4.05 DPS Ranking Expectations

[Chronons]

If you stack properly, you can dodge puddles and still attack the boss from left or right. Melee can do damage while moving as well so you dont lose any damage dodging mechanics around bosses. If blm have to stop casting for dodging mechanics, it is more dps loss than that melee have to hit one positional from the wrong side. Now we even have true north for mechanics where you can not hit positionals.

Oh wow, some of you are seriously going to argue that casters have equal uptime to melee. Yes, it is true that if you do this mechanic in a certain way with the entire raid co-operating you can make it so that melee have equal uptime with casters. That doesnt invalidate the main point. It is generally true that casters are less punished by mechanics than melee, hence the reason for them generally having higher damage.
