Yeah, and it is with us. I'm just not going to go into every tiny detail [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] If you gauge our system by our guild's success though, it works well!

the one thing I have noticed with the big numbers when I have browsed through AM's DKP page is that its crazy how close the 'mid tier' items are for both the guilds, even with the larger numbers here at Awakened

basically if you want something BIS from one of the major end game bosses: you are looking at 2K DKP + spending for 1 item

however

there are tons of NTOV BIS/near BIS upgrades that are going for mere pennies respectively. You can score Shiny Metallic Sleeves as Catherin showed for less than 300 DKP, thats a BIS item for INT casters and basically one raid cycle of attending nearly pays for it.

Once you have an amount that can be projected into some kind of BIS, people usually will keep their wallets tight due to the competition from their peers. This opens up tons of items that people will pick up on the cheap since they are not BIS or near to it, however there will always be items that certain people desire above else and they may bid 'out of the norm' according to the data which causes random spikes

Its all a lot of fun - I usually don't get my hopes up when sending in a bid and expect to lose so its a nice surprise when you win something.

That is unless you are an expert in DKP-Quest.

Unless you raid a bunch of times per week and ahead of the curve, you won't catch the jobless/work from home guys who can log in for batphones 24/7

is success in life inversely related to success on p99 [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So if you have a job, and other commitments - stay casual and raid with a casual guild on the same level is my advice.

I'd almost suggest joining a newish guild that hasn't got years of DKP backlogs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Not really. If you are successful in life you should have plenty of free time to enjoy the raiding and middle of the night batphones.

Producing offspring is the only true success in this world. Hard to find time to raid while raising children.

A couple of people in a certain casual blue guild have 863 hours of earned raiding time.

They're good folks too (not salty or jaded), just able to raid a lot and been in the guild a long time.
