My loot is being deleted on death

Running into an issue where all my loot is being deleted in a zone if I die and respawn at a check point in that area.

It's at the point I'm not sure if it's intended or not. Personally I really dislike this feature and I also dislike the fact mobs respawn when you die. If they recover full HP sure, but do I really have to kill them again !?

Just had a unique get deleted, boss died to my DoT while I was dead. Everything deleted except the item that gave me permanent spirit specific to that boss. So there is a way to not delete the loot. This is the most frustrating thing I have found in a game in a very long time.

it is intended :D , yeah was really suprice first but then i remember what Jonathan said :D aboit loot on one stream :D

Yeah, I really feel it shouldn't be this way.

I've died twice to the boss's minions after it died because I was trying to inspect the loot and didn't notice the larvae.

I agree, dropping the loot and then deleting it feels wrong.

+1 for not liking this mechanic.

I died to a poison puddle I couldn't see after I killed a boss when admiring all the drops. If you're going to take away the loot (except the skill gem), let me kill the boss again for another chance at good loot.

I don't mind if monsters respawn on death, but loot should stay on the ground...

I would like to this. I beat the Act 1 boss but died to effects he had already started. Due to that I didn't get the loot but the game thought I won. I certainly didn't feel like I won.

I would have preferred to have fight the boss again rather than the situation that did happen. This just felt bad and not fun.

If this is intended i wont be playin this game for long.

Worst mechanic I've ever run into in an ARPG and I wish that wasn't hyperbole.
