Isn't a bidding system, tasslehoff. Guilds will still have to track and engage the mob like normal. FTE and all that jazz. The guild that kills the mob spends however many points it costs do so.

Aye but the way I described lends more competition.

You have guilds bid points on raid mobs, winning bid gets first shot. If a guild bids high their point total goes way down, allowing other guilds to have their turn next.

This way also offers a bit of room for stratedgy, with guilds having to spend their points wisely to maximize the benefit to their guild. Guilds will atill HAVE to track the mob they bid on, because the 2nd highest bidder would get the mob should the first bidding guild wipe or fail to track.


A wipe/failure to track could then result in a loss of half (or more) of their bid, further fostering competition. This way, guilds can buy their shots at mobs while still having to put forth the effort to kill it in a timely manner. Can also add a time limit stipulation; for instance the winning bidder has 1 hour to engage after a pop or they lose their shot, and half the points they bid.
