Adps is a pointless metric, a jobs dps buffs are a part of their damage contribution. Raid buffs might be skewed depending on the number of players in the partyn but there are always at least three other party members in any valid content, and frankly all significant content (even if it's not savage) is still 8 man content.

It would be one thing if a 'selfish' dps job could compete with the rdps of others in a 4 man but not an 8 man, but even that's not the case for MCH.
