General Lotting Rules

Guidelines to Follow

Tardiness:
You are late if you are not on location by 6:45 PST, we plan to enter by 7PST, 7:15PST at the latest.

The 6:45 time can be altered at the discretion of a sac. However the alteration must not be in the sacs benefit, for example I'm runnning late and still want to lot, so I change the time. This is not acceptable. Anyone who is late will receive a "5" for attendance, if anyone is losing lotting rights for that run, they need to be notified.

This can be avoided by posting on the forums, or letting a leader know who will be present at the run. Excessive tardiness without informing a leader can result in your removal.

Lotting:
Our lotting system is tier based. Main 2nd and 3rd. Your main choice must be level 75. 2nd and 3rd must be 65+. Your current selections can be found on the first tab of the Lifestream Spreadsheet.

Based on this, members will be selected during dynamis to lot on items related to those jobs. For instance, if relic gear drops for Warrior, those who have Warrior marked as their tier 1 job will be given a chance to lot for said item. If, by chance, no one has Warrior set for their tier 1 job, or those that do already have the piece/do not want the piece, the lotting privileges will move down to the next tier, tier 2. Members with their tier 2 selected as Warrior will then get their chance to lot on the item. Then to tier 3, if the same circumstances for tier 2 apply. After tier 3, lotting will then be moved to a free-lot system based on jobs. If you are not announced in the first call for lots, please speak up, everything moves very fast, and at times we miss seeing individuals jobs on the spreadsheet. However please do not lot until told to do so.

Attendance can remove you from priority lots on your current tier, less than 75% average attendance. If you are below 25% Average attendance you may be excluded completely and will be called to lot with members on the next tier (If your on 2nd but have less than 25% attendance you will be called to lot with 3rds). This isn't a hard and fast rule, more as a guideline to follow and should only be used when absolutely needed (For example Xarcabard Drops, in rare instances a select few city/glacier af. Gear to be considered rare is listed below). The Final decision is up to the individual managing the run.

To Be Considered Rare Gear:
Duelist's Gloves (Bastok)
Valor Leggings (Windy)
Sorcerer's Gloves (Windy)
Bard's Roundlet (Sandy)
Valor Gauntlets (Sandy)
Melee Gloves (Jeuno)
Koga Chainmail (Bcd)
Valor Breeches (Bcd)
All Xarc Gear

AFK:
Everyone needs to afk at somepoint. Sometimes more than others. If something should come up and you need to afk for more than 5 mins please let a leader know, talk to them in tell if needed, ask them if they would like you to drop glass, just make sure that they acknowledge that you need to AFK. If they do not ask you to drop your glass, please place it in bazaar for 1gil in case something does come up. Please ensure you are at a safe spot. If you need to afk for a large part of the run please be respectful to you fellow teammates and exit the run until your able to fully participate.

Additional Character Lotting:
If you have alternate accounts and would like to choose a job based on a job they have leveled you are welcome to do so. Please keep in mind though you are welcome to only one of each piece of gear. Meaning you cannot lot the drop a second time until it is freelot. We won't give you preference twice for the same piece of gear.

All currency and Wootz ores will be lotted by an officer/sack holder. These will then be used to fund future dynamis runs and the improvement of the linkshell/members.

Dynamis Lotting:

Points will be handed out as such:
-For every one hour you're at the event you will receive 10 Points.
