

I am just not getting the Amulets of Power that are being reported by many others.

Seems so. My character was already made and was residing at Skyhold when the patch was installed.

I am working on the same character I had before patch 5. But these issues of no loot were NOT happening to me before.

Great job bioware. Try to fix something that doesn't need to be fixed and end up screwing everything up. Good for you.

It's possible patch 5 requires a new game to "start fresh", so to speak . Especially if certain changes affected the file record structure.

 

Were you guys able to apply patch 5 and load a pre-patch 5 file save? did that then result in these problems?

 

Just asking
