Wolfsark, in relation to your locks ...

Jonessoda: is woefully undergeared for Brutallus and shouldn't be in the raid. T4 chest and Moroes cloak, rep pendant. If you're not packing T6 4-piece bonus, then you really must have best in slot choice pieces from other tiers. His gemming is also sub-optimal. The only socket bonus worth gemming for is +dmg and sometimes it's better to ignore even that with nothing but pure spinels depending on the piece.

Deszo has the right gear but I don't know why his damage is lower than it should be. His hit rating is too low, but WWS doesn't show a bad miss rate so that's not it. His top crit is just over 9.5K, with his gear it should be over 10K or more with both Shadow Vuln and CoS up. Is he properly buffed (food, flasks etc)? Trinket use looks OK, although I'd expect 1 more Silver Crescent probably. His gemming on a few pieces could be improved, but it's only a marginal issue - it shows more about understanding how gear works more than anything else.

Also, all casters should be using Darkmoon Card Crusade over the badge trinket, if you're raiding at that level there's no excuse not to spend the gold to get it.
