Guild Progress: Cataclysm

Cataclysm

How does this work?

Our scoring system is based on the three factors that make rankings count: boss kills, loot awarded and achievements received. Guilds can update their achievements at any time on the server forums, or by requesting an update through WowProgress.com, at which time points will be recalulated and any required changes made to this list. Heroic, twenty-five and ten man kills will be marked and identified as they apply.

While we complete our updated lists in anticipation of Cataclysm, we will also be attempting to bring you historical information about guilds such as the date they were formed and whether they completed any content in Classic Warcraft, the Burning Crusades or during Wrath of the Lich King.

-{{partying}}
-A '''party''' (a type of [[group]]) is a collection of [[Player]] characters that can communicate amongst each other privately (see [[Chat|chat]]), share [[XP]], and manage the distribution of [[Loot|loot]] from any [[mob]]s party members kill.
-=== Controls and limitations ===
+=== [[Cataclysm]] ===
-A party can only have up to 5 characters and only 1 can be the leader. The leader cannot keep a member in the party if he wants to leave, but can remove a member.
+''How does this work?''
-=== Leadership ===
-The [[leader]] of the party can [[invite]] new members to the party, [[uninvite]] current members to remove them from the party, or [[Promote to Leader|promote]] another party member to be leader.
+Our scoring system is based on the three factors that make rankings count:  boss kills, loot awarded and achievements received.  Guilds can update their achievements at any time on the server forums, or by requesting an update through [http://www.wowprogress.com/pve/us/blackwater-raiders WowProgress.com], at which time points will be recalulated and any required changes made to this list.  Heroic, twenty-five and ten man kills will be marked and identified as they apply.
-The leader can set the [[#Looting|loot level]] and the [[#Looting|loot quality threshold]] to control how loot gets distributed.
+While we complete our updated lists in anticipation of Cataclysm, we will also be attempting to bring you historical information about guilds such as the date they were formed and whether they completed any content in Classic Warcraft, the Burning Crusades or during Wrath of the Lich King.
-As with any party member, the leader can also [[Leave Party|leave the party]]. In this case, another player will be chosen at random to become the new leader.

-=== Experience ===
-Dividing [[XP]] among party members is an arcane calculation known only to [http://www.blizzard.com/support/wowgm/?id=agm01005p Blizzard]  (and those who share the secret) based on the various [[level]]s of the party members, the level of the killed mob, and other factors.
-=== Looting ===
-Also see [[Loot#Looting While In A Party|Looting While In A Party]] under [[Loot]].
-''This section is mostly stolen from the [[Newbie Guide]]. -[[User:Fandyllic|- Fandyllic]]''
-[[Looting]] and [[loot]] [[drop]]s in World of Warcraft are fairly straightforward.  If the corpse of a monster has gold sparkles on top of it, it means there's something on the corpse that you can loot.  Once you loot a corpse, if you don't take everything off it, everyone else in your group will have the option to loot.
-There are a few different looting types in parties called the ''[[Loot Level|loot level]]'' or ''loot option'' that can be set by the party leader by right-clicking on his own portrait in the upper left.  Two of these types are affected by the ''[[Loot Quality Threshold|loot quality threshold]]'', also set by the leader (the threshold can be set to Uncommon, Rare, or Epic). If an item is equal or higher quality than the loot quality threshold, party members are given the option to '''Roll''' (from 1 - 100) to get the item or '''Pass'''.
-Money loot is always shared in a party regardless of loot type.  However, if a party member is out of range when a monster is killed, and so did not contribute to the kill, he will not receive a share of any gold found on a corpse and will not be able to roll for any special items found.
-; Free for All : Anyone can loot any item off any [[corpse]] killed by the group.
-; Round Robin : Group members take turns looting corpses as they are killed; they are allowed to loot all items from a corpse.
-; Master Looter : Only the designated [[master looter]] (set by the party [[leader]] by right-clicking on any member's portrait) may loot corpses first.  For any item that is of the same or better type than the threshold, when the master looter attempts to loot it, he will see a dropdown list of all the party members' names.  He can select a person from that list to assign the item to him.
-; Group Loot : This is the default type for a group.  Looting takes place the same as in Round Robin looting.  However, for any item that is of the same or better type than the threshold, all members in the party will get a rolling window with the item and two buttons.  Party members can press the dice button to NEED [[roll]] for the item, or the gold coin to [[Greed]] roll for the item, or lastly the red X close button to pass on the item.  The looting will first resolve all NEED rolls, if none then Greed rolls. The member with the highest roll will get the item automatically placed in his inventory.  It is often recommended that the group set out guidelines for what to roll on and what not to roll on when using Group Loot.  A general rule of thumb is to not NEED roll on something you are not going to equip as soon as pick it up.
-; Need Before Greed : Similar to Group Loot, only this mode follows a system of only allowing party members to roll on an item if it 'can be used' by them.  There are flaws with this system, both in the code itself and with regards to limitations of the system itself.  It is recommended that you use 'Group Loot' in lieu of Need Before Greed, and simply clarify to people what they should and shouldn't roll on beforehand.
