Well, for one, based on your posts, the first thing you need to do first is get used to playing DRK at a high level raid area. You can't possibly compare unless you have enough experience on that job to even consider taking it into endgame like that. You get this practice from the normal raids. Then, once you have the experience and the necessary min ilvl to even enter Savage, that is when you want to start doing comparison. Can't jump straight into comparison on a savage raid that starts at ilvl 370, when you haven't even met the prerequisites to even enter it in the first place. FFLOGs does not track ilvl. I dunno why, but it just doesn't track ilvl. You say that you want a benchmark, but in this scenario, that's essentially the same as making a comparison because it sounds like you want to meet a standard that you should have started back in February when everybody was in the 340-370 range. You want a benchmark for current content, now is a good time to look at those DRK logs before people start getting their full BiS.

You want a benchmark for 360? Best thing I can tell you is to look through the stats for 4.2. I just looked and the average at present for DRKs for Phantom Train Savage is 3k DPS - those are the 20th percentile averages. So there's your benchmark. 3k for DRK DPS. 50th percentile for the same job sits at around 3.5k - 3.6k.
