February 27, 2024: Fury Overall, Fire on Bosses
Fury Warrior topped 95th-percentile overall damage in ICC’s Week 21 capture. Fire Mage topped the corresponding boss-damage chart, while Feral Druid was first in both all-percentile views. The same raid produced different leaders when the metric or percentile selection changed.
This is a historical snapshot for the week of February 27, 2024, published by Anshlun on Wowhead on March 7, 2024. The underlying charts are Warcraft Logs statistics.
Selected filters: Heroic Icecrown Citadel, 25-player, all bosses, DPS, all item levels, a one-week range, normalized-score aggregation and Phase 4 (Buff). The four source charts pair overall damage and damage to bosses with 95th-percentile and all-percentile views.
All 24 DPS Categories in One Comparison
The first results column determines the row order. Positions in the other columns belong to their own charts. Source labels such as Blood (DPS) Death Knight and Gladiator Warrior are preserved.

Three Useful Details Below the Headline
Frost Mage’s position depended on the comparison
Frost Mage was twentieth in both 95th-percentile charts. That placed it below Arms Warrior and above Balance Druid for overall damage, but above both for boss damage. Across all percentiles, Frost was twenty-first overall and twentieth for bosses, with Balance twentieth and twenty-first respectively.
The table makes those distinctions visible without suggesting that the distance between two rows equals an exact percentage damage gap.
Enhancement and Assassination reversed their order
Enhancement Shaman was fourteenth overall and fifteenth for bosses at the 95th percentile. Assassination Rogue was fifteenth overall and fourteenth for bosses. In the broader charts, Enhancement occupied eleventh overall and twelfth for bosses, while Assassination occupied thirteenth and eleventh.
A comparison between those two categories therefore needs both the target metric and the percentile selection. Quoting only one of the four positions leaves out part of the result.
The Death Knight results used a DPS role filter
Unholy was tenth overall and ninth for bosses at the 95th percentile, with eighth place in both all-percentile charts. Blood (DPS) was eleventh and twelfth at the 95th percentile, compared with fifteenth in both broader views. Frost Death Knight was thirteenth in both 95th-percentile charts and fourteenth in both broader charts.
Reading This Week Alongside the Next Capture
The March 5, 2024 Week 22 results offer the next dated comparison. Beast Mastery Hunter moved from twenty-second to nineteenth in the 95th-percentile overall ordering, while remaining twenty-second in both weeks’ all-percentile overall charts.
That contrast describes a change in chart positions. It does not by itself show that every Beast Mastery player gained damage, or establish a particular balance change as the cause. Both captures display Phase 4 (Buff), without a separate numeric buff value in the visible controls.
For a character review, choose the relevant encounter and target metric, then inspect a suitable individual report for survival, target uptime and action choices. These aggregate charts use normalized scores; their ordering cannot replace that encounter-level evidence.
Other original captures: 95th-percentile overall, 95th-percentile boss damage and all-percentile overall distribution.
