Loot is obtained by stealing from or KO'ing enemies, and by completing quests. Loot can be used to unlock weapons for purchase at shops, or can be sold for gil. Skills such as Loot Lv.1, and Pilfer allow loot to be stolen from enemies, while skills like Hunting and Trophy Hunt allow for two pieces of loot instead of the normal one to drop from the target if it KOs it.

Etymology

Looting, also referred to as sacking, plundering, despoiling, despoliation, and pillaging, is the indiscriminate taking of goods by force as part of a military or political victory, or during a catastrophe, such as war, natural disaster, or rioting. The term is also used in a broader sense to describe egregious instances of theft and embezzlement, such as the "plundering" of private or public assets by corrupt or greedy authorities. Looting is loosely distinguished from scavenging in terms of objects taken: scavenging implies taking of essential items such as food, water, shelter, or other material needed for survival while looting implies items of luxury or not necessary for survival such as art work, precious metals or other valuables. The proceeds of all these activities can be described as loot, plunder, spoils, or pillage.
