Default Re: Zone wide DPS

Zonewides have to include EVERY mob in the zone. Otherwise what's the point. If someone is doing pots then their zonewide drops, who cares. The point is how your RAID does through the zone really and then followed by how the members do. Zonewides are pissing contests so excluding mobs is BS.

how fast does your guild finish the zone lol, or how long were you in combat- if we double pulled 2 encounters and waited for specials on every fight (2-5 min) specials I can see it going up a whole lot. we might try it. but right now we finish it in about 19-21 min

The time Rampagious is talking about we were in zone for roughly 25 mins of combat there is no waiting for specials, there is pull dead pull dont wait for mana buffs anything so i think that answers your question. I would say roughly 3-5 seconds between pulls unless waiting for things to path.

sry don't agree with this at all. Why include any aoe fights then, that's advantageous for the aoe classes and would be innacurate representation of ones dps. some fights are harder for certain classes, shouldn't tailor it to look better for a 'zone' parse

Default Re: Zone wide DPS

I was under the impression that doing dps was a measure of skill

Basically your saying every fight up to the last mob where you don't have to worry about dying, holding back or anything is the measure of dps, and the last fight where you actually have to pay attention isn't.


Disso dps > strike dps

This has to be one of the most fucked up statements ever. Enough for me to post even, and break that zero. Good job.

Default Re: Zone wide DPS

Then WTF do you parse in say labs?

Can't do Pardas cause he pops 2 out of encounter adds. How unfair swashies will be at such an advantage due to hurricane omgz. Doom trio has a memwipe? Unfair to casters they get whacked! Uncaged has a fear OMG that so drops DPS cause I can't cast! Eyeball1 can't be damaged by melee, UNFAIR! Corsolander KBs, UNFAIR! Vyemm knocks up, OH NOES! Brigands so pwn all of this with AR if it happens to trigger.. Such whine, ZW = ZW not ZW - anything that might hurt your DPS and make you look like you suck ass.

Oh and can we cut off adds too? I don't have any PB spells so it's pretty damn unfair kthx. At least it's just your guild that seems to think that way, I'll know which 'ZWs' I can ignore from now on.

Who cares if they do or don't. That's completely besides the point I was trying to make.
