[QUOTE=steellz;53747130]If you can not do bare minimum 10k dps as ret you are not playing correctly. Period.

You are really not that smart or do not know how % increase works on wow. It is not a linear increase, some abilities are multiplicative meaning their % increase is higher. An ability that is multiplicative will do more by each % increase than an addative one. Many WW abilities are multiplicative meaning for each % increase to ability it is actually much highet overall.

Incorrect. Sim it for yourself, a 4% buff to ww abilities sims around 2.5% total dps buff, not the 10-15% you stated. Yes, if all actions by the monk had an aura buff increase of 4%, the total damage would be higher than 4% due to multiplicative calculations, however, not all actions are being buffed so you are combining them inappropriately. Feel free to sim the differences and actually see how the math works out for yourself without berating someone when you are just assuming.
For the 4% ability buff, it only buffs abilities. It does not buff melee attacks, trinkets, emeni fleshcraft, karma/tod, bron/kevin. The buffs are ONLY about abilities. So total damage could logically become less than 4%, but don't just take my word for it, sim it yourself. If you refuse to sim, check with the community, but if you still think your mental math checks out, check this next week and see if the max dps on patchwork for ww monks at 283 ilvl is at 15400-16100 if you were right, instead of 14400-14600 that it should be.

[QUOTE=h8ryan;53747137]I can almost 100% guarantee that you aren't very good at raiding/M+/or pvp
if anything, ret does more damage than the majority of other melee speccs in the game right now, they are definitely viable, they just don't bring a buff/debuff/mobility to cheese mechanics or synergize with a whole raid comp

Pally can burst sure, you're telling me ilvl 270+ 4set, x2 lego pallys should be pulling 10k? LOL
[QUOTE=steellz;53748642] yeah. logs show they pull more than 10k on single target fights. the ret pally in my group does around 12-13k single target raid bosses. 15-20k on m+bosses. and thats average. not when you get lucky with procs. burst to around 40-50k on trash in M+. he is 272, 4 piece, kyrian.
Yeah, that's just wrong. I would encourage you to try and be a bit more informed before stooping to insulting someone else's intelligence. Others have called you out, and the sims bear out that you are wrong. It would be good for you to watch some videos about what causes scaling. Izen Hart has some decent discussion videos about what scaling really is. Hint: its not flat damage aura mods.
I'll stop if I don't see any threads made by hunters (of any kind) anymore. But literally every hotfix the first comment is "buff BM!" or a DH whining.
Also: just play MM or Survival or stfu. Every player playing a class with 3 DPS specs should be able to play all 3. Or if you're DH: I don't get your problem.

So, it is up to you on whether a problem is valid or not? Or are you arguing that you're the only one allowed to complain? Because neither is a valid outcome or premise. BM has a legitimate reason to request a buff and the data supports it.
You are not the arbiter on what spec people should or shouldn't play either. It sounds like you need to step back and examine your premise and priorities. You clearly are angry for seemingly either imagined reasons or at best arbitrary ones. That doesn't sound conducive to your mental well-being.
