So you showed a boss who's boss, congrats, now it's time to share the spoils of war!

You can start rolling out an item in multiple ways

1. Alt-Clicking on an item
The most common and easiest way to start rolling out items is to simply hold your alt button and left click an item in your inventory or a corpse's loot window.

2. Using a slash command
Alternatively you can use a slash command followed by the item link (shift click the item): Item Roll Slash Command

You can use one of the following slash commands:
/gl rolloff
/gl roll
/gl ro

3. Drag & Drop or type item into item box
The last option is to drag and drop an item into the masterloot window's item editbox or type it there directly (number 1 in the image below)

The masterloot (aka RollOff) window explained

Down below you can see the RollOff window accompanied with numbers on all points of interests. Here's a list of what's what:

1. This edit box holds the itemlink of the item you're rolling off. The icon to the left of it is updated automatically
2. This button starts the RollOff at which point all your raiders can start rolling
3. This button stops the current RollOff. New rolls are lo longer tracked at this point
4. This edit box holds a note you can add to the RollOff. Some examples are MS/OS or maybe even an item's priority
5. In this edit box you can define how much time your raiders should be allowed to roll on the item
6. This button clears the RollOff window. This might be useful to clear up all of its content if you don't plan on awarding the item
7. After your raiders have rolled you can select one of the rolls in the roll window (number 8) and click this button to award the item 8. This is the window that holds all of the rolls that came in while the RollOff was in progress
9. Here you see all rolls. Whenever a roll is suffixed by a number in square brackets (e.g. [2] ) then that means that it was not this person's first roll. 2 means that this was his second roll, 3 means third etc.
10. With this checkbox enabled the RollOff window will close automatically once you press "Start" (number 2)

Master Looter UI

What do raiders see when I roll out an item?

The first thing your raiders are greeted with is a raid warning or party message:

Raid Warning

Players who have Gargul installed will also be greeted with a small, non-intrusive, roll widget that allows the to easily so what's currently being rolled out:

Roll Widget

What's that extra button I see as a masterlooter?

Whenever you as a masterlooter start a RollOff and then decide to close the RollOff window, or have the "Close this window when roll starts" setting (number 10) enabled, then an additional button will show up that shows the icon of the item you're currently rolling out. Clicking this button will reopen the rolling window, making it very easy to hand out loot "on the go".

Quick Reopen Window

General notes

1. You can safely close the RollOff window after starting a RollOff
2. Only you as a masterlooter have to install the addon, it's optional (but very helpful) for your raiders
3. You can freely move the three elements described here (RollOff window, roller widget and reopen button). Their positions will be remembered
4. Raiders can right-click the roller widget to hide it if they're not interested in the item or disable it completely in Gargul's settings:
