I haven't found a post yet explaining this rumor I'm hearing about Ret turning out to be the worst hybrid dps and bottom end of meters on a raid boss fight, with a skilled and max geared/buffed raid. I also find it hard to believe because I've played with some of the best dps on my server and I consistantly get top 3 on virtually every boss fight. We're of equal gear and skill, and I just dont see how the last couple moderate upgrades left in the game for us will drop me to the low end and keep the others up top. And I'm not talkign about specific fights btw, like affliction locks perfectly geared and buffed with a doomgaurd on patchwork. I'm just talking about overall raid boss dps and where equally skilled ret pallies end up with a max geared raid/guild.
I certainly have found scattered posts about bm hunters, arcane mages, aff locks, and TG warriors being the highest current performers, which is generally true, but I'm neck and neck with them in all of my experiences, save for a good arcane mage in some fights. By the way, I don't necessarily feel that ret deserves to do more max potential dps on a boss than pure dps classes, I just wanna know where people are reading this... and yes I searched here, EJ, WoW forums, and Google, but found nothing definitive.
