Original Post:
my biggest pet peeve with spreadsheets, is that i've found that theyre so inaccurate or biased toward one or another spec. For example, i went looking for a resto druid spreadsheet and i found one that was written post BC. I thought, 'great, i can finally start crunching numbers to try different things out.'

however, it was so biased toward dreamstate as to leave out 75% of the tree druid talents yet INCLUDED all the balance spec talents. Then it still went so far as to compare tree druid heals to dreamstate heals, even though over half of the tree druid talents were not represented whatsoever. Even the ones that were represented, were represented incorrectly.

What that meant was, the graphs would always come out skewed against TOL, no matter what you did, simply because TOL was misrepresented so badly. So, however much i'd like to use a spreadsheet, i'll always be leery of using one for this reason.
