When you play as a mage, when you kill enemies at a certain distance, they will die standing and may not drop loot. This only really happens when you're either too far for them to aggro and their tags don't show up (where this tends to happen the most), or when are able to aggro and attack (like with enemies mages), but the distance is far enough where this can trigger.
Example 1: Can see their tags, but distance was far enough where he died standing
Example 2: Too far to see tags, and he died standing here too
(Here he is just chilling-)
