on last Sunday night, I was missing VOA10 with ICC group (We usually cleared VOA 10 before we moved on to ICC). So, I pugged VOA10 on Monday night. When the time I was spamming on Trade and LFG channel, I received someone whisper asking about GS requirement for VOA10. I was hesitating for couple seconds. I invited that whispered one which was a lock. I checked his gear at Dal. I could tell it was decent with proper gemming even his GS was roughly 4.5k. We pugged, stormed in and cleared all before WG started. I had no doubted that I had invited couple great dps with this group. However, A 4.5k GS lock could do roughly 5k+ dps overall. Not bad, isn’t he?
I am not sure why suddenly GS became the most important issue for PUG. Yes, it is a reference to determine what your gears level are at. But Skill (e.g rotation/knowledge on mechanism) is measurable only if you are in raid (Wow-meter not Recount). With proper spec and rotation, there may have tiny dps difference between a dps with 4.7k GS and a dps with 5.1k GS. Please do not bring GS to raid. IT IS POINTLESS!
