This doesn't mean your badass, it means that they're not up to par or you have lots of overhealing. A resto druid will own on 10 mans and a paly should out heal you on any fight where tanks take a lot of the damage.
In our 10m BoT full clear this week we had a sham/paly/druid setup and I ended the raid with a HPS of around 8k. Pally and druid were both around 10k. ( we had 2 wipes on Cho'gal and one one the dragons). I could have pulled 10-11k if i wanted to, but there was no reason. A pally will have a easier time keeping the tank up and if a toon has druid hots rolling on it you don't need to GWH them to 100%.
As far as mastery goes it's really not that great of a stat. However, if your crit is about as good as you can get with gear and you don't have mana problems then it does help. On fights like council phase 3 mastery does help a lot, same for phase 2 cho'gal. But if you have any sort of mana issues then spi/crit would be a better stat. The haste cap is easy to get to with even heroic 5 man gear, but more can't hurt.
