Guess what?!? I got kicked from a normal pug raid (ring upgrade run) after one wipe on normal Manny. I got thrown off in phase 4 after due to bad positioning. The raid leader inspected me, saw the dps ring and kicked me. He then proceeded to ridicule me, etc. I explained that AskMrRobot recommended this due to the high iLvL difference (My dps ring was ~ 780 and my tanking one was only ~735. He did the typical 'learn to play' crap and 'Icy Veins' is crap etc. etc. What a jackass. Then again, not surprised from a pug.
I'm glad to see I'm not the one with this question. I'm also glad to see there is some justification to use the dps ring given the iLvl difference. Thanks for the post.
