In the second half of the tier (by then you no longer need experts tomes) 1x 24mans per week.
Even the "casualst" of casuals can do it.
Yes, if you compare to WoW, you should compare a person that only plays one class, else, you have to compare altoholics to omni class fighters. Naturally, they will either have to do WAY more, or have weaker gear because they split their tomes/limited playtime.
BTW: do not ignore crafted gear. It is easy to get decent gear for all your played classes. Sure, you will be 20 ilvls behind fully decked savage raiders but you're still not as gimped as a non raider in WoW. Esp if you overmeld.
Your weapon is only worse if you compare yourself to people that cleared the content. Most groups don't kill the last one until late into the cycle and 5 item levels on the weapon are hardly noticeable.
Gear does indeed feel somewhat underwhelming but I take an underwhelming treadmill to the never ending, RNG infested madness that is WoWs gearing any day.
