Pretty easy here: He was only dpsing 69% of the time, compared to 89% and 78%. His average fireball was only hitting for 2,096 (extremely low considering a raid setting) at a 15% crit rate (i assume a lot of bad luck), while your top mage had extremely good luck with a fireball crit rate of 50%.

Assuming his armory link is correct, then he needs to work on getting his gear enchanted to start off with, and having him go more for +spell damage on / int on enchants and gems will help more then +stamina.

I suppose I'm at a loss to explain his damage output, myself... is there a particular reason he uses Fiery Weapon beyond not having the cash for Mongoose? (or is there a discussion on this in some other thread?)

What was his group in this kill?

I guess a 6minute kill favors the cooldowns of a Combat spec, and he didn't get any watery graves, but that's still impressive DPS that I'd be interested to break down.

Crit rate is significantly lower then other mages, probably in part of group composition. Your top DPS mage was using Molten Armor, it's likely this one was wearing mage armor. Might have something to do with the 19k mana from the shadow priest.

Poor hit rating is very noticiable.

Spent time to bandage approx 5 times, other mages bandaged once between the 2 of them.
This has to be part of his low prescence. Also used his wand?

Did I see empty sockets when I looked at the armory?

His group was shaman (me, resto -- not enhance), feral druid, warrior, rogue, rogue. As Khazal himself explained earlier, he's waiting on the damned sword from Morogrim, which is his when it drops (and we've never seen one, ugh), and enchanting a Kara weapon doesn't seem worth the mats.

Still, I was impressed by his DPS output. He's usually the #1 rogue, but his numbers on Morogrim were higher than I can recall seeing previously.

Please separate the kill from trash, no one cares about the trash.

Just click on Magtheridon kill on the top left. The log is split.

Uh, try mousing over "Full Report" next to "Split."

Gear is a major factor in some of what I'm seeing. For example, to pick on someone who stood out, Sabere has a solid spec, and clearly was very active during the fight -- very high DoT uptime, very active with his nukes. In terms of player DPS performance, he is your "best" warlock. Just compare his skill use to the others.

But then look at his gear. Aside from being blues/greens, he has no enchants and has socketed +9sta green gems in every slot.

The worst part is that he's a tailor... with 300 tailoring.

If you gave him a set of Frozen Shadoweave, Spellstrike, some Kara gear, badge offhand, etc., he'd be sustaining well over 1000 DPS with his skill usage. But his gear is terrible.

By comparison, Aevista has the gear, but isn't doing nearly as much as he/she should in terms of skill usage.

He's going to like this comment, he hit 70 yesterday.

I was mostly interested in finding ways to raise dps overall since I see WWS logs where rogues are significantly higher than ours. Our warlocks seem to be below par too. And I think most of their gear is pretty good.

Your rogues look fine. You have no shamans. You're never going to match the numbers you see in other parses without windfury, and your warriors will be hurting even more.

I would guess misdirects.
