Item Pick-up When Training?

Is it worth it? Cause like I always go into MP3, or some other training maps and I almost ALWAYS see loads of stuff on the ground, like the person training can't be bothered to pick them up. Why do people do that? I mean, there's perfectly good money and items you can sell for money on the ground. The only reason I see for it is that you don't "waste time" picking up equips. But like...does it really slow you down that much? I've always been picking up drops, sometimes if I'm really bored when I was like level 20 I would go to HHG and just loot for like 5 minutes lolz..... I'm just wondering, cause I hate to see all that stuff go to waste, and also it seems like I train a lot slower than people....but that's probably msotly my equips right? I have no WG, no Zhelm, a 100%d weapon......: (

get a full invt of items so you only pick up money the items ain't worth much and will take up ur invt space fast. Twisted Jesters or Voodoo's/Hoodoo's drop only money and weps so you could go there

Picking up all the items slows down training by alot. Especially in Mp3 where you have to constantly kill (i think?) you can't waste any time picking up mesos. During 8x, i don't even bother with the drops, but i noticed i do get a lot of money from looting

Uh,its on your equips and how fast your weapon is. Only reasons i don't pick is 1,Is 100 mesos per loot really worth it? 2:i have over 200m 3, laggy 4,im usually always on 4x(if i pick up stuff for 1 min,its really 4 mins)

They're snobs, they're lazy, or they don't really care. Whats really annoying is when you pick something up, and they get mad :o.

Well not picking things up makes quite a difference in training speed. With the amount of items that drop and the time it takes to pick them up, you could easily gain a few percent more of experience (depends on your level) if you don't pick up items. And that's the reason why many people invest in pets and item pouches and meso magnets. They can pick up all the items without having to pick them up themselves, thus getting the extra experience per hour AND all the drops they find.

Where do mesos come from in the first place? from G's who pick them up.

It slows down your training if you pick them up. Not that much, but significantly. I generally only pick up valuable drops (equip drops, valuable etc items, etc). That doesn't take long at all, and you still make a little money.
