Need a Loot Break after a Siege

Hey Devs,

How about a 1-3 minute break at the conclusion of a siege so we can loot items, check our siege rating, load our guns, catch our breath, etc.? As it stands right now, as soon as the siege ends all loot disappears and we get dumped immediately into a conflict site. I typically stop shooting with about 3 minutes left in the siege and just spend my time running around and around looking for loot drops and getting to the fringe of the siege area so I can avoid getting shot up the instant the siege ends and the conflict site begins. Not fun at all.

Indeed, they give people a whole freaking minute to spend one key at the lockbox after an Arkfall, they could give us some time to pick stuff up after a siege.

Just make a lockbox at the end of sieges as well, problem solved.

Please no, I don't buy the ark keys and don't want to spend money trying to get loot from a siege.

You still get any loot you get now, it's just a bonus.

So all the loot that drops during a siege is now placed inside a box that can be opened at the end without the use of a key is what you're saying? Is that the idea?

No.
You still get the rewards you get now.
The box is there on a timer. you have from the moment a siege ends until the moment the timer runs out to run all over the siege area scooping up your loot drops.
If you dont want to - you dont have to.
You don't have to spend a key on the lock box if you don't want to - thats a completely separate deal.

The only reason for the box is the timer, and the timer gives you a break to do what you need to do.
A completely separate pile of loot in the box is for sale, the price is the key, and you don't have to buy anything.

No, it's the same as arkfall: all drops are still on the ground, but you get an additional "minimum blue rarity" box which you can open. And because the box will be there for a minute, it also means there'll be a minute to pick loot off the ground.

This would be fine and dandy if there were any loot to pick after the siege ends.
It´s bugged and Trion needs to fix it, loot can´t disappear immediately after the event ends, and the same for the mission that takes places there, can´t start also immediately after the siege ends.
That´s what the OP is saying.

I try to pick up items as I go,BEFORE I DC. Happened too many
times lately. I haven't bought keys and I got hold of one and I don't
know how or why?

Why do we have to pick up loot off the ground anyway? Can't there be a proximity autoloot for everything? Give everyone an overflow bag that dumps stuff after a couple of days if you don't make room to claim it, etc. Kinda like Oldefiance.

Yes, and the loot disappears because the next event started. Making a lootbox timer prevents the next event starting for a minute.

I wonder why after an event ends do other things need to pop in
before you can leave the area. Kenn farms & Serenity are perfect examples
can't even see if there's anything on the ground or leave and they change
immediately after.

Lots of loot falls in places you aren't standing when you kill the badguy.
Sometimes a guy you were shooting at gets killed by someone else in an area you dont see, or aren't in at the time.
