Now, and to a more noticable extent, as gear progresses, rogues and warriors will surpass you in dps. This is partly due to the lack of nonset itemization past SSC, mainly due to better overall scaling of the other classes.

And, to be honest, this is how it needs to be - if i could do as much dps as a rogue, why even bother bringing a rogue ?

Our extremely good ability to offtank (and do reasonable dps afterwards), as well as combatrez, innervate, lotp, motw and other unique abilities (such as our sick threat generation, even when rage starved) are still making up for the dps loss.

As it is now, i can reach 1k dps on a straight tank and spank, our top rogue is doing 1.5k - and i expect that gap to widen.

Apart from that - is there really ANY fight where you are purely dps ? (the one fight i can think of is solarian, and even that only if another druid is tanking) I almost exclusively offtank in bossfights at some point, so i can't afford to wear full dps gear anyways.

Edit: I have to say though that if i had equal gear as the mentioned rogue and an agi totem i daresay i would reach 1.2k dps.
