Right so I suggest that there should be items like "goblin ear" on dead goblins. And so on for everything else. Or most things. Not on scripted quests though. It would be great for ways to people to expand plots. Such as "Jimmy give me 100 goblin ears and I'll accept you into my group" etc. And bounties perhaps.

Add it pls. (and add shovels. Pls)

It'd definitely open up a lot of possibilities, but the problem might be the considerable lag created by that.

I wonder, though, if you could make it store the amount in integer format on the Character Token somehow for such purposes.

This might also provide a cool method for rangers to unlock cool new features by hunting their favored enemy.

These items will 99% of the time just be left on the dead monster, and add to the lag that we all love. I am defenatly aginst this.

Why not add an item that harvest's these items?

Yet agien you need the bodies of the dead monsters to remain after death. this will make a mess out of things. Do 99% of the players even bother picking up what monsters leaves now? I dont think so. Personaly I have never picked up ourc teeth, or animal guts or the likes.

But they are key ingredients for herbalism. If someone was paying 10 gold per goblin ear, would you pick up the goblin ears? I know I would. There's much more good things that could ever come out of this than bad. Except for maybe lag. But it's mostly to further plots. Give people tasks to join your gang in the docks. And sure. If you could put it on a player tool to use against the dead goblin. That would be better. But it would be the same as guts. Some people will pluck them off some people won't. If the only thing making you disagree with this is because of lag. Then I think that it still seems fine

You could always RP it out. It doesn't seem feasible to me right now.

I have to say OH PLEASE NO. I remember when every basic nightriser dropped 1 Skeleton's Knuckle guaranteed. it would lag Longest Night ridiculously with all the bodies. Orcs pretty much all drop Orc teeth, alchemists/herbalists are always asking about them, and still people leave them

This can be redemied by a global command /c pickup all Orc teeth in the area - A command that automatically loots all orc teeth in the area from all corpses. This way, lazy people could instantly pick up all teeth without puzzling with their inventory. It should be followed by a command that allows you to instantly put all orc teeth in your inventory on the barter screen.
