This thread appears to now be irrelevant as I have had friends run back to highly populated areas to pick up their stuff (including trade able) as long as 25 minutes after dying.

However in the case of some friends, maybe one of two items will be missing.
So say they get there to pick up their fury, dfs, dboots, all that stuff, but their whip will be gone.

Could we get a more updated clarification on the death mechanics?

Why would you change the death timer? Specially when your servers are unable to prevent ddos attacks? I'm really beginning to think jagex enjoys when people loose bank in pvp worlds or when you loose bank pvm'ing. I'm beginning to think jagex wants to continuously push us back in the game so we keep spending our money and valuable time on. Sad to see the lies about old school being community based smh. Cmon jagex keep ******** us over and over again. Lost my ags and toxic staff of the dead this week 75m bank gone due to disconnects. But what help do you offer me? Telling me not to risk in pvp worlds LOL. ANd god knows I ain't gonna do no pvm, I'm not boutta kill 100 monsters for 1m loot with your horrible drop rates. Sad to see this game turn to poop like rs3 did oh well. Gf

Too bad this post is a lie and that is not how they currently work hey ronan. If you die anywhere regardless of if it was from lag or just dying, unless it was in the wilderness to another player you have 30 minutes to grab your stuff and NO ONE else will ever see it. Ever. Doesn't matter if I suicide next to someone with 400m on me. It will never show up to them ever. I can run back and stand around and they won't see it. So if a friend and I go to kbd and he dies, he's gotta run all the way back and loot his stuff because I can't loot it for him. back to rs3 | Curent OS Combat lvl: (

Temporary Death Mechanic Changes

We have made some temporary changes to how death works.If you die outside of PvP any non-tradeable items will appear in your inventory. We have also significantly increased the amount of time your items are available on the floor for you.

It still needs clarification or update the thread to show the correct information.
How long are items available on floor?
Do they show for others after a certain time? (friends could grab items?) or just disappear?

It was nice when you could go bossing with friends & in the unlucky instance you died they could have a chance to help retrieve it for you.
Thank you for some kind of response, additional information is welcome.
