Is when you kill someone and their bag falls behind a shop sign and you can't pick it up.

There that feels better.

You and several other people. It's worse when you kill someone who drops a quest item and their bag falls behind a torch and you can't pick it up.

Then don't kill any more shopkeepers or people walking by on the street, man. (Unless you have to.) Eschalon is a tough place to live, and tougher to govern. Help make Eschalon a better place: be nice! :)

To the point: what do they call somebody in real life who goes around your city killing innocent shopkeepers and passersby?
Certainty: a character-driven, literary, turn-based mini-CRPG in which Vasek, legendary "Wandering Philosopher", seeks certainties in a cryptically insular, organic, critically layered city.

Yes - it's already been reported as a bug.

I don't think the ultimate 'fix' for this will come before Book III (because this seems to be a true 'game engine' issue...). But I think there are some 'map tricks' BW can engineer in the meantime to mostly prevent this from happening...

They're not so innocent - have you seen what they charge for an ancient dragonskin skullcap?

Yes! It's way less than what it's worth.
