So I kind of stumbled into a guild with my warlock that is running H BRF as a "social member" when I had 0 raiding experience outside of LFR this expansion. So one night they decide to run normal after wiping for awhile and they invite me. Pretty much ever since that night they've been bringing me to raids while acknowledging I need some work on my gear. Anyway, it's been a few weeks of running BRF normal and Heroic and I've gone from a 645 ilvl to 670 ilvl.
There is another lock in the guild who is ilvl 683, so he's obviously got better gear than me. But the difference in dps between him and I is usually like 3-5k and I know that's not a difference of 13 ilvls. I have read as many guides as I can find, watched some videos, etc. I know that on some fights my rotation needs some work to squeeze out more damage. It's just frustrating being near the bottom of dps meters doing between 27-31k most of the time. What the heck am I missing?
Thanks for reading my venting frustration. I probably just need more practice.
