Re: [ Classes] DK best DPS spec

I find that players hinder progression more than loot distrubtion hinders progression.

Agreed. But rolling, and then also taking a look at who would get the bigger upgrade helps gear the guild as a whole faster, thus making progression easier. DKP you often get a select few, usually officers, getting completely max'd overbidding the people that cant make as many raids still with some blues. And yeah maybe they deserve it more, but i personally prefer the sharing and generosity that my guild has. The moto since I joined has always been not to care to much about loot but rather guild progression.

DKP in my old guild was a big bidding greed fest where someone would take gear that was extremely slight in upgrades away from someone where it might have been a big upgrade.

DKP is by far the worst thing I've ever seen in the game. It's always guild officers deciding if they want something, and then throwing scraps to everyone else to fight over. If I come to the raid and put in hours in there, I should have just as much right to roll.

There are other factors to include more than "who its the largest upgrade for". Attendance, dedication, skill, etc. In a world where everyone shows up to every raid and will stick with it for years to come, yes, your system would make sense.

In a system where folks come and ago and people vary on a degree of skill levels, DKP wins out.

in the guild i am in when we roll on something. the individuals look at each others gear and if they see the it is a bigger upgrade for the other they let them have it even if they won the roll. we all have become really good friends. and even a lot of them are RL friends. live together and work together.

Do you guys have little parties on the weekends where one of you dresses up like a policeman, the other as an indian chief and another a construction worker?

sure. didn't i see you there as the biker... lol...
