If you think GS is total bullshit, get out. :frog: I think I've seen 5800, somewhere around there, but I've definately seen 5700.
It is bullshit. [B]Edit:[/B] Rated myself disagree.
Since my server is obsessed with GearScore :sigh: I think it's around 5.8-5.9 or something.

It's an addon which measures the capabilities of your gear with a number.
Best tank in my realm has 6053 GS

No, Gearscore IS bullshit. GS isn't even a viable method of knowing someones skill.
Gear Score add on is a really good add on and it does the job it suppose to do just fine. It's not suppose to show you how good someone is. It's just there to show you a number that represent the quality of your gear. Nothing more nothing less.
To be honest, gearscore isnt SKILL per-say but to get those items require some skill therefore i only look for it to see if they are geared enough for raids
[QUOTE=reedbo;19353707]No, Gearscore IS bullshit. GS isn't even a viable method of knowing someones skill.[/QUOTE] people wouldn't let me come to a ToC10 even though I did 4.5k dps at a 4.4k-ish GS. thats single target.
GearScore isn't about seeing how good someone's skill is, everyone in the FP Wow forum is so thick. When did I ever say it was for skill?
This has been said over and over again. [b] GEAR SCORE IS A MEASURE OF HOW POTIENTIALLY GOOD A RAID MEMBER CAN BE[/b] That is all it is.

Never seen it because I dont use shitty addons like that. Serves no purpose, I would rather just go and inspect them if I wanted to see there gear and then make my own judgement thanks.
[QUOTE=Sharpshooter;19387137]Never seen it because I dont use shitty addons like that.

Precisely, as flawed as GearScore is and as much as I hate the people who rely on it, it is a handy little time saver that can be useful.
I've been using wow heroes for gearscoring now, since my out of date gearscore addon shows up as banned, i dont wanna risk getting into troubleusing a newer one. And i can use wow heroes to view anyone on any realm and compare myself to them. Its just better
5800ish
GearScore woudln't be bullshit if people used it for the original purpose it was created for. Average WoW player: GearScore = Skill Smart WoW Player: Skill > GearScore Fact: Most officers are smarter then the Guild Master.
My guild uses gearscore to filter out the rabble. We know that our guild's members are good, but we have no way to estimate the skill of "that guy that whispered you."
My gearscore is 3100, And my guild said it was too low... Half of the guild had 2000-2800
I'm at 5500 now, highest I've seen is 5850.
