Seems like this is the fairest most objective loot system available, isn’t it? Now that GDKP is banned…
I have 5 friends and we’re all looking for a home. We are mostly pre-bis and all have experience raiding at high levels. We’d like a EPGP guild if possible…
LC - In 2024, this seems like just a way alpha gamers can funnel gear to their friends, honestly. Vanilla is dead easy, there is no progression. Why is LC needed for MC gear? Seems very vulnerable to heavy bias. It’s basically like HR for raids.
DKP - Works but has flaws like hoarding.
SR - good players don’t like SR because people who come without consumes, don’t know fights, go afk and parse terribly get equal prio on the best pieces. RNG decides. Feels bad for the top contributors.
EPGP - As long as it has a decay system to prevent hoarding, this seems like an elegant solution to all the above doesn’t it?
Anyway, we are a Druid, Priest, Fury Warrior, Lock and Rogue. Most of us are near full pre-raid bis. Would love to find a home.
Hoping to raid Friday nights or over the weekend if possible.
Package deals are usually a bad idea, might have one or two that are decent and the others really sub par. That’s just speaking from experience and seeing these types of groups play out.
I read up on EPGP and looks like a lot of work and complexity.
What’s wrong with DKP? My guild in 2019 classic did DKP and it worked fine. If you’re worried about hoarding, just reset everyone’s DKP whenever a new raid comes out. That’s how we handled it.
EPGP takes the unfairness of DKP out of it and addons handle it. When I raided high end we did epgp lootcouncil with decay. Addons handle the points for you. It’s effortless.
I mention SK once in a while. I ran with a guild in WoD that used it and it was pretty cool. Seemed like a lot of work on the raid leader though. Maybe the addon for it has gotten better.
Awards scrub players who simply show up every week and lets ppl like hunters who have very little to roll on in p1 the chance to snatch DFT from warriors / rogues who need it far more.
Here’s the real truth: any and all loot systems work. If they didn’t then they wouldn’t have been created to begin with. It is the people operating with them that are rotten.
