If you are in a party, it is possible a party member picked them up, and you received them due to party loot sharing options.

i think that cards should be autolooted, like the reward that the mvp takes, also the items with veryyyyyyyyyyyy low rate, becouse bots and monsters like poporings have eaten my cards or helms(angelic feather once) also i still with the idea of locking items by the choice of the user, that will prevent hack and mistakes of selling a item by mistake with a npc ( i lost a valk shield in that way XC)

no autolooting cards
it can and will kill the economy

my old server had autoloot, and someone got a dark lord card
they then farmed hydra cards all day and night with it (while afk)
he got so much money from that he basically controlled our economy

i know that there is so much zeny out there and several cards like this so it wont exactly have the same effect

but it would still be a legal way to "bot"

Sometimes when a bunch of loots dropped and you're in a hurry to the next mob 'cause you're close to a level up, you miss things like that. I remember being surprised to find myself having a card after a round of leveling.

There is no Auto-loot on RO.

As Heimdallr said, if you were in a party, and the party loot was set to be shared, and your party members picked up the cards, they could have gone to you through party loot share.

If you were not in a party, you must have picked them up without noticing.

its supposed to be a lower drop rate if the monster too high or too low for your character
but that feature has been off for about a month, and there has been no announcement for when it will be turned back on

so as of right now, your wizard will have the normal drop rate of cards (0.02% or 0.03% if VIP)

thiefs are still good for hunting items. With high DEX you can use steal to get 2 items per monster. This isn't great for mobs, but it's perfect for hunting things like pricky fruits and mandragora flower pots.

... thought that a rate that low can be stolen, but not cards. like a 0.01 can be stolen from monster but not the 8th card slot at 0.01% btw.... why not make cards autoloot?

Might the auto looting cards thing happen with a homunculus too? I would of thought that would be the bigger problem.

that and anything else that allows you to kill monsters while afk would cause problems.

basically allowing autoloot for cards will allow people to farm any aggro monster that they can easily tank while afk.
people could leave their characters there for weeks on end. it would flood the market with cards.

in valk it might not be as bad cause the bots there already kinda do that.

but on ymir with much fewer bots, it would be catastrophic

People are already doing that.

Magnolia hat has a chance to proc Greed. Put on some autocast equips/cards and you're good to go. Great for farming blank cards, etc. You can see people doing it in Orc Dungeon 1 for example.

ive never seen anyone doing that
but what is the chance of casting greed?
it cant be high
really what are the chances that a card would drop and then that they would cast greed in the next 30 seconds or so before it disappears?
pretty unlikely

I don't know about now, but long back in the day you'll get an auto loot every time you kill a boss monster.

i've seen an AB doing the greed thing in OD. put on a loli armor, RoR+RoFL and magnolia hat and you can leave your char there for weeks, since autocast does not require sp.
