The reason we have a reserved loot list is because a select few items have a significant effect on the guilds ability to raid and how effective we are if the items go first to certain classes. Reserved list items can either be specific items or a class of items. If you won a shield or any other item that only goes in one slot in the current expansion via a reserved bid win, you can not enter another reserved bid for the same slot of the same type until the next expansion is released.
We have 2 tiers of reserved item bids for tanks, war's belong to tier 1 and sk/pal's to tier 2, after that the item will go to general category bids. This is because some of the encounters you win or loos depending on the gear/AC of the war when running defensive disc.
There is a limit to the number of items you can win from the Priority bid item category for a character of a total of 5. After that you can not bid via the Priority bid rules until the next expansion.
Since some items are best in slot for a few expansions from Velious and Beyond, all previouse priority loot lists are in effect if we og back to older content for raids.
If an item falls in to two or more different class categories, the order is as follows: Tank -> cle -> Everyone else
After a person reaches the max benefits they can get from a stat they can no longer use priority bids for that type of item. For example:
*If you have FT 15 and the max for the current expansion is FT 15.
*Heroic Stamina 35 that gives you 35 Shielding
*Heoric Agility 34 that gives you 100 Avoidence
*Heoric Dextarity 38 that gives you 150 accuracy
*and so on

General priority bid list:
Heoric STA
Tanks -> Everyone else
Heroic AGI
Tanks -> Everyone else
Heroic DEX
Heroic dex helps both with doing more damage, but also your chance to parry/Dodge and so on, so both pure melee DPS and tanks have use for this, but at the start, DPS probably have more benefit from it so they will be prioritised
rangers/monks/rogues/berzerkers -> tanks -> Everyone else
Nuke Focus
Wizards -> Mage's -> Everyone else
DOT Focus
necro -> druid/shaman -> everyone else
