These are not magic numbers, they will not let you be auto awesome, these are just some figures i suggest you have to stop me rage kicking you out of groups for being behind a ret pally in DPS.

Okay, I dont accept Maths with this I just want a simple answer

Simple really, in most trash pulls past kara (and in kara) most mobs will attack you passivily using melee strikes (frontal cone) charging and magic, so dodge rate will allow you to survive more then 1 hit assuming you ever pull aggro from the tank, tank dies or tank doesn't like you.
This is pretty much the base idea that dead rogues dont dps.

As your your comment on saying we aren't going to be main tanking Illidan or Archimonde, Many rogues have tanked bosses in BT using dodge as the threat holder, so as such, we'll be trying this method after a while.
So in a simple answer, your dodge rate is required as a survival tactic until you gain enough hp to make it worth while to discard it, however, i dont not expect you to have the dodge rate at the sacrafice of DPS, however you can expect me to laugh at you when you die from a stray mob one hitting you with melee and you not dodging.

Nah I wont die when we do a mob in BT and MH because of 2 Reasons:
the Tank will have so much threat on them (They better )
and I will have popped all my cooldowns including Evasion so they take a swing at me and they will miss.
