Noctis Loot Council
Loot rolls and loot council for WoW: Forever, built for the Noctis guild and usable by any guild. Type /nlc.
Beta. It hasn't been used in a real raid yet. If something goes wrong, please say so in the comments with the Lua error if there was one.
A list of every raid drop seen
Forever's raid loot isn't known ahead of time, so the addon keeps a list of every rare-or-better drop seen in your raids: the boss it came from and how often it has dropped. Everyone in the raid with the addon helps fill it in, from the loot window, "receives loot" chat lines and group loot rolls.
When an item drops for the first time, the loot master is told, and it's rolled unless the guild has decided otherwise.
When it drops again, they're told what was decided last time, with any note ("Priest priority").
Items can be decided before they've dropped for you: /nlc council, /nlc roll and /nlc note take an item link or ID.
Rolls
The loot master starts a roll from their window or with /nlc start <item>. The raid is told in raid chat: /roll for main spec, /roll 99 for off spec, 30 seconds. Raiders don't need the addon; those who have it get Main spec and Off spec buttons.
Who wins: main spec beats a second main-spec win tonight, which beats off spec. Then members beat trials (a guild rank with "trial" in its name, or the ranks you set with /nlc trials). Then the highest roll; a tie is rolled again.
Loot council
For the items your guild marks as council items:
- Bids, 30 seconds: Main spec, Off spec or Pass, with optional tags (BIS, Big upgrade, Sidegrade, Situational) and a short note. Bids go only to the loot master and the council, with what the bidder wears in that slot, and never raid-wide: if the game won't whisper a bid, it becomes a plain roll instead.
- The council votes in its own window, which shows each candidate's gear, earlier loot, tags, note and votes. Each vote comes with at least one reason from the rules (class fit, biggest upgrade, less loot so far, reliability, effort), and nobody votes on their own bid.
- The most votes wins, and the loot log says why: "council vote, 3 of 4: biggest upgrade". A split vote goes to a roll-off between those tied.
The loot master can also award a council item directly, with a reason. Pop-ups and council sessions only count from the raid leader, an assistant or the master looter.
Also in it
The loot master's window (/nlc show): tonight's drops with a button to start each, the running roll, the item list and the loot log.
Export tonight's awards for oxm.gg (/nlc export), in RCLootCouncil's CSV format.
Looks: window size with /nlc scale, EllesmereUI's or ElvUI's look if you use one, and the Gamepad UI.
No libraries, and nothing is sent outside the game.
Discord (optional)
Noctis also decides council or roll in Discord, with a bot and a small Windows app for officers that carries decisions into the game and uploads the loot log. They're open source in the same repository; raiders need only this addon.
