Despawning
Drops on the ground (i.e. not in your Inventory or a storage unit) upon logout of the save file will despawn (disappear). At that point, it is impossible to reacquire them. If there are more than 400 "loose" items on the world, items will also start despawning. In this instance, the items that have remained on the ground for the longest amount of time may vanish as new items are added to the screen.
