So it's not enough that you rogues shit up your own threads, you have to do it in the mage threads too?

This is like pointing out that 'oh wait, but what if we had 100% nightfall uptime, and 100% drums of battle uptime, and 100% bloodlust uptime, and only dps during execute range, all the while having a 100% crit rate, mages can scale to infinity!'.

Well yeah. OK. Post Koosha' parse next week and see what I mean. A normal T6 mage raid-buffed and potted crit rate is 40-41%. You're like crying about something that isn't realistically reproducible because it relies on extreme RNG luck. As I said, there is probably less than 2 or 3 parses with that much of a crit rate (given the proper 10/48/3 or 2/48/11 spec). You can get 50%+ crit rate with the horrifically bad 33/28/0, but your dps will also suck, so don't bother posting those.

A rogue hit 3000 dps (on a normal fight, no RoS or shade nonsense) once, one time ever. Furi on kaz`rogal, pre warglaive nerf, and pre haste nerf. It caused an UPROAR, of nerf cries.. even when there was only 2-5 people worldwide with double glaives... as I said before, if with lucky RNG and proper consumables it is even POSSIBLE for a mage to hit 2600~ dps, something is wrong. I am just bitter towards this thread because I have read the mage discussion here for a while now, and remember the posts from mages whining about rogues even being able to with every synergy and lucky rng to hit 2600+ numbers. Those dps numbers were nerfed into oblivion, I am still not doing as much dps as I was pre nerfs, and now mages are in a similar situation, yet you deny that something is wrong... interesting.
