I currently “main” a condi PS Warrior in our raid team and was wondering what people felt was a decent number for cPS dps? I have been to QT’s site of course and follow the build and I do pretty well having hit 22k on some fights (Gors, MO, etc.) and most times hover around the 15-17k marks although I have dipped into the scary 10k and under realm a few times (Samarog fight, just hate his ass as he is always moving around facing different directions so makes it hard to nail any rotations) But, is that enough? Somehow I can’t help but think I suck in terms of dps but then I have to remind myself that I am there mostly for what I bring, the banners and such.
Should my focus be on staying alive (well duh, that’s a given, but yea) and am I ok to “accept” my fate as not being the big hitter? Others (cPS) can and have done quite a bit more than me but I chalk that up to lag and playstyle mostly as I still tend to be a clicker, although I am getting better. 10 years of WOW as a tank so yea, this game is a whole different ballgame when it comes to playstyle.
So basically I am just asking what others feel is a good spot for a condi PS to be in a raid, not taking the benchmarks into play as we all know an actual Boss fight is a hugely different beast. Am I ok with the numbers I am getting or should I even bother checking my dps as its not all about that with my role? Or, am I sucking big time and should I step up my game and “get gud”….. lol?
Thanks all…any help/suggestions/etc. will be most appreciated and applied if possible!

It really depends on the buff uptimes, chrono invuls, other people’s dps etc.

Some rough numbers (for pugs) although that i would consider okay (boss dps on every boss according to ArcDPS and not cleave):
VG: 10k+
Gorseval: 12k+
Sabetha: 14k+
Sloth: 11k+
Matthias: 10k+
KC: 11k+
Xera: 10k+ (w/o porting, tho i dont rly watch xera logs, so might be different)
Cairn: 15k+ (if not getting agony)
Mursaat: 20k+
Samarog: 8k+
Deimos: 9k+ (with everyone staying mid, tank at side), 11k+ if you can stay melee

Again this is for pugs and even with them you can do more dps than these numbers.

And yes you should bother checking your dps (and might uptime), you are there to drop banners, give might (mostly passively) and dps as much as you can, you dont really have any other things to do.

THANKS heaps for that! just the info I was looking for as I am well within those “benchmarks” for sure! And yea, I check my might uptime and such as like you say, I am there to provide the buffs to help and then dps my butt off best I can. But now I don’t feel as much a waste of pixels and have targets to try and get higher than! Cheers!

The important thing to remember is qt uses golem numbers for benchmarks. If you look at their weekly kill videos on their channels you can see the actual boss dps in each encounter. Obviously numbers will be far higher than pug groups due to better strats and buffing but you can get a reasonable idea.

Also a few weeks ago LOD posted their spreadsheet for dps on each boss so you can see their data too.

Thanks for that Nike! I will take at look at them!
