Proposal for dl dicing and drops distribution

I dont suppose we alter our dicing methods completely or even at all. All i want to change is when a person with full dragonlord, or even if someone doesnt need a drop like an egg or urn, and someone at boss needs for that person to get rather than them giving to a clanmember/friend who wasnt at boss or even logged in at the time.

Also i would like to clear up something.

Is it of one person is eligable for more than one drop and no one else is, do all drops:

1. Go to the person eligable

2. The person keeps one and the others dice them off


Ill give you a scenario:

I was at Sreng boss, i was the only druid and rogue. We get through the boss and see a purple horn, egg and green horn drop.

What happens in these cases?

What happens is you get all the drops. Anyone who disagrees is therefore all for hoarding drops as that's all they'll be doing with those items if they got them.

Oh sure it's unfair you get all the drops, but it's much less fair when a person wins something they can't even use. What good is a red horn on my rogue?

Let me give you another example. Me and 1 other rogue at boss, that person has full armour and no weapon and no crowns. And a purple horn drops, im 2 horns away from bp, theyre 8 crowns xidols and 4 horns, from offhand. Who rightfully deserves the horn? The person who can make use of it earlier or the person months away from making use of it and will see numerous horns drop in the mean time?

Well i was told you can only win one drop no matter what, and u cant just assume people are hoarding drops for them selfs, becuz if i won one of the drops i wouldve givin to who i think is the most helpful asset to lugh. Now Luk maybe people give to others becuz the person already won one, and maybe they feel that the clannie/friend deserves it more then the person at the boss fight, or maybe they just owed lol

Not true, I won a green urn and purple egg at the same fight back in the day; and that's when people were harsh on me bringing my alt. I see lone mages get 2 drops at sreng sometimes too, it happens.

I recently was only mage and druid at snori and guess what our dear Mr. Snori had in his bag :?: yepp green and blue crown :!: as I was the only druid and mage there. People kindly suggested that I should have both drops.

Does this go against multiple drops? Yes of course!
Does it go against logic? No - if your the only person there who can use multiple drops they should go to that same person even if its two crowns and a horn all same color.

I agree that in the case described you get all drops. That is how it has been practiced as far as I have experienced both regarding DL-drops, masterpiece-drops and older armour item drops, and I have never registered any weighty arguments to the effect that this should be unfair. I support this system.

A whole different matter is non-quest boss items like aggy-drops and mordy-drops, where typically the only ranger at the aggy fight get to choose between the two aggy ranger drops, and the other one is diced for all. This is also a fair system in my opinion, as these drops are not needed in quantity, unlike DL-items.

I sure would appreciate if more high lvl warriors would waive dice for dl-drops they don't need, but I also assume that if warriors with full DL dice for a DL-drop and win, he/she will donate the drop to someone who needs it. I dont like the idea of making too many rules on these things, most players are good ppl so give them some credit.

We often will give multiple drops for dl. Never end game bosses tho.

The rules allow on person to get multiple drops if they are the only one there. AND the person that had full DL has just as much right to dice as ones that need the item. This is the current rules as voted on by LUGH.
