Laugh at me,

Laugh at me, you heartless beast!

Yeah well, I'll make sure to stick a note on my monitor before the Ulduar raid then: '
CAT SPEC YOU MORON!'

I was well know for tanking in my cat gear back in BC back when we actually had a Def cap we need to reach :P
Now I'm know for DPSing in my pvp gear... I'm never going to get away from that.

*BUMP*
Meh, so I didn't have any Ignis screen shot to post. But... I managed to break my own lvl 80 target dummy record.
5023 DPS
. The obvious explanation is RNG and lucky crits + clearcasts. But still... 5K DPS all by myself -
I haz a happee ^,,^
And all this with Agility sockets (and 341 ArP rating from gear).

*BUMP AGAIN*
This time with more numbers, as others have said. Compared my DPS with the other feral @ Vezax for the third time. This time no more walls of text, just one nice graphical presentation. Long story short, I did 9% more total damage than him, 8.43% more DPS than him.
6067 DPS (Agility based) vs 5595 DPS (ArP based)
So ArP isn't the best choice in raid conditions and for fights that last more than 3 minutes (usually that's the threshold where his damage starts to fall behind mine; I must note, however, that for the first minute or so, he had a solid DPS lead, following the starting Berserk). Agility is just as good (if not better).
And probably my 2xT7 + 2xT8 gear setup proves to be better than his 4xT8. I also tested 4xT8 setup and I couldn't get over 4600-4700 DPS on lvl 80 dummy. However with 2xT7 + 2xT8 I can consistently pump 4900 and up to 5000 DPS on the same dummy.
Empirical evidence thus showed me that Toskk's DPS calculator is right about 2xT7 + 2xT8 being a better DPS gear combo than 4xT8.

Oh and yeah... you have 341 arp rating with a 953 rating on proc. Indeed. He has that trinket as well. The close analysis shows that he isn't actually taking advantage of all his energy for Shreds (which should be his number one damage source by far) and he keeps refreshing Rake before it expires.
I
did
do 9% more damage than him. I'm waiting for a sample from you (on Vezax). And I'll make sure to post next week's Ignis encounter as well. I plan to reach at least 7K DPS if I am to prove Agility to be close to ArP.
For fun's sake,
comparison between your gear and my gear.
KEK you even have 100+ more base agility than I do.

I have a feeling that if we kill Ignis in ~4 minutes as well, then I might end up doing less damage than you. But we'll wait and see.
The important thing is for Ignis to allow me to perform optimally by not bathing my tail in the Slag Pot.

Meh. At least you guys get to raid 25man properly. I'm suffering 25man PuGs.
And because of that, I only manage around
5.1k DPS on Ignis
. WTB better gear.
Post by
Aadramelekh
Aww, poor poor little elf :"(
Most PuGs are indeed a pain to roll with. I only PuG some Obsidian Sanctum / Naxxramas heroic from time to time for some extra valor emblems (BoE bracers money maker) and I have had my fair share of nervous breakdowns.
/pat
You do have a pretty nice gear anyway, and there's always room to strive for better performance. You should get over 5.5K DPS.
Give me a 'K'! Give me an 'I'! Give me a 'T'! Give me a 'T'! Give me an 'Y'! Goooo,
kitty
! Hip hip hooray!
Ahem... sorry >_>
