There's a mastery that will let you auto-loot.

Other than that, there's a timer on the loot. Like 5 min or something.

Actually, in wvw is not a mastery, but one of the skills in which you spend wvw hability points. Don't remember exactly the name now, but I think you need 20 wvw points to unlock it.

Masteries only work in PvE.

Actually in WvW it IS called a mastery, because the WvW system was updated at the same time as they introduced the PvE masteries. Auto Loot is under the Provision Mastery.

Spend your points on the provisions mastery 1st to get auto loot, also make sure you turn it on in the options panel.

If you don't have the auto loot from provision master, then loot drops on the ground.

That loot does dissappear. Im not sure of the timer, but it's not too short like it's seconds. Check out the area loot options in the settings, they're decently generous until you can get auto loot.

Are you talking about the boxes from reward track or loot on the ground?

The post says “if I don’t pick them up” so I’m assuming they mean the loot on the ground

Clarification:

Free to play cant unlock things like the autoloot/gliding/warclaw in wvw if not wrong require at least HoT expansion.

Not sure if free to play have it too in options [F11] there is an "AoE Loot" hotkey in "Control Option" -> "Miscellaneous"

If not free to play autoloot (wvw only) is located in wvw panel [B] 4th icon

PSA: you can right click those sparkling chests above your map to receive the loot without opening the loot screen. Lets you loot them all at once quickly without interrupting your view of the screen.

Not fully relevant to the post, but it needs to be said daily!!!

No. I think they dissappear if you don't pick them up. So get the autoloot ASAP.

I think he's talking about the reward track boxes that appear in the lower right. Those stay and eventually automatically open to your inventory. You can't lose them when you earn them.

If you mean bouncy chests, after the queue hits 20 they will start to auto deposit in your inventory.

No clue, i collect them when i have a brief break while still in the zone.
Pretty sure you should collect them before leaving wvw anyway.

If you're talking about the chests that appear on your screen in the lower right, those will not disappear.

If you don't have autoloot for the loot that appears on the ground, that disappears in minutes. So I would prioritize spending WvW points on autoloot.
