The change to have corpses despawn more quickly was intentional and was made to improve performance in heavily populated areas (where a large number of things are being killed). We're planning to increase the duration again after things calm down.

Probably want to make an exception and increase length of corpses with epic quality items though. Had to kill an extra Nok last night because the corpse vanished before the person who's turn it was to loot the mount rezed and looted, completely losing out on getting mount.

If we're doing exceptions, add skinnable mobs to the list.

If I kill more than two at a time, three at the most, i don't have time to skin them before they despawn.

Skinnable mobs and creatures with good loot (greens or better) do have a slightly longer despawn timer. Again, we're looking at returning it back to the way things were once things are more stable.
