Just started slashing off and on a few months ago. I'm used to games like D3, WoW, and PoE that assign drops to a certain player. Since LS doesn't do this, is there an unwritten rule out looting or is it a FFA to the fastest finger?

the only unwritten rule is about welling. if you use a well with other players you shouldnt pick any other players drops (you can if he says "nn" for example or if you talk about what you can pick up or not).
on the other hand you will get your own drops.

in normal games there are sometimes people that do skilling and need certain lvl items.. but if you want to sell those or need them on your own you can ofc always pick that stuff up. (if you dont need those or if other people need items to shrine and refill their mana i wouldnt pick up any trash and just leave it for them)

How do you start the spawning at a well? Do you have to sac an item?

you have to throw in an item without any stats on it ("white item").
the monster that spawns will have the lvl of the item that you throw in.. to have the best effect you should try to throw in items that are similar to your lvl. (you can throw in lower items if you dont have the best gear to make it easier)

Don't bother with etiquette. There is no standard in LS. Nowadays there are so few players and all of them have a special wish list with respect to items that you are expected to know, despite the impossibility of that.
Believe me. I know. I've been in your shoes. Now I play other games. For this reason.

:wacko: the well drop concept is a pretty simple follow
only other "drop rule" I came across this entire season is in a pp climb one of the girls likes to have the comfreys but who cares about that

I've also seen before people will each pick one item and if it drops, it's that person's item but I mean that kinda stuff only exists in specific groups of friends. When you're in a pub game, it's anything goes (unless you're at a well). Maybe you will see people complain sometimes about never winning a drop but it's not your problem. They have the option of leaving the group and so do you. :)

I didn't realize you could "call" all the comfreys. I'm going to try that, lol..
