Will I be qualified for 5245gs?

its 300 GS lower for normal ICC 10 man, but I have been farming nonstop EOT's and EOF's for the past 2.5 months daily.
Every piece of gear and weaponry is enchanted and socketed(including hyperspeed Accels, Nitro boost, and extra belt socket).
I have proper glyph's and even use potions, scrolls, and well fed buffs specifically for stat sticking.
All gear is epic.
I practiced and study my rotation for my class, especially I'll top the dps meters between 3-1.
I know every mechanic for TOC boss fights and the first half of ICC(I studied every fight and timeframe extensively everyday for 2-3 hours from guides, videos, and streamers).

This is a silly question but I am desperate to raid and I want to prove it. Will this be enough or do I need to farm 2-3 months more to acquire what I need for 5500gs?

This is my character, even if she is not overly geared I've spent nearly 5000 gold to make sure she was top notch.

You do have few PvP pieces, and for raiding purposes, they aren't optimal.

The gear's solid.

The problem is indeed the gear requirements of the next steps: ToC 25 and ICC.
Few things that could increase overall GS: ICC rep ring (ilvl 251), ICC BoE Chest (264), ICC epic craft legs and boots (264's). Costly, but you're at the stage where you have to improve GS, while not having enough GS to meet (inflated) GS requirements. Yeah, GS 5.2 - 5.5 is pain.

If you can get into guild, you should be accepted to raid quite soon.

You should be able to do toc10/25 easy. I'd try and get in a icc10/25 raid last day before reset (Tuesday) when everyone is desperate to do the raid before reset. Usually they'll lower the GS req some.

I?ll take you in my icc raids, will text you ingame

get rid of pvp gear. very few will tolerate that in icc raids. frankly 5.2 is still too low for icc to meet dps requirements. I suspect the most you would do is 5k dps and that really isn't enough for icc 10 even. should be 7k+. Like above reply said, try to sneak into raids last day when requirements become suspect and leaders desperate to do raid. Need to be getting gear from Toc to really get close to that icc10/rs10 requirement. EoF belt will help you as well.

Replace the pvp gear and you're good to go.
check out ah for some decent items.
Make sure to read a guide on your class and to reach certain soft caps like expertise and hit.
As a 5.2 rogue you should easily do 10k dps in icc.

rouge. combat. icc 10 n... at 5kgs you are already top dps there. unless you have pvp gear. 4.8 is Juubun desu already (enough)

It's not possible to get any source of gear without ICC. Even rep farms reject me even though I have proven my dps is above average.
I am definitely not spending 6000 gold for tier10 gear because there is no worth in it when I already have a list of the armor that will replace it anyways.

Also the person who just mentioned I could do easily do 10k dps iCC is probably right since I have screenshots on every dungeon I performed in. but mostly in between 7000 to 9000(ST). I know my rotation, I know what I need to do to perform better. But It wont be enough until I have more armor pen, and I cant stack enough until tier10.

I could mention that my guild often does raiding content however the only way to do that is by becoming a G1 or G2 raider which is out of my league. And all the content they do is ICC 25hc and LOD 25hc. To actively become a raider of my guild you need to convince the GM's that you can raid, something that I failed to do with unfortunately. Even though one particularly rogue who was 300 gs more than me, praised me for overperforming on him when he had way better gear than I, even he asked his buddy if they could invite me to ICC 10 man normal upcoming Sunday, no response.

I think what I will do is just farm EoF's for another 4-5 months until I've surpassed the gap. By then, its just a stroke of luck, nobody wants to invite someone that isn't properly prepared.

First two were taken after the final bosses of the dungeons I overperformed, 9.1 and 9.3 dps Single target.

Last two images were taken after two large mob fights that had 8-10 mobs.
This isn't convincing because it isn't raid content, but its the closest I've gotten to having 10k dps.

That's really all I can show, until I do raiding I cant show anyone what my raid dps looks like, its a nonexistent record.

5.2 k gs makes 5k dps in icc ? Then tell me how i make 6k dps in naxx with 3.2k gs

Your gear is enough for most of the ICC, maybe even full clear but I am talking about Icecrown, Lordaeron has more difficult content. I don't know why nobody is mentioning VOA 25? Easy raid that drops ilvl264 gloves and pants for your class. Also you can start your own raid, why would you rely on somebody else? It's extra work but nobody can question your GS and you can even reserve some items.

