An idea for addon developers

Greetings, scripters!

I have an idea of one very useful addon, maybe someone will decide to create it:

I'm talking about ultimate Raid Loot addon, what shout it have:

1. DKP, EPGP, Councill loot support
2. Using Guild/Officer note to save DKP vallues
3. Auto add dkp/EP points to players who are in raid afer boss kill
4. Right after Master Looter loot boss - open similar to blizzard group loot window, allowed players to bid DKP/need item while EPGP/Council loot mode on
5. Auto -DKP/+GP changes to guild/officer note after player get an item
6. Making log file for every raid in addon folder
7. Allow Raid leader/officers to check Addon list of every raid member

This addon will be highly useful, speeding up roll process, making it more likely Group Loot, while your raid can clear its way to next boss, minimizing raid time loose.

I hope someone will got some interest in this addon, so whole server can +rep this person.

Best regards!

I have made an addon called GuildDKP which can do some of the things you've mentioned:

You can for example add 25 DKP to all players in the raid using /gdaddraid 25.

GuildDKP also supports "Boss DKP"; this means that instead of giving a fix amount of DKP, you give e.g. 800 DKP per boss. This DKP is then split out on all members. So if there are 40 people in the raid, then each will get 800/40 = 20 DKP each.
If there's only 30 in the raid, each will get 800/30 = 26.666 --> 27 DKP.
Example: /gdshareraid 800

You can add DKP for people in range (within 100 yards) using /gdaddrange 50 for example for adding a 50 DKP on-time bonus (DKP for people being at the instance at raid time).

Finally it supports DKP decay: /gddecay 10
In our guild we reduce the earned DKP each week by 10% just before Sunday's main raid. This prevents people stacking up DKP, and puts a cap in how much DKP you can have.


Since it stores the DKP value in guild notes, it only works for guilded members - unguilded members are ignored. Officer notes are not officially supported, but can be "hacked" by changing a variable in top of the code :-)

- It does not support ZeroDKP.
- It does not auto-assign DKP to people (although I have planned to add some kind of bidding interface later).
- It does not store the transaction log on disk (is that needed?) - it would be relatively easy to implement though.

You can give GuildDKP a shot at:

+1 for GuildDKP — I'm actually developing a small plugin for it for my guild that simply pulls the values into a window for easy view & comparison of people's DKP too, with the options to filter the list ("whole guild", "current raid members" etc) through several different tabs:
