Original Post:

I am an avid user of Rawr...I really appreciate having the tool available to help me plan what I link for in raids.

Just wanted to drop a wall of text post with both a question, and a feature suggestion.

The question I have may be noobish but still...say my current baseline gearset is 1000 DPS and I am at or over the 17% hit cap. Then lets say I get a big weapon upgrade that drops my hit but raises my DPS significantly. Even after trying to close the hit gap with trinkets, gems, etc, I am still below the hit cap at 15% say, but my DPS is now 1050 say.

Basically is 1000 DPS at 17% hit > 1050 DPS at 15%? Just using round numbers not to scale on the deltas.
If Rawr is telling me my overall DPS is higher, but I am not hit capped, should I ignore Rawr in that case?

The feature suggestion that I have is building in the ability to filter gear based on raid content.
I would LOVE to have a checkbox that would filter out TOC 25man heroic loot, or Ulduar 25man heroic loot.
That way when the loot drops I can just click and see what is a good upgrade, and not visually filter heroic items.
My game plan since I have been using it is to prep ahead of the raid...this feature would save a lot of time.

Along the same vein it would be nice if faction specific loot could be filtered...thinking of TOC of course.

Thanks in advance for answers to my question, and for reading my feature suggestion.
