GDKP is coming to Nost PvP! Save your scheckels!


Onyxia GDKP will be hosted by <Surge> members. It's a way for even those with the worst of luck to get items and gold.

How it works:

YOU: Pre raid BiS or better. At least 150g, which will be verified using trade window. Know the fight!

US: Experienced core. Ready to 1 shot Onyxia.


HOW IT WORKS:

You bring your gold, Greater Fire Protection Pots and a brain.

Gold is spit at 95% among raid.

Tier 2 starts at 75g bid. Offset items start at 100g bid. Weapons are 150g bid. For now the Head of Onyxia is reserved for <Surge>. This will change.


We will link an item. First person to type "X" gets the initial bid. If multiple people bid by typing "X" then the next round of bidding increases by 25g. This continues until only 1 person bids by typing "X" and the item would be sold for the final bid OR no one bids at the new tier and the first person to type X at the previous bidding tier wins.

Example:

Raid lead: Viskag linked 150g bid
Player1: X
Player 2: x

Raid lead: 175g bid
Player 2:X
Player 1: X
Player 3: X

Raid lead: 200g bid
Player 1: X
Player 3: X

Raid lead: 225g bid
Player 3: X

Player 3 would win the bid for 225 gold.

Using this same example, if no one bid at the 225 gold tier then Player 1 would receive the item for 200g bid as he was the first person to bid at 200g and no one has bid higher.

First raid will be:

January 2nd 2016 at 10PM Server Time/ 3pm EST


Edit: Starting bids adjusted based on feedback.

You could just buy any of the Onyxia items cheaper than your starting bids from any guild. Whats the point?

starting bids are too high, those are purchase prices, not bid prices

I don't want to rain on the parade, but with many top guilds selling items on the server. it would be more advantageous for them to purchase from them because:
1) guaranteed to kill the boss and clear the raid zone
2) unable to go against there word and get banned/scammed
3) no competition in getting the item.

sorry, but unless you can find a way to shove out the monopoly done by the top guilds selling gear, it won't get popular. why bid on an item when I can get a guaranteed one from a top guild?

because you get paid for attending regardless if your item drops.

You bring up great points.


1. Even if you don't need an item or didn't win an item, you still receive gold.
2. It's still possible to obtain items cheaper with this method. (We sold a sinew last week for 200g for example)

We kill bosses. Not interested in scamming but can appreciate the concern. A guild's credibility has to start somewhere.
