BigDumbLootCouncil
BigDumbLootCouncil is a loot council addon that aims to be lightweight, bug free, and work out of the box for any guild. Libraries are only added when absolutely necessary, limiting the chance that patches break the addon.
Usage
BigDumbLootCouncil works out of the box for most guilds. Simply have your MasterLooter loot the boss and sessions will automatically be started for everyone in the raid with BDLC.
On Session Start:
- All players are presented with a roll window where they can add notes and indicate level of interested (Mainspec, Offspec, Minor Upgrade, Transmog, Reroll).
-
- Quick notes allow players to "toggle" on notes that indicate more specific information, such as "2pc, 4pc, BiS"
- Loot Council members are additionally given a window that shows a table of all player interest, item level, item comparison, guild rank, and average ilvl.
- Loot Council members are given 1 vote per item and can see the votes of all other Loot Council members.
- The Master Looter can then right-click the players' name in the Vote Window and select "Award to player" for ease. Item history is being tracked, and a way to see useful information about who got items most recently will be available in a future update.
Configuration
- /bdlc config - Opens up the configuration window
- You can change minimum guild rank to be automaticall added to the Loot Council
- You can add/remove "Quick Notes" to suite your guild's needs better, such as "1pc", "3pc", etc
- You can add/remove people to your Custom Council. This can be used to add people to the Loot Council who don't have the minimum guild rank, or who are not in guild.
Commands
