By low DPS, I mean he pulled 12k with heroism on Beth last night in the phase 2 portion only. I feel he is underperforming his gear. If you want to check his armory, the toon name is Fun alliance side of Areie Peak.

When I first spoke to him regarding his DPS, he tells me "mastery is broken" and the guys that walk toward the target are bugged and do not happen and that the forums are full of people confirming this. Pardon my ignorance of your class and not knowing exactly what that is called. As I tank instances, I see those priest things quite often, so I doubt what he is telling me. If it is working for others, why not him?
I read the sticky spriest guide atop this forum. It made no reference to any buggy class mechanic. It defined a spell priority list quite nicely and includes DoT spells and maintenace of those DoT spells. He tells me something different. My response was, "the top spriests in this game disagree with you."
So my question is simple. Does this spriest guide in this forum generally lead to max or acceptable DPS?
