Terra what server do you play on? I'm in a guild with a Dranei mage named Terra. Whatakawinkydink
If those are wow heroes gear scores those dpsers all suck.
QFT. I got ripped my first pass in (non-Heroic!!) HoR because at the time, my DK had a Gearscore of something like 3500. Still out-DPSed everyone in the group (at a lowly 2800 DPS). *shrug*
If you know your roll, you can do fine. If you suck, you suck no matter how good your gear is.
gear score does not take into account how good someone's gear actually is. It is just weighted average item level. I have 5733 GS but I guarantee I could do more DPS if I could take my pick of any items in the game while keeping my GS below 5500. Item level isn't everything. It especially doesn't place enough value on trinkets which should be weighted almost as highly as your weapon but are currently valued only as highly as a ring.
Gearscore is dumb. Its one of the things I wish wasn't in the game and I instantly look down on someone for talking about it.
Granted not everyone using Gearscore is a moron, but its one of things that just dumb down the game and I dislike it. Top players know, and will always know a person's gear level at an inspect and won't need an useless mod to help them.
The reason I dislike it so much is not only because people are SO depend on gearscore on some servers, but also because it promotes faggotry such as taking a loot solely based on its itemlevel and not by the actual upgrade or wellness of the item. Its fucking stupid when someone says "he has higher gearscore than you so you can't come do this." Thank god the servers I'm on rarely use gearscore and actually use brains.

Meh, you can only do so much with blues and greens, its great for weeding out retards, and plate dps warriors using plate gear with +spellpower (which I get far to often).
I'll let a players performance determine their net worth, but i'll never kick someone just based on GS alone
