    How is looking at guides cheating? A lot of times, they have done more math at the best possible rotation then you ever will because it is a collection of people working on it then one individual. In my opinion, you are gimping yourself by not using resources available to help improve your game-play.

    It's the same as looking at someone elses sheet for the answers. Just because it's a resource, doesn't mean you should use it. I don't do the math at all. I do what feels and seems right and logical and it's good enough for me. I'm not here to be a perfectionist and copy what others do, even if it's the most optimal rotation. Now, if I was horrible and not one of the top DPS in my raid groups, maybe I would look for help but I don't need it.

    We just live on two different worlds then because I say fuck ethics. If I see a resource whether it is a cheat sheet or someone's else answers, I will take take advantage of it and use it. Being honorable and just gets you nowhere in this world, only the ones who bend the rules survive.

    It's not about ethics. It's about accomplishing something on my own without a crutch. I am good enough without having to rely on other people and take a short cut. If you're happy with letting people do the work then go for it. I guess...but this isn't the real world; it's a video game.
