=== Controls and Limitations ===

−

A party can only have 5 characters and only 1 can be the leader. The leader cannot keep a member in the party if he wants to leave, but can remove a member.

−

=== Leadership ===

−

The [[leader]] of the party can [[invite]] new members to the party, [[uninvite]] current members to remove them from the party, or [[Promote to Leader|promote]] another party member to be leader.

−

The leader can set the [[#Looting|loot level]] and the [[#Looting|loot quality threshold]] to control how loot gets distributed.

−

As with any party member, the leader can also [[Leave Party|leave the party]]. In this case, another player will be chosen at random to become the new leader.

−

=== Communication ===

−

Party members communicate with:

−

<code>/party ''<message>''</code>

−

or

−

<code>/p ''<message>''</code>.

−

=== Invitation, Removal, Leaving and Promotion ===

−

Anybody can form a party (thus becoming the leader) by inviting some who isn't already in a party.

−

==== How to Invite ====

−

The would be leader can invite members to a party with:

−

* <code>/invite ''<character_name>''</code>

−

** <code>/i</code> or <code>/inv</code> also work.

−

:– OR –

−

* Right-click the character's portrait and select '''Invite'''.

−

:– OR –

−

* Right-click the character's name (<nowiki>[</nowiki>''<character_name>''<nowiki>]</nowiki>) in [[chat]] and select '''Invite'''.

−

==== How to Remove ====

−

A party leader can remove (also known as "boot" or "kick") members from a party with:

−

* <code>/kick ''<character_name>''</code>

−

** <code>/u</code>, <code>/un</code>, or <code>/uninvite</code> also work.

−

:– OR –

−

* Right-click the character's portrait and select '''Uninvite'''.

−

:– OR –

−

* Right-click the character's name (<nowiki>[</nowiki>''<character_name>''<nowiki>]</nowiki>) in [[chat]] and select '''Uninvite'''.

−

==== How to Promote ====

−

A party leader can make another member the leader with:

−

−

** <code>/pr</code> also works.

−

:– OR –

−

* Right-click the character's portrait and select '''Promote to leader'''.

−

:– OR –

−

* Right-click the character's name (<nowiki>[</nowiki>''<character_name>''<nowiki>]</nowiki>) in [[chat]] and select '''Promote to leader'''.

−

=== Experience ===

−

Dividing [[XP]] among party members is an arcane calculation known only to [http://www.blizzard.com/support/wowgm/?id=agm01005p Blizzard] (and those who share the secret) based on the various [[level]]s of the party members, the level of the killed mob, and other factors.

−

=== Looting ===

−

Also see [[Loot#Looting While In A Party|Looting While In A Party]] under [[Loot]].

−

''This section is mostly stolen from the [[Newbie Guide]]. -[[User:Fandyllic|- Fandyllic]]''

−

[[Looting]] and [[loot]] [[drop]]s in World of Warcraft are fairly straightforward. If the corpse of a monster has gold sparkles on top of it, it means there's something on the corpse that you can loot. Once you loot a corpse, if you don't take everything off it, everyone else in your group will have the option to loot.

−

There are a few different looting types in parties called the ''[[Loot Level|loot level]]'' or ''loot option'' that can be set by the party leader by right-clicking on his own portrait in the upper left. Two of these types are affected by the ''[[Loot Quality Threshold|loot quality threshold]]'', also set by the leader (the threshold can be set to Uncommon, Rare, or Epic). If an item is equal or higher quality than the loot quality threshold, party members are given the option to '''Roll''' (from 1 - 100) to get the item or '''Pass'''.

−

Money loot is always shared in a party regardless of loot type. However, if a party member is out of range when a monster is killed, and so did not contribute to the kill, he will not receive a share of any gold found on a corpse and will not be able to roll for any special items found.

−

; Free for All : Anyone can loot any item off any [[corpse]] killed by the group.

−

; Round Robin : Group members take turns looting corpses as they are killed; they are allowed to loot all items from a corpse.

−

; Master Looter : Only the designated [[master looter]] (set by the party [[leader]] by right-clicking on any member's portrait) may loot corpses first. For any item that is of the same or better type than the threshold, when the master looter attempts to loot it, he will see a dropdown list of all the party members' names. He can select a person from that list to assign the item to him.

−

; Group Loot : This is the default type for a group. Looting takes place the same as in Round Robin looting. However, for any item that is of the same or better type than the threshold, all members in the party will get a rolling window with the item and two buttons. Party members can press the dice button to NEED [[roll]] for the item, or the gold coin to [[Greed]] roll for the item, or lastly the red X close button to pass on the item. The looting will first resolve all NEED rolls, if none then Greed rolls. The member with the highest roll will get the item automatically placed in his inventory. It is often recommended that the group set out guidelines for what to roll on and what not to roll on when using Group Loot. A general rule of thumb is to not NEED roll on something you are not going to equip as soon as pick it up.

−

; Need Before Greed : Similar to Group Loot, only this mode follows a system of only allowing party members to roll on an item if it 'can be used' by them. There are flaws with this system, both in the code itself and with regards to limitations of the system itself. It is recommended that you use 'Group Loot' in lieu of Need Before Greed, and simply clarify to people what they should and shouldn't roll on beforehand.

−

:''I find that even with it's flaws, Need Before Greed works pretty well and reduces extra chatter and trading when folks pick up stuff they can't use or see someone pickup something they can't use, but someone in the party can use. If people just want stuff to [[junk]] later on, use Group Loot. -[[User:Fandyllic|- Fandyllic]]''

−

:''The big problem I have with Need Before Greed is that when I first ran [[the Deadmines]] (at level 16), I was given (by the lootmaster) both [[Smite's Mighty Hammer]] and [[Edwin VanCleef]]'s [[Cruel Barb]]. I could not at the time use it, but I have been using the Barb ever since I turned 19. If it had been Need Before Greed, I would not have won that. But I do admit I rather like not having to press 'Pass' on so many items, which I do so frequently because my bags are usually nearly full. -- [[User:D. F. Schmidt|D. F. Schmidt]] [[user talk:D. F.
