Looting Policy
Firstly, this is no way shape or form a comment on how any other group on the server wishes to distribute loot drops, simply what one group of players have decided to agree to and use on runs WE organise which I am posting so everyone knows before they join us.
Secondly, this is not a discussion.....Questions to clarify any aspect of the policy are fine but if you wish to discuss how loot is distributed, please make another thread. As this post is to convey information not start a discussion if people take it off topic I will be asking for it to be locked.
Distribution of Loot drops
Where sensible the party will have 1-3 nominated looters who will be decided upon before the run starts and where possible pick the characters with the highest Lore to assist in identifying. Where sensible and time allows loot should always be identified before being picked up. Please leave all the looting to them as much as possible.
When it becomes time to distribute the loot items then items will be rolled for as normal BUT do NOT roll for an item unless you intend to actually use it. By actually use it we mean on a regular basis. If someone rolls for an item, stating they will use it and then we learn it has been sold within 3 months from the time they won it, they will no longer be invited on runs WE organise.
Should no one actually have a valid use for an item then all can roll for it and it can be sold as normal.
Rogues, Bards, UMD and Loot drops
Obviously rogues/bards with a high UMD can pretty much use anything. Should an item be found that is CLASS specific then members of that class will get first refusal on that item period. Should they not wish it then it will be rolled for by those that will use it, if no one will use then everyone can roll as above. By class specific we mean that it is the ONLY class listed in the description as able to use that item.
Loot and High Level CNRWhen a high level CNR run is organised, such as (but not inclusive to) emeralds, rubies, mithral, yew then slightly different rules will apply.
If there is enough of the CNR for everyone in the party to take a share then the above rules will apply.
If there is NOT enough CNR for everyone then the CNR will be rolled for as normal, again....Roll if you are going to use it, not simply to sell it. Once the CNR has been rolled for and distributed then those NOT having got any of the CNR will get first refusal on any loot drops to roll among themselves as necessary. Once that has been done then the above rule applies to any loot left.
Staying togetherRunning off and leaving the looter is both dangerous for the looter as well as often losing them XP from the next encounter. Looters are providing the party a service and as such if you run off you will be given two warnings, if you continue to run ahead you will forfeit the right to roll for any CNR or loot.
Remember, if you roll saying you will use something and it is sold rather than used when another would have used it, you will not be asked to join the runs this group of characters organise.
Everyone in a group makes it possible for loot/CNR to be gathered and as such need should always come first in the distribution, then personal profit.
These rules obviously ONLY apply to runs any of these characters organise. Each group has their own ways of distributing loot and when invited on their runs then we expect to follow their rules.

Should anyone else wish to add their characters name to this set of rules as they would like to use it for trips they organise too, please PM me. In fact, even if you’re reading this and thinking “That’s what I do anyway” please still PM me to have your name added.
Even if you don't organise trips as such but like and support this....PM me your name!
