    You know what the problem with this is? That Dps are the most unreliable players in the game. The absolute hardest part of any end-game encounter (savage or otherwise) is not the Tank busters, or the AoE mitigation, or even the boss mechanics. The hardest part is finding 4 Dps who actually know how to rotate their highest possible Dps while not standing in stupid. I've seen enough fail Dps squads to know that you cannot trust the Dps to sign their checks on their own.

    I could, in all honesty say the same about tanks and healers in their own roles. Though, I don't trust any player unless I've played with you before. I expect everyone to fall flat on their face. Unless you are well known (in a good way) or I'm proven otherwise. (Or someone I trust vouches for the person). If they do prove me wrong, I am pleasently surprised.

    Nature of the game I suppse at this point.
