[ACCEPTED]Increase looting speed, King of Greed pet

[Dianmir]

Players have complained about the looting speed of King of Greed, saying it is the same as Phobitan, Cockatrice and Capybara Leader Pets.
I have looked into the files and all I can say is, what we currently have is official behaviour.

So the looting speed of King of Greed is as it should be.
Now I do remember myself that this didn't use to be like this in the past and players also suggested to bring back old behaviour.
Old behaviour means that King of Greed loots faster.

I kindly ask players to give their opinion about this, I don't see a reason against this change.

Please do this change. It is needed for a 2x drop server. All my drops kept disappearing while i was AFKing in Viron due to the fast spawn/drop rates

 

[AetherFaust]

Please make it faster if possible, the amount of extra loot the game drops (pure ores/beef/royal jelly's) makes the looter pet fail to loot the more important drops and let it expire (equipments, AP Points).

Faster it picks up, more people will use it

 

[Dianmir]

This suggestion has been accepted. The looting speed of King of Greed will be increased to match the increased price versus Capybara Leader, Phobitan and Cockatrice. You can read on upcoming patchnotes when this change will take effect.

From my personal testing on this, with another family on the other side with a Pigling.
I can certainly say that KOG Pet isn't as fast as we were expecting it to be; Both KOG and Pigling looted an item at the same time, and re-targeting and movement speed of them both seems to be about the same, if any KOG seems to be minutely faster, but not noticeable at all.
Aside from costing 500 Tokens, and provides no additional buffs, the only benefit that I saw from it is it's loot range (Which wont benefit much since we don't have a custom script Keep mode). Apart from that, Cockatrice/Phob/Capy is much beneficial as a loot pet.

Hi, sorry but your experiences don't match with the actual numbers, I am willing to put actual file here that handles this.
Also keep in mind that all mentioned pets are obtainable from playing and not just Cash Shop.

King of Greed is 44% faster when it comes to checking the nearest lootable item. (=2160/1500-1)

Cockatrice/Capybara/Phobitan	King of Greed
var item = FindNearestPickableItem(self, ownercommander, 1500);	var item = FindNearestPickableItem(self, ownercommander, 2160);

I appreciate the clarification.
I may have expected it to be much faster provided with the speed increased being mentioned.

Nevertheless, it is working as it should.
I digress, please continue with the awesome update/patch that you are working on.

Well I understand where your concern is coming from.
Game should have actual numbers in terms of looting speed inbuilt so things are clear to players.

I will update the documentation about this so it actually mentions the 44%.
