The fact that you can still discard a locked item is scary. Make it so you have to unlock an item for it to either be salvaged or discarded.

Agreed. I threw away an idea i spent 50k on because of this by mistake.

big time. if it’s locked it should be locked to you unless you unlock.
inventory management needs some big QOL tweaks over all imo

Made a post about this in June. It was responded to by a CM, still not in the game yet.

Mass Salvaging and the UI bugging causing an equipped/locked item to drop has been an issue since launch but seems to be worse lately due to desync
Dear AGS; Locked items should not be droppable
This game has bugs around salvaging which can cause equipped/locked gear to be discarded.
This has been a big issue since launch.
If the intent of salvage locking is ultimately to prevent irreversible destruction of an item then it should also prevent discarding items on the ground.
When quickly salvaging items, in particular during a chest run, it is possible to accidentally click the context menu option discard item. Additionally there are times when the storage shed does not open quickly enough and it is possible to drop an item on the ground.
Please consider extending the salvage lock, renaming it to “Lock item” and …
Yesterday I dropped my Voidbend gloves on accident… Why is it even possible to drop locked items. There should be a notification or something if you drop legendary items. I dont know where or when it happend. I just throw items at my charakter to equip it and I think i dropped it like that. Would be nice if AGS adds a notification or just make locked items not droppable.
This is half a bug report , half a suggestion.
Some people can relate to that topic because it affected them too.

I don’t use the forums but I’d like to leave a suggestion.
Can we prevent items from being able to drop when they’re locked? Currently you can’t salvage locked items but they should also be not able to drop on the ground to prevent mistakes.
I’m sure this simple change will make the feature a lot better.

This shouldn’t be possible as they should be protected!

Hello, i contacted support on the website and they told me that i have to make a post on a forum. Soo during today’s elite run i dropped my bis healer chest, the item was locked. Is there posibility i could get it back?

I had Blade of the 19th in my inventory and I believe it dropped while i was salvaging (I think this is a bug) and is no longer there. I didnt notice until it was too late, and double checked my town storages to make sure. Is there any way to recover it?
Thanks
Disables the drop function of locked items.
When you lock an item it should not be throwable out of the inventory that makes no sense to me.
Afternoon- A day ago, in the haste of clearing my inventory while on a chest run, I accidentally dropped one of my locked pieces of gear. I submitted an online ticket that day and now just got it back in my inventory. I did not expect to get it back so quickly if I was able to get it back at all. I definitely want to thank the team for that.
I also want to point out that locking an item doesn’t prevent it from being accidentally dropped/discarded on the ground. If possible, I’d like to request…
Apparently… After having had my tanking sword vanish mysteriously. I have tested, and noticed that when salvaging it is possible to drop locked items.
Locked items should be blocked from being dropped while locked. This would prevent others from also having to replace gear, that could possibly be lost accidently, while salvaging on the move, if you do not notice the dropped bag.
Sorry for the late edit, but after reading the first post, I thought I may have suffered a stroke it was so poorly w…

Hello all,
I am actually a NW believer.
Even despite the lack of quality, I trust that it can become a great game… in far future.
The experience I had on the this week to be honest more and more convinces me to wait for this future and play something else until the dev team becomes mature.
I would not say about mess with Dynasty, orbs and mutators rotation.
Everybody experiences this.
My case is quite a different.

This has happened to me and I have heard others talk about it too (more so lately) but AGS, can you make items you have “locked” to not be dropable also? You can’t salvaged/sell locked items which is perfect but can you also make it preventable from dropping?
When I do chest runs I spam drop all the greens and stuff and I know it is MY own fault but figured I would ask for this request just so it can help prevent this. I haven’t lost anything major (a Sol hatchet but had 2 of them) but there …
If you shift + left click an item, it will be dropped on the ground. Sure, let it be a thing.
BUT
There is absolutely no reason that a LOCKED item should be able to be dropped on the ground with a shift + left click. What is the actual point of locking an item if it can still be dropped???
There I was switching builds from mage to bruiser for opr right before the match to better assist my team and before I knew; it was too late my fire staff (flame attunement, vicious, empowering fireball) for what ever reason had disappeared and so I scrambled through my storage in search for this staff to no avail it was gone.

Had a weapon called “Dark Sky” which I used in war but the following day It disappeared. I know I didn’t salvage it because I had it locked and used it in war but now I cant find it anywhere. Any way to get the weapon back? Was not cheap to make.
What do we all do with our items we spent lots of Umbral Shards in to upgrade? Sure, we lock them. So we can’t accidentally sell them. Or accidentally salvage them. In the first case the item won’t show up in you auction house sales UI. In the latter you don’t see the salvage option in the context menu at all. Even if you unlock it, game will ask you if you really want to destroy a legendary item.
But. Try dropping a 625GS item that you also locked. This will probably not be possible like you c…

Hi, i want to start this post with an appreciation: AGS actually recovered me an item today that i had accidentally dropped to the ground while scrapping items after a m10.
I didn’t notice at the beginning that i dropped the item. A few hours later, i noticed that a piece of my armor was missing from my build. I reached out AGS and they gave me the item back after 7d.
Now, why don’t we just make sure no one will ever be as reta**ed as me to drop to the groud the item and avoid it completely?

Let me start by first explaining why I’ve come here to make this suggestion.
I was auto-running in Reekwater, I also had my inventory open, so I could swap to my Mining Gear as I approached the new northern-most Orichalcum node area. I got attacked by some nearby Angry Earth and my Inventory closed.
I went about my business mining whatever was there.
A while later after I had returned to town I was placing my…
I had all but the the Weaver’s shoes. Logged in today and is all gone. That shit is pricey and hard to come by. Anyone else having this issue? How do I go about getting these missing items back???
hello team,
It would be great to not allow locked items to be dropped (the same as they can’t be salvaged)
it’s the second time I drop my amulet accidentally by swapping gears (sigh that we still have to swap gears one by one), cuz the game can be laggy, delayed
one example: when you open your storage in town, if it’s laggy and you start to store your items they will go directly on the floor and not in the storage,
swap gear while running if you press shift by accident … the same
