I am looking forward to doing Teron Gorefiend again, tonight. He's a very very good DPS test for Disrupta, even if he nukes my 2nd set of treants.

I was doing some theorycraft/math/dps-calculating like a good bored little geek :P. And I've come up with some interesting numbers.

If you look at my Total dps, in the parses, and you look at my spell's damage and my treants damage, you'll notice that the treants are "physical" damage, and not actually spell damage. I was trying to figure out what damage Disrupta would of done if his treants would survive the full 30 second duration, and he had a shadow priest keeping up Misery. (5% extra spell damage done.)

Disrupta had done a total of:

Starfire: 301,154 75% 1209.5~ of total DPS

Moonfire 50,320 13% 202~ of total DPS

Insect Swarm 35,814 9% 144~ of total DPS

Treants 14,293 4% 57.5~ total DPS

Total Damage 401,581 Total DPS 1639

Now if we add up the "non" physical damage, and multiply it by 1.05, to simulate the shadow priest Misery debuff, we change these "total" numbers to.

 Total Damage 420945 Total DPS 1690.5~

Thats about a 51 DPS increase, from having that one buff that I didn't have, not to mention if he was in my group and I was able to pop Destruction potions instead of Super Mana potions.

Now, Teron Gorefiend is an asshole that likes to kill my Treants, but, assuming the "Stars Alligned" and my Treants were able to survive their full duration each time, they could do upwards of 26k damage.

This is our most recent Brutallus kill, 6 minutes, 2 chances to summon treants. Unlike Teron, my Treants only die - if someone fails. They did 26,044 Damage, thats the "baseline" possible damage I'll use  for this little "what if" theorycraft I'm putting together.

Instead of 14293 damage, which is 57.5~ DPS, the treants survive and do 26044 damage, which is 104.5~ DPS.

So the new totals:

Total Damage  432696 Total DPS 1738~

That is a very interesting number to me, 1738 DPS from a moonkin still not quite sporting anywhere near optimal gear for his raids progression. The problem though is I'll never beable to test all of this out, fully, we'll never have the same group set up LF1M had PLUS a shadow priest. We hardly ever bring HBK as a ret pally, and we don't really have any elemental shammies.

That and my Treants will probably never reach their full potential on that boss. But nonetheless, it's nice figuring out what is "possible" vs what is "real". If we did have the shadow priest in that particular raid, and my treants DID survive full duration, the boss would of died sooner, increasing the raid wide dps substantially, the spriests debuff would do the same for every caster. And thus raid wide dps would go up substantially.
