when in actuality it is a loot council where the officer core decides who gets loot.



There are several reasons that Nihilum tries to make people think that they use a DKP system now. Everyone knows that DKP systems are fairer. In a DKP system every person who shows up to raids acquires DKP and then is allowed to spend that DKP on specific loot that they want for their main or alt.

In Nihilum this is not the case. They don’t let you get loot unless it’s for a main, and then you have to purchase items for alts with plat. The Nihilum FQers will say that the cash goes to buying components; peridots, emeralds, sky/hate stones etc. I’m sure Nihilum had over a mil in plat. That was enough to keep them going for years. Why not allow people to spend DKP on pixels that they helped Nihilum earn?

The reason is very simple. It’s greed.

In Velious Nihilum says they will go to a “bid” DKP system instead of their current loot council. This is simply untrue. If they wanted to do a DKP system they would have done it by now. This is the perfect time to test a new DKP system instead of trying to drop it when Velious releases. By testing it now they could make changes and tweaks before Velious drops. The Nihilum leadership who farmed this box for years feels they deserve loot more than some new guy who showed up in the last few months. They will even change DKP logs to try to fool new members if they have to.


By only giving loot to mains the leadership is able to keep a majority of the pixel farmed and profits from those pixels to themselves. They can use their loyal members to keep farming items, and not allow members to spend their hard earned DKP on items they helped farm. Leadership can even RMT items or plat for real cash if they can’t afford that case of Mt. Dew and hot pockets. Nihilum leadership gains nothing by using DKP, and the inner core looses free slave labor.

tl:dr version
Pikrib was bored at work and wanted to start a new thread.

Thanks for spending time thoroughly analyzing the loot system of a guild your not associated with.
