Loot Systems

Detailed breakdown of Throney’s two loot distribution systems: DKP Item Listings and DKP Loot Auctions.

Throney offers two robust systems for managing loot in your alliance:

1. DKP Item Listings — For simple upgrade/trait/litho bidding via Discord reactions.
2. DKP Loot Auctions — For live, DKP-based bidding with automatic deductions.

Both systems are fully integrated with the Throney Dashboard and Discord.

📦 DKP Item Listings (Upgrade / Trait / Litho)

This system lets officers post an item to Discord and have users respond by selecting one of three interest categories:

• 🔺 Upgrade — High-priority gear for your main build.
• 🧬 Trait — Secondary spec or trait-related interest.
• 💎 Litho — Desired for lithograph crafting or exchange.

📌 How to Create a DKP Item Listing

1. Go to the Throney Dashboard.
2. Navigate to your Alliance Dashboard.
3. Under the Item Panel, click Manage Items.
4. Hit “Add New Item” and fill out the following:

• Channel – Where the item post will appear in Discord.
• Item – Choose from your guild’s loot list.
• Notes – Optional explanation or rules.

Once submitted, the bot posts the item to Discord with reactions for Upgrade, Trait, and Litho.

🧠 System Behavior

• Once a member reacts, the bot marks them as responded.
• Officers can award the item via the dashboard — the system will:
  • Deduct DKP
  • Reject all other bidders automatically

You can also use our internal “roll” system to roll the item between the reacted members.

⚠️ Always delete listings from the dashboard — not from Discord — to avoid sync issues.

🏦 DKP Loot Auction System (Live Bidding)

This is a separate, advanced system designed for real-time, competitive bidding.

📌 Features

• Officers can:

  • Set starting bid
  • Set bid increment
  • Configure the Discord channel
  • Define the auction end time (manual or auto)

• Members can:

  • Click Bid in Discord
  • Have DKP automatically deducted
  • Re-bid as long as they have balance (configurable soon)

⚙️ Staff Tools

• End auction manually from the dashboard
• Delete auction listings (also removes the Discord message)
• Auction visibility & history stored on the dashboard

🕒 Auctions created on the dashboard take ~1-2 minutes to sync to Discord.

❌ Bids cannot yet be retracted or deleted. This is coming in a future update.
