Wanting to make the most out of your character is a good thing. The more damage anyone does = the less time the raid has to fight the boss, which is the most important thing.


Yoshi literally said that raid encounter boss HP is based on the damage dealt by: DPS in their normal rotation at MINIMUM iLVL and tank in tank stance using enmity combo. Then they subtract 15%. Healer DPS and main tank stance dancing or using DPS combo are not factored in.
