Let's talk about cata and about raid only and about boss fights only cause only there it really matters. So decurse what? And even if you have to decurse healers should do it if in any case possible. Another question is interrupt what? Mages shouldnt really be on interrupt casue they have a huge cooldown and they cant interrupt reliably with their huge CD. It's a tank/melee dps job. And for the occasional interrupt it shouldnt matter on dps cause counterspell is off the global CD and even if you have to interrupt a spell half cast in 2-3 occasions it shouldnt be the end of the world. > > I have seen more than 5% loss for some unlucky shadow priests and boomkins > who have to heal themselves and others when the healers are too Busy doing what? If healers cant heal means something is wrong, what if those dps were hunters who cant heal? > busy doing something else. I have seen mages who have to cover other > slackers for the cc. I have seen hunters who have to kite the adds away What boss has CC in cata? Where did those hunters kite adds and when? In Blackwing lair? > to save the raid but lost all DPS on the boss.

Last time I saw the aggro problems was in TBC or where the tank really sucks ;p > Now, tell me if I should be casting curse of tongue instead of element for > max theoretically DPS instead of playing in a team.

We killed maloriak without a lock cause we didnt even have 1 in guild, several times and nothing bad happened. By casting tongues instead of elements you are lowering all magic dps by 8% and making the fight last longer because your melee and tank have slow reflexes to interrupt?
