#Heirlooms Should Spawn At Your Feet

Both types of heirloom bounties eventually spawn a unique treasure item (the heirloom) in your room, which you are expected to immediately pick up and store in order to carry back to the guard.

Since the heirloom is dropped in your room, it is possible for another player to pick it up immediately after the heirloom appears. This can be especially problematic for search bounties, since you will always be in roundtime when the heirloom appears.

I think it would be an improvement to make the heirloom spawn in your "at feet" slot rather than generally on the ground. This would admittedly cut down on one kind of player interaction, but to be frank, I don't think it is a very interesting kind.

Thirded. With an addendum that if you're searching in the confluence (and possibly other areas with area effects) that the heirloom could be blown away while you're in roundtime. I have had this happen to me and the paths reset/layout shift before I got out of roundtime and never found it again.

Absolutely co-signed. Nobody else should be able to pick up your heirloom.

To stop it from being blown away. I've had it get blown away before. And the room layout shifted before I got out of RT from finding it. So I had to remove the bounty.

Do items at FEET travel with you if you use 130/225/220/etc?

I had no idea so I went to test it and the answer is yes.

You retrieve a pale gold linden flower from one of the concealed pockets lining your white flyrsilk toqua.
>place feet flower
You carefully place your gold linden flower on the ground alongside you.
>incant 130
You whisper a short prayer of gratitude to Marlu before incanting the words for Spirit Guide...
Your spell is ready.
You gesture.
Your surroundings blur for a moment . . .

>i
You are wearing (stuff).

Placed alongside you is a pale gold linden flower.```

I think the only challenge with this heirloom feet idea is that I THINK that if you have an item at your feet you can’t move. If you were fighting a group, found the heirloom, but are getting beat up and need to exit and don’t want to put away weapon to grab heirloom, you might get stuck.

Some might not love a mechanic that prevents movement.
