Initially none, there's no point when you start ZG because there's a fair chance that only one boss will go down, 2 if things go very well. Once things look better we'll have another discussion and implement one  |

joims is on drugs!!
i'd recommend a zero-dkp system where you accumulate dkp and then if you want an item you can buy it and it reduces your dkp to 0 so that gear is spread evenly and gives other people to get gear but still rewards time spent in to gear gotten back

Sariela, that wouldn't work. For example, if i wanted say, two items from an instance, and they wouldnt drop, I would have loads of DKP from running it a lot.
If one of these items dropped, i would have to spend all my DKP on it to get it, which reduces my DKP to zero.
Then the other item drops, and me having no DKP, and having ran this instance so many times, can't get it. Then someone who has just joined, bids 5 and gets it.
Way too unfair.

yes but it provides a fair share of loot throughout the raid, why should you get 2 of say the 3 warrior drops? it benefits the raid as a whole more than personal benefits. you could however use a bidding system but this can become top heavy by people reserving dkp for one item and then when it drops people end up with lots of dkp and it can become terrible.
So for this guild i see these 3 options as viable:
1. Zero-sum dkp
2. Bidding system
3. Don't use dkp and rely on the kindness of your guild (never will work because we all know people like purple armour)

bidding system, you just got to prioritize. A new helmet or a new weapon, which one will give you the most benefits.

exactly natsuki gets what i mean!! you can't expect to be able to have the opurtunity to bid on all items, you have decide yourself what you want to bid on

For zg we should stick with our 1 item per raid policy. No dkp there please.

Yea for ZG we are not using DKP, its not really worth it, we are looking into dkp for MC runs

the only reason to use dkp on ZG would be to encourage people to attend by offering a attendance/ontime bonus.
other than that its not needed

What's DKP?
i can see what it is you're on about, a method of distributing loot, but...
