Lotting SystemThe bread and butter of the rules, the lotting system is a semi-point based, semi-job based system that was designed to keep things fair for both those who want specific items and those who have put more time in the linkshell.
No members is allowed to lot any item unless specified except for relic weapons, which are free lot. If a piece of relic gear drops, a sackholder shall proceed to call down the available tiers until someone belonging in that tier lots. If you belong to a specified tier you may freely lot the item in question.

1)
Chains of Promathia Dynamis Wishlist - This only applies to CoP Dynamis zones and their specific items. If you have a certain item on your wishlist and have the greatest amount of Member Seniority points, you have lotting rights for the item. Lotting in this method costs ten points from your Member Seniority total.
2)
Senior Main Lot - Only available to those with 30+ Main Seniority points and are within five points of the next highest person who also has seniority. All people within this category can lot on an item when called. Lotting in this method costs six points from your Main Seniority point total for city-zone drops, and ten points from your Main Seniority point total for Northland/Regular CoP Zone drops.
3)
Main Point Lot - Those within the main category and seniors who do not have top seniority can lot in this tier if they are willing to spend ten Main Seniority Points for northland zones, or six Main Seniority Points for city zones.
4)
Main Lot - Only available to those who are in the main category for the item. Requires ten Main Seniority Points to be spent for northland zone items.
5)
Sub Lot - You may lot on this tier if you have the appropriate sub lot declared for a given item. Lotting for a sub job item does not cost points.
6)
71+ - You may lot on this tier if you have the specified job at level 71+. Lotting in this tier does not cost points.
7)
65+ - You may lot on this tier if you have the specified job at level 65+. Lotting in this tier does not cost points.
8)
50+ - You may lot on this tier if you have the specified job at level 50+. Lotting in this tier does not cost points.
9)
Freelot - You may lot on this item if you are breathing, concious, and are present at dynamis. Lotting in this tier does not cost points.
Trial Memberships - All trial members are allowed to lot along with the Level 65+ Tier for their Main/Sub Lots. No exceptions.
Changing Main/Sub Rights - You can change your main lot and sub lot at the beginning of the month up until the 10th of the month. Changing your Main Lot will reduce your Main Seniority point total to ten points, where changing your Sub Lot will not affect your point total. Your Member Seniority Point Total will remain unaffected in both cases.
Wishlist Items - You may -not- replace obtained items on your wishlist with another when you obtain them: once your wishlist is complete you may only lot on CoP Items if the lotting tier progresses past wishlist items.
Second Item - Sometimes a player may wish to obtain an item a second time, because they accidentally dropped their last one, upgraded the previous to +1, etc. For a person who wishes to obtain a second piece of a specific piece of gear, they have two options:
- If their main lot is still set to the same as the item, they are allowed to spend points on the item in the same manner as a person in the Main Point Lotter tier would. This will put you within that lotting tier to obtain the item.
- Otherwise, if a person does not wish to spend points on the item if they are main, or if they are sub lot, or etc, they are allowed to lot with the 71+ lotting tier.
