    1. Can't loot skeletons.
    2. 100%
    3. No.
    4. If I kill a skeleton with something other than magic then I'm not able to loot the corpse for 20 - 25 seconds.
    5. See #4.
    6. Ubuntu 15.10 64 bit, Nvidia GTX 970M, SotA build 361.

    The time delay for looting undead was put into place to accommodate the mage/lich resurrection feature and prevent players from exploiting by looting and despawning undead immediately after death.

    yuck. Some other method should be implemented to solve this problem than this odd delay. I should say I also came upon this - thought to myself oh here is a bug I should report since the new release - reviewed the forums and came across this. This is the sort of thing you want to try to avoid, if already multiple people have considered it a bug it serves that many more will also...

    I agree with drahn; I was just ready to create a new post on this matter when I found this thread. This is pârticularly anoying in place like the graff gem mines for exemple.
    Thx anyway for the explaination.

    Is it possible to remove the delay if all the mages in the vicinity have been killed already?

    I think that you should be able to immediately loot the skeleton and it's corpse should just loiter for an extra half minute. If it gets resurrected, then there'll just be no loot the next time you kill it.
