Vyse, as far as the looting goes, when im killing mobs and farming and what not, i open my backpack and drop it to the right hand corner of my screen. Theres a button on the top right of almost all GUI windows that should say sticky, when you mouse over it. If you click on that, then when you right click you backback will stay open. It makes for one or 2 less clicks when your fighting.

STUBS!
