Can you explain how the Priority Loot system works when check on the dkp system.
Here is how I understand it and you let me know if I am thinking right.
If the option is check to use, then the members can go to their profile to add the items their looking for. Then they put in a point value that they are willing to spend to get this item out of the items received.
You're pretty close. The text box isn't the amount of points they're willing to spend, it's an actual priority. So an item with priority 1 is top priority, while an item with priority 3 is 3rd priority for that person.
The idea then, if an item drops, is to award the item based on who wants it more, so to speak.

So obviously every warlock is going to have every piece of Felheart as a priority 1 on their list.
What I see that is lacking in the system is how do those managing the loot system assign the prority rotation from there. Today you simply approve that I have requested an item with priority 1. If 3 other Warlocks want the item a rotation system needs to be put into place.
Is this going to be part of the new support for the system?
Since your now mainly just updating Items Received and a Priority list will that automatically update and remove the item from a persons priority list or is it something you can plan to build into the next versions of Priority Loot?

Not quite, since you can only have one of each rank, so they're forced to pick a rank.
Generally speaking though, in my experience, setting a priority list like that is really only applicable when there are a few items to get from the instance, like if MC is on farm status, but someone STILL wants a mageblade, for example. I wouldn't clutter the priority system with 15 different levels of wanting an item, since obviously, when you're starting a new instance, everyone wants everything. It's really only useful for "finishing off" an instance.
But yes, some of the things you mention are indeed being planned on. Unfortunately, expanding the priority loot system is pretty low priority at this point.

You might want to check this functionality then as I think it is bugged. I was able to establish all my Felheart items as Priority 1. There was no restriction to setting an item to a specific unique priority per individual.
Also is there a reason why the only drop down is currently "Non Instance"? It would be very helpful if you can update this or fix it quickly so that it shows all the instances today and an option for "Quest" along with Non Instance.

Interesting. As for the "Non-Instance" being the only option, those are defined in the "Destinations" section of the DKP Section.

Ah that could explain it. Let me check as I bet we have not locations defined in our loot system yet.
