all we did was assisng point costs to items and, roughly each expansion, depreciate the cost of older items.
when something drops, everyone ayed in secret to one officer. highest point holder won. the value of the raid was the total amount spent on items divided by the number of raiders. this ensured that, on shitty old raids or raids where nothing dropped, the point value reflected that.
for example:
bertox in cod
2 items drop and are bought for a total of 40 DKP
40 people present
40/40 = 1 DKP per attendee
bertox in time
3 items drop and are bought for a total of 180 DKP
40 people present
180/40 = 4.5 DKP per attendee |
This is what we use. It helps combat inflation, since if item values are doubled a few months later, your distributed DKP is twice as much, and it decreases the value of "horded" points, relatively.
