Incoming unpopular opinion:
The moment a player clears a raid tier, they should stop the gear grind. They don't need it. The concept of BiS is plain silly. If you just beat the hardest enemy the game has to offer at that time, why pursue BiS at that point? There is nothing to use that new gear on. And... by the time a new "hardest enemy" is out there, new gear comes out anyway. On top of that, you can get gear 10 iLvl higher than the previous raid gear on Day 1.
More like an out-of-touch opinion, as DSR is tuned for i600, so naturally clearing savage and farming the gear towards BiS is the admission ticket to ultimate while the tier is relevant.
