Item Collector
I would like to suggest a Debris Collecting item.
Uses: To drag debris near the ship. (Specified for debris ONLY)
To offset some problems it may cause, consider the following. On use of the Item the user will receive the following stats
Engine shutdown Weapons lock Damage Resistance -20%

Re: Item Collector
Flying around in a DG scooping crap that may not even be any good is not fun for any class. Yes to anything that makes DGing less boring and tedious.

Re: Item Collector
Like the old fake explosives devices they sold? A guy blew up a whole bulk's worth in sol once. Now that they have concussions it's pretty easy just to add a negative number, right?
That being said, I though this is what tractor beams are for? At least that's what I've always seen them used for.

Re: Item Collector
Been suggested many times before I believe, and I've always liked it.
Anything that will help me scoop magcannon IX after magcannon IX just a little bit faster...
ooh, there was variation - a modded magcannon IX! Go DF 400!

Aww, but I love seeing people just tractor stuff. All like "cba to scoop". It's sweet.
Yeah, I see your point. Can't even ap to your loot anymore. <shifty eyes> But this could be abused if [blah blah arbitrary reason here]. How would we prevent [blah blah blah mechanic] from being abused?

You're in a dungeon with your team of doing an uber or both. Some guy just decides that all the loot is his, no sharing. And don't even say kill him to get it back. That's not possible anymore.

Re: Item Collector
Obviously it would only work on debris that you can scoop.

Re: Item Collector
Because there's a 5 second grace period where the other person could use their item collector.
