Pitiful Loot

Raid loot rolls with a per-item pity timer

  • Raid
  • In development

Pitiful Loot is a guild raid loot addon that adds a per-item pity timer to loot rolls. Every lost roll on an item makes your next roll on that same item stronger, so players who've waited the longest are favoured without ever being guaranteed a win.

Everything happens in-game. Raiders don't need the addon to take part, typing /roll is enough, though with it they see more of what's going on. Officers keep the authoritative ledger, and every client keeps its own log to check against.

Rules

These rules come from the current design draft, and may change before 1.0.

Pity gain
+10 for every lost need roll, on that item only.
Pity cap
+50.
Effective roll
min(d100 + pity + modifier, 100)
Off-spec
A −20 modifier.
Ties
Reroll among the tied players only, and pity is kept.
Winning
You can't need-roll that item again, and its pity is cleared.
Greed rolls
Give no pity.
Passing
Passing, or not rolling, has no effect on pity.
Leaving
−10 pity a week, starting 7 days after leaving the guild.
