I had an idea for a loot system, more of a Round Robin type system. I like DKP cause it gives choice to your raiders and lets them in on the situation but dislike the complexity. I like LC cause it simplifies everything but dislike that it takes the choice out of it. My idea, picture a list of 40 raiders listed 1-40 The person(class) at the top will get priority on the item that drops for them next and if they decline it will go down the list and if everyone declines then the item will be /rolled between those it was an upgrade for and no one loses their spot. If a player accepted the item they would be at the back of the queue. To prevent people sitting at the top of the list, and to reward those who show up I decided. - If you miss a raid, you drop 6 spots on the list - If you don't accept an item 1 month you will be forced to take the next upgrade or drop down 12 spots. This way it balances out pieces of loot, gives choice to the players and prevents abuse to sitting at the top of the totem pole and missing raids. (High attendance will still be required). Ideas? Thoughts? How can I improve it further?

My hope is they will see what a success the launch has been in terms of players and release the Fresh Start server sooner than they planned on. I'm one of those people who are just waiting for it...

Yeah it's interesting though, 12 healers and 4 tanks? That's nearly 1/2 your raid in just healers and tanks. Could anyone provide me with what is ideal for tanks? I noticed one guild wanting a feral off-tank, and for the healers is there any pref set up or 4 priest, 4 druids, and 4 shaman? Edit: Also among 10 melee DPS, I'm guessing 6 rogues, 3 fury warriors, and 1 2h Nightfall or do most guilds use 2 2h nightfalls?

Do you have any detailed but simple loot systems you could share? I really wouldn't know where to begin as far as Loot Council distribution, also seems like it could lead to drama regularly. Also to be clear, you wouldn't move down a spot on the list unless you sit at the top for 1 month, then you'll be forced to take the next item or choose to move down the list partially instead of completely. So if you need 1 or 2 items and they are rare drops and your at the top of the list, you would stay there. But say your a rogue and pass on 5 bloodfang pieces because you just want to get a weapon, you would get penalized then and be forced to take an upgrade or move down the list. Also a 90% raid attendance would be required, I definitely don't want to recruit people who only care about loot. Edit: Fixed the first post, the website crash earlier didn't properly change it.

Thank you for the response and all the information, I greatly appreciate it.

This was an old Add On I used back in TBC which was very fun because it was an announcer that shouted things like "Ownage", "Double Kill", "Killing Spree", "Rampage", "Multi Kill", "Dominating", "Unstoppable", "Mega Kill", "Godlike", "Wicked Sick", "Ultra Kill", "Monster Kill", "Ludacris Kill", "Holy фекал" as you'll see in https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/killshot. If there is anyone out there who could brilliantly make a Vanilla edition I would praise you, the add-on makes PvP more enjoyable trying to wrack up kill streaks. Thanks.

Thank you, not the voice sounds I was wanting but at least it's something to use till then

Thanks but I believe that is a dead end. I downloaded it, extracted it and had it in my add-on folder but it never worked (unless it only works in Battlegrounds). I noticed his 2nd post indicating he needed to update it but that link is broken

I'm more than pleased to be able to play Vanilla and I want to support the community but is there going to be a monthly option added? I find it easier personally and would prefer to donate that way.