Just go questing for a few days. You'll get tons of gold and will be able to buy the 264 chest and boots.
This will give you some nice expertise boost and gearscore.
Note the chest is 2nd bis and the boots are 3rd or 4th bis for the spec you're playing.
And well the 264 boe legs are like your 3rd bis aswell...
That's already 3 major upgrades if you just do quests for a while.

For weapons you have to join toc 25, 245 weapons are fairly nice.
Besides this.. if you have the marrow weekly just make or join a 10m raid for it.
He drops a very nice offhand.

Kek. GS inflation is a real thing on private server and on this particularly. People just don't have the patience to do tactics properly and prefer to blast through it with high dps. I mean, if you have good dps, many tactics don't matter as much.

If you just look purely at the game progression, 5k (~il232) is more than enough for ICC10nm. To get above that, you would actually need to have ICC gear (boe or otherwise) or spend a long time (like you did) to get t10 from daily EOF. People are just asking for even more GS to make up for potentially subpar players in raids and tbh, there aren't many raid leaders who are effective in bringing out the best in those players.

Tl:dr people just ask for more gs because they can't do pug raids without gs compensation.

At friday i did icc 10N. There were 7 ppl with 4K5 GS. We did RO at bpc becouse some ppl had to go. Easy run. If ppl had tíme we would kill LK. Dont be afraid. 5K2 GS is more than enough fór icc 10

I appreciate the response everyone, I am very close 5.4k GS once I finish a few more days of EOF farming I will be at that moment. I bought one of the t10 boots on the Ah for a very good price so I am very close to reaching that goal.

Also I got some guildmates who've been noticing my progression and DPS as well so I got a few fours between some days to do ICC rep farming which was awesome because I got my ashen band. Now all I need to do is keep farming rep till its maxxed out than I should be good to go for ICC 10, hopefully ICC 25.

May I add something?

Your current gear is more than enough for both instances. You don't need to torture yourself by farming EoFs from RDF HCs for months just so you reach the inflated gs requirements most pugs want for their raids. No, you playing on Lordearon with the buffed content doesn't change that. People can still clear normal instances with less gear, assuming they don't play like brainless chickens, in which case having high gs wouldn't be impactful enough. Everything depends on executing one's rotation well, following the tactics correctly, and having proper team coordination.

I followed the posts in this thread for a while. From what I understood, you're currently in an endgame guild, which concentrates on clearing ICC and RS on HC. If you were part of a progression guild, you would have been easily invited in icc 10 with 5.2k gs. Since that isn't the case, you could try leading your own raids (I personally would never be arsed to do it, because it's a burden to be responsible for all other participants), you could ask someone from your guild to lead a quick icc 10 just for funsies, or to convince a pug RL to have you instead of someone else.

I see that you haven't done any RSs yet. Not to brag, but when I had 5.1k-5.2k gs on Lordearon, some pug RLs also didn't want my cat for their raids. In those cases, I just said "I don't care about the loot, I only want EoFs", and most of the time I was invited. The first time as a lowbie, some people got really pissed that they were going to carry me there, until I also showed that I was knowledgeable of my spec and the tactics in that instance. The funny part was that there was a guy who was really annoyed from my 5.2k gs at start, and after the battle he wanted me to teach him how to play feral (:D). The point of this story is that instances being buffed doesn't change the gear requirements all that much. My former Icecrown GM told me that a person can clear icc 10 with 4.8k gs if he knows what to do, which might be too low for Lordearon/Frostmourne, but with 5.2k gs you can surely clear most if not all bosses on icc 10, yet alone with 5.4k. So, GS is not an issue - it's just that there aren't that many people, who are capable of leading raids or want to be bothered to do it in the first place. This is why if no one from your guild is willing to lead a quick icc 10 raid, you could a) join another guild (though, your performance being noticed by your guild mates would help you join one of their progression runs in the future), b) hope that someone in /global leads a raid and try to convince them that you have all what it takes for you to contribute to the raid (assuming you know the tactics there), and/or c) you lead your own raids and take responsibility for sharing the loot, for explaining the tactics, for coordinating the team, and for replacing random quitters.

[edit] Just to prove my point, let me show you some of my achievements:

Look at the dates - you can easily start joining RS raids and expect to get loot from those.
