[PS4] BUG: Hissing Wastes loot stuck in a tree, on a corpse with a hitbox
Hi: Earlier today I started exploring the Hissing Wastes, and I came across this: http://imgur.com/a/GkP5G I've tried all manner of jumping around to get it but to no avail. I've seen a few other...

Thanks for your report, I will pass it on to the studio for further investigation.

Not 100% Sure this is the same one because the screenies aren't from the right angle for me to tell, but if it's the same one I encountered on the PC (and it IS in the right place) It IS possible to retrieve.
This was one of several places where there were lootables in locations that appeared impossible to get to - unless you're slightly OCD, a tad bit insane, you just like messing around to see just how far the PhysX engine will let you push your luck... Or perhaps a strange combination of these. :catlol:
Here's the combined $0.02 of two of us who have done all sorts of crazy stuff in the attempt:
If it's the one I think it is, the branches are growing out of the cliff face you're standing on in the second shot. It takes a little patience, dexterity with the controls and at least a slight amount of luck, but you CAN indeed step out onto the branches and walk just close enough for the cursor to light up and allow you loot him. My daughter claims that she was able to "jump" over and grab it without falling to her death. :-)
This issue exists on Xbox One too. After a great deal of effort, I was able to figure out a way to get it. 1. Climb up the back of the large rock and move your party over the highest part of the rock down to the flatest portion of the rock where you're basically level with the corpse in the tree. If you use your search at this point, the corpse will light up. 2. Save your game once you're here. This isn't necessarily a solution, just the way I was able to obtain looting the corpse. 3. Try with each member. With your first character, go all the way to the end of the rock so the corpse is to your right. Hit the search key or button so the body illuminates. If you can, turn the camera upwards just slightly. 4. Turn, and proceed to walk towards and off (but don't jump - you lose the ability to loot it if you do) of the rock with the corpse right in front of you. While the body is illuminated and while you've just "walked - not jumped" off the rock, press your loot button (A button on the Xbox) a bunch while you're falling. I was able to get it using Blackwall. He was my third in my party. He picks up the loot off of the corpse at a lower point. To be honest, the loot was a dwarven plate. Yes... A plate.
