For example on Rage Winterchill we move out of Death and Decay, I often take this opportunity to help top my group off, or give people instructions(I am leading the raid). Arkadu gains a little DPS time on the mob each time I do this. Me not doing this would not reduce my DPS in any way, in fact it would probably increase it. If you look at the Rage parse Arkadu has 100% DPS Time while I have 93%. That means that for 93% of my presence in the log I was actually dealing damage.

The DPS number WWS lists is the average DPS the player did over the period of time they were actually attacking the mob.



Did you even think this through? Do you understand how high this number would be if what you were saying was correct?



Do you understand that a fully debuffed boss has half that amount of armor or less in a raiding environment? Also, Yo's! simulator doesn't account for some things like multiple Bloodlusts, Expose Weakness, Improved Hunter's Mark etc.
