GDKP is the Superior loot system, change my mind (Please add GDKP's)

Pros: (to name a few)

• More Alt Friendly
• Can get right into raids at max level
• Personally, more community involvement for me. More raids, more players, etc
• More gold for raid consumes/other endeavors
• Less botting/RMT because players get gold from raids, no need to swipe.
• On average better players in the raids (Poor performers not invited/no cut, etc.)

Cons:

• No need for a guild
• More discord driven
• Truthfully can’t think of others

“Looking for 7 more BUYERS for GDKP xxxx tomorrow at 7pm EST”

• more alt friendly if you RMT
• can get right into raids at max level if you RMT
• MORE botting/RMT because players have to RMT to compete with the bids of those who RMT

I mean the average payout for an AQ 40 in 2019 was like 600g on an even split -20% organizer fee. Big ticket items were MINIMUM bid of 6k. you think players are waiting 10 runs before they can even bid on an item? hell no swipe swipe swipe. The reason Blizzard banned GDKP in SoD is for this very thing.

It’s also undeniable that GDKP contributes to and drives a lot of illicit activity, such as real-money trading (RMT) and botting, as it creates a demand for in-game gold that would not otherwise exist. GDKP can create an “arms race” effect that encourages participating players to purchase gold to be able to compete for the best items.

In a perfect world where NO ONE RMT’d GDKP would be the best and most fair loot system, but that wont ever happen. So it should remain banned. I can actually open world farm now unlike in 2019 because how bot infested it was with GDKPs ensuring players were probably buying millions of gold weekly. Hell now its pretty much limited to people buying epic mounts and consumes which is probably a tenth of what was being sold in 2019.
