Living Embers

[TeaLeaf]

Been thinking some about this and how we distribute items.  There are loads of items people will want because they are upgrades, but the quality of the upgrade varies.  I think we ought to post a list of recipes that become available and set some rules.

I think priority should go to:

1. The item is a BIS upgrade for T12.
2. Other mats must be fully available.
3. It goes without saying that this is main raid use only.
4. We should only consider handing out Living Embers for non-BIS upgrades when there is no current waiting list for BIS upgrades.

How would this affect people?  Using me as an example there are two items that I would want crafted.  One would be a BIS upgrade, but one would just be an upgrade over T11 and would be nice but not essential.

I'm pretty ambilvalent about whether or not we charge DKP for these things, but I think we need to agree something and post it up ASAP.

Re RGW
If as and when they start downing bosses and getting Living Embers, we might want to use a separate tab (and let Drea know to use this separate tab) so that we avoid distribution of RGW embers to RGT etc.

Thoughts?

I agree and I do think we should charge DKP for them (around 2-4 dkp for each ember as each piece requires 4 embers).

Happy to charge 4dkp per Ember imo, if it is a BIS item they might have bid a lot for it anyway.

This thread needs concluding & posting up ASAP before RGW and 'the thread' develops its own policy.

I had a chat with JAS last night and we agree that we should have a seperate tab for RGW (already set up) and that they should go out in batches of 4 for 20 DKP.  8 of the current Living embers will go to RGT and 4 to RGW (Based on the number we can prove we won from my logs) and it should keep everyone happy as RGW get an  upgrade too.  

I'm not sure exactly where we got to regarding handing out the embers but I think we should have Two threads on the forum, one for RGT and one for RGW for people to apply for the embers (main spec only). Council prioritise the Embers based on what's best for raid (as we did with Maelstrom enchants) for RGT and the RGW RL should prioritise the RGW ones.

Sounds fine to me.  Happy for it to be done this way.

And as an aside, when the thread goes up I'll not be able to add my name quickly as I'mover here in Canada, but I'd like to be on it for the cloth boots which are BIS for this tier for shadow priests.

Right, off to Canada Wonderland now, a full day of rides & waterpark fun.  Cyas.... /waves
