Personally, I'm happy to take a retardin with me in raids, but you'll have a difficult time finding groups for heroics and probably pug 10-mans as well, since the general perception of retadins is so negative. That said, they're capable of outputting serious dps for sure. I was able to convince some friends to take
my retardin
into Hyjal the other day, and despite the fact that he's still wearing some blues, I was able to reach 1200 dps on a couple bosses. If you know what you're doing (and have windfury >.>) there's no reason you can't hold your own in any raid in WoW.
Edit: And also, definitely get the s1 gear. It's not bad at all for PvE, and unless you can get lucky with drops in Kara, you won't get a better weapon for awhile.

Frankly, as long as you know what you're doing you'll be more valuable in any instance than a typical semi- or completely retarded dps of any other class. You might not set any dps records, but there's no reason you can't keep up OK with everyone else, and provide some pretty decent buffs besides.

whenever people say ret sucks i cry a little inside, sure it cant dps like a lock or a mage or a rogue but *shock horror* its not a pure dps spec, its a support dps spec like a shadow priest.
look at many BT guilds shadow priests very rarely hit high places on dps meters, and when they do, its due to the fight being very favorable to them, but what they do bring is insane mana regen for their group 10% more raid shadow damage and 5% raid spell damage, and some healing to their group.
ret pallys bring the 3% raid crit and an extra 2% damage to their group on everything, and the ability to keep up judgements from the pally healers, thats quite a large amount of extra utility that is only equaled by a shadow priests utility and a shamans utility and tbh, give me a utility dpser over a rogue or a mage. so if they wont let you go as ret tell them where to shove their narrow minded heads :P

WotLK will be a brighter future for Ret Palas, theyre being buffed so they have can become a proper DPS class.
