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.
