So you put yourself as example Kara startup because you ODed your group?
May I ask how many bosses did you kill in that run and how many tries did it take? How many wipes did you have? How long did it take you? What was your group set up?
In my opinion that would be bit more important than you as individual out dpsing your group.
My guild entered Kara 3 weeks ago, all but one of us for the very first time. So far we had 1 wipe on Maiden, 1 on Curator and 2 on Prince (eternal infernals dropping on our heads excuse of course). We tried Shade once and didnt get him, we didnt try Netherspite yet. We had all 3 Opera events.
(And Attumen didnt drop gloves for me and Prince didnt drop the dagger.)
I do not have my damage meter up because I do not want to be disturbed by it.
I
know I am out dpsing everything that moves on Illhoof because of SoC, I
know I probably do not do amazing dps on Curator because I have AR/sta heavy gear on him and my +damage drops a lot.
What is important for me is that I keep my role of being second on aggro list all the time.
Same goes for fearing the lion in Oz group, I take that as my first duty and dps as second.
I was complimented of being the far top dps on Prince by far, but I didnt ask for actual numbers. I dont care really.
I am doing what I consider the best for my group and to make actual fight go smoother and faster with as less stress on healers I can. If that means my personal dps epeen has to grow smaller, then be it as long as its for the benefit of all.
Too many people think personal dps is what only counts. I am glad I dont have any of such kind in my guild.
