So, about Zakum and Skillbooks - Satellite - 2010-11-27

Before when I was Zakuming with my guild, I was told that nowadays all skillbooks will be in corner I should avoid looting books of others.

Yah, I haven't zakumed a lot, because really... almost no1 in Yellonde has runs that are during reasonable time for European like me.

Now the question is, How am I supposed to know which books I loot, when all of them are one on the other...? Besides, as an Aran, I need TON of skillbooks from Zakum, I don't wanna loot untradeable skillbooks of others =(

When they are piled in the corner you can't know.
We try not to have more than one book looter per run, for this reason.

That's messed up...

I wonder if I can ever get my Aran books. But it shoudl be piece of cake to normal zakum after BB right? I mean... Mechanic solos it in 3mins

Judging by the one zakum kill I know of in Tespia, the piles-in-the-corners problem will no longer be there after BB.
Only one skillbook dropped, in plain view.

Not sure that's a better situation...

As for "piece of cake" - it already is, since potential.
See http://www.southperry.net/showthread.php?t=34074 for "mere" Adventurers soloing Zakum in minutes, pre BB.
The level 200 Paladin who did it in Tespia took 3 hours, post BB.
It's all in the gear (and the skills being maxed).
