The problem with plain DKP
Hoarders win
Someone sits on points for months, then outbids the raider who's been at every pull.
Bidding wars
Open bids turn into a shouting match in raid chat, and the winner overpays.
Gut feel
Nobody really knows if the item is a big upgrade for the winner or a tiny one.
Show up, bid bigger
Your banked DKP and the ledger stay exactly as they are. BonkrDKP adds one thing on top: attendance.
Attendance sets your multiplier
Over your guild's last 25 bosses, every boss you were there for (or benched on call) counts. Full attendance gives up to 1.30×; spotty attendance can drop to 0.50×. New raiders start at 1.00×.
Bid Power is your limit
Banked DKP × multiplier = Bid Power, the most you can bid. Loyal raiders can reach higher with the same points.
Sealed bids, fair price
Everyone bids once, in secret, in Bonkr Gavel. The winner pays the second-highest bid, divided by their own multiplier, so they never overpay and regulars pay less. Ties go to attendance, then Bid Power, then a roll.
One drop, three raiders
An example with BonkrDKP's standard settings. The names and numbers are made up to show the math.
| Raider | Bosses attended | Multiplier | Banked DKP | Bid Power | Sealed bid |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Raider A | 25 of 25 | 1.25× | 400 | 500 | 320 · wins |
| Raider B | 20 of 25 | 1.05× | 440 | 462 | 250 |
| Raider C | 10 of 25 | 0.65× | 600 | 390 | 300 |
Who wins
Raider A bid the most: 320.
What they pay
The second-highest bid was 300. Divided by A's 1.25×, A pays 240 banked DKP.
Plain DKP?
Raider C's 600 banked points could have outbid everyone. Here, the raider who keeps showing up wins and pays less.
