So, what you're basically saying is: you know you're wrong but don't want to admit it.

Because when you say "It is not my fault you seriously think class DPS can only be determined by gathering group data.", that's just a cowardly gesture to avoid the reality of your remarks.

You cowardly proclaim "unreliable variables with teammates" when faced with the fact that shaman is completely outclassed by mage in the group DPS role.

Even if what you say is true, then how does the parse of your solo DPS have any merit either?

In either case, you're just a cowardly scumbag too afraid to concede.

You are completely misconstruing what I am asking.

If I parse really well on my Shaman because I have a group of amazing players, and the Mage parses average because their group is just average, that alone will skew the data. It is not an accurate representation of the DPS difference. This would work AGAINST the Mage, so I don't think you would want that.

The reason why you parse solo is because it removes all external variables, so you can get the true average DPS between the classes. That is the first step in determining the average difference between the classes.

Once you have that, you can take it a step further by trying to prove how easy/hard it is to hit those numbers in a group. However, you would need to have the same group for both the Shaman and the Mage to rule out the possibility that differences are caused by the difficulty of the class, and not the group members.

This is how you run experiments. You don't just test everything at once without knowing what variables are affecting which outcome.
