Quote:Yeah, not a hunter. Shadow priest. With a snobold on me, I can cast shadow word: pain and devouring plague. And I can use my wand, yay! This cuts my DPS to about 1/4 of normal. With half the raid being tanks and healers, having one DPSer basically out of it means you lose 20% of your dps (for sake of argument - not all DPSers are equal).Well I'll let you know as I have more experience in 10 man. The one I'm now running with I've only run one week with, though we only lost insanity because the hunter (our source of mortal strike) DCed on anub.:(
I can see the argument for leaving one on a melee DPS or a hunter, where the effect isn't as big (and dots plus incidental AOE will probably kill it anyway) or in a 25 (smaller % impact on the raid), but losing a caster DPS in 10 isn't going to work.
