What is your stance on epic gemming?

So, what is it? Optional or necessary? I'm speaking strictly heroic DS, of course.

I'm especially curious to hear the opinion from the 'hardcore' raiders because I intend on getting into the heroic encounters soon.

EDIT: I've decided to just gem all BiS pieces as I receive them, however, you're still welcome to contribute to the discussion. Please try to keep the conflict to a minimum though.

Whether epic gems are optional or necessary will depend greatly on the raider and the raid. A raid struggling during progression pushes may require everyone to maximize everything they can while another raid will relax and simply take longer to overcome those challenges. There are lots of things to consider when deciding on what to do with your gear so I suggest simply taking it step by step.
