Thank you for the help sotsotzaii. I've found there are terribly harsh diminishing returns with crit starting around 46/47%. I feel stacking power is the best route.
I'm trying to win the match, not stack points. My team mates can cap while I keep everyone busy at mid or elsewhere or pick off valuable targets. EDIT: 2 of those games were solo que. In games like that I tend to just keep people dead and pray my team is smart enough to stand on towers. Usually they aren't, but I digress.
I believe the word you're looking for is skill. Maybe that particular person just... knows what they're doing? http://puu.sh/2MILF http://puu.sh/2OfiG http://puu.sh/2NTJR http://puu.sh/2NTkY In that last picture, I had my friend Mumay que up with me. When you have pro heals it's pretty hard to die when it's not lvl 60 pvp.
Most of your complaints are learn2play issues. You will be doing more overall dps than a rogue in the form of AoE's at cap. That's assuming you know how to play, but clearly you need to work on it. You do less dps than a cleric because you don't have a solid rotation down, which is understandable since you probably aren't…
Thank you both for the quick replies. I'm just stumped as to why 34 pure weapon damage contributes far less to the damage stat than 54 power. That would be that Power would be almost 1:1 with damage which seems far off....
