Looting is the act of attacking a non-player character (NPC) in order to be rewarded with loot - special items, such as clothing and weaponry, only obtainable via this method.
Mechanics
NPCs that are available to loot will have a loot level associated with them, that can range between 1 and 5. A higher loot level means that more players will receive loot once the NPC is defeated, as well as more rare items become available. Every time an NPC is defeated, this level is reset to 1, and will increase after 30, 90, 210 and 450 minutes if they remain undefeated for this time. An NPCs current loot level will display on their status (e.g. "Okay, Loot level III").
Loot is awarded based on a lottery style system. The more effort a player puts in to defeating the NPC, the more likely they will be to receive loot. It is not necessary to be in the attack at the exact moment the NPC is defeated (i.e. you can stalemate before the NPC is put in hospital, and still receive loot).

There are currently three lootable NPCs:
- Duke [4] with 1,500,000 HP
