Why is so much loot not usable for so many levels?

[Cossatot]

It seems like I end up with a bunch of loot that I won't be able to use for 10, 15 and sometimes 20 levels.

Is there some work around to using these things before I get to those levels?
Or are we just supposed to hold on to it and patiently wait?

Loot cleanup will be in next patch) lets hope

God, I hope it's fixed soon.

I cant believe I spent days scouring the auctions and spending all the Db I had saved up just to buy what could be found easily in a few hours of os combat.

Why anyone would design an mmo that drops player made goods from basic low level trash mobs is beyond my understanding.

A lot of the drops are crap, but a lot are good to, probably was only ever intended for players way back when game first started to help players get going. A lot of mods etc was really hard to get hold of way back then, I guess they just never got around to cleaning it up.

FLS have said they intend to clean it all up soon though.

Do you have a link?

Only loot drops that annoy me are mast sections and that is because of their weight. Loot you can't use can be stored in a warehouse or sold/junked.

[Storm Hunter]

No link , but I remember they said its next.

Thankfully there are several solutions to this perturbing dilemma which are extant:

A.) If collecting loot solo; delete unwanted items from your inventory.

B.) If collecting loot in a group; pass on unwanted items, or see option A.

C.) Pay someone in Thailand to do the gaming for you and just lay in bed all day long.

I have just been sticking things in the warehouse.

I am gathering a collection of frigates. In just 34 more levels I'll be able to sail the Conquistador sleek.
More guns and bigger guns than my corvette by far.
