PixlLootCouncil

A loot council addon for World of Warcraft: TBC Anniversary Classic. The master looter collects the raid's loot as it drops, the council reviews everyone's interest in one window, and a single Award All hands everything out. Trades are guided, and every award lands in a loot history that uses RCLootCouncil's format.

Beta. This is an early test version. Expect rough edges, and please report what you find (see Reporting bugs).

Features

• Silent loot collection. As master looter you just loot. Items at or above your quality threshold go straight into your bags, with no popups mid-pull.
• Trade-time tracking. Each bagged item shows how long it can still be traded: soulbound loot has a 2-hour trade window, and BoE recipes from the raid have no limit. You get a chat reminder at 20 and 5 minutes, and expired items are flagged.
• Loot Response window for raiders: BiS / Upgrade / PvP / OS / Pass plus an optional note, with a countdown.
• Loot Session window for the council:
  • every candidate's response and note, equipped items, item level difference and role
  • hover a name to see what that player has received; hover an item to see who already got it
  • the session holder stages a pick per item (or Disenchant to the raid's Enchanter), then commits everything with Award All
  • the council sees staged picks live
• Loot Trades window listing what you still have to hand out or collect, with trade time left:
  • Trade opens a trade and puts the awarded items in for you; you still click the trade window's Trade button
  • Follow walks you to the other player
  • one-click Disenchant for items you disenchant yourself
• Loot history:
  • stored in RCLootCouncil's exact format, browsable with date, name, class and response filters
  • exports to TSV (Google Sheets & English Excel) and TSV (International Excel), so existing RC spreadsheets keep working
• Import from RCLootCouncil:
  • receive a loot master's history in game via RC's own /rc sync
  • record an RC master looter's awards live during raids
  • paste RC's Player Export
• Council you control:
  • the master looter is always on it; add raid leader & assistants, guild ranks, or individual names
  • only the council sees votes, and only the session holder can award
• Auto-start: collecting loot as master looter can start a session by itself.

Requirements

• TBC Anniversary Classic.
• Master Loot for the full workflow (collection, sessions, trades).
• Raiders need the addon to respond to a session. People without it show as No addon detected.

Getting started

Master looter

1. Set the group's loot method to Master Loot and loot as usual. Qualifying items are collected into your bags. Change the quality threshold under Options → General.
2. Type /plc to open the Loot Session window, then press Start Session. With auto-start on (the default), this happens by itself a few seconds after you collect loot.
3. For each item, click Award next to a candidate, or Disenchant. This only stages the pick and moves on to the next item.
4. Press Award All when you're done. The awards are announced, recorded in the history, and the session ends.
5. In Loot Trades, click Trade next to each item (or open a trade with the winner) and confirm the trade.

Council members

Open /plc during a session to see responses, notes and gear comparisons, and to follow the master looter's staged picks. Who's on the council is set by the master looter under Options → Council.

Raiders

When a session starts, the Loot Response window opens. Pick a response for each item and add a note if you like. Awarded items show up in Loot Trades with a Trade button.

Slash commands

The Loot Session window also has buttons to open the other windows.

Coming from RCLootCouncil

• History: open /plc history → Import.
  • If RCLootCouncil is installed on your character, Import from RCLootCouncil copies its history directly.
  • Otherwise, ask the loot master to open /rc sync, choose Loot History, and pick you. You'll get an accept prompt.
  • You can also paste an RC Player Export.
  • Importing twice is safe; duplicates are skipped.
• Exports use RC's TSV layout, so spreadsheets built on RC exports keep working.
• Running both: raiders can keep RCLootCouncil installed. The master looter should use only one of the two addons to run loot.

Known limitations

• Trade-time tracking reads the item tooltip and currently understands the English client only.
• The interface is English only; translations are welcome.
• History votes is always 0, because PixlLootCouncil has no council vote count.

Reporting bugs

Please open an issue on GitHub and include:

• what you did and what happened
• the output of /plc errors
• whether you were the master looter, a council member or a raider
