Highest DPS builds

[The Winged Dragon of RaGod]

In your guys opinion what do you think is the best single target nuke build in the game.

[KG]

At least until the next patch that's probably some sort of pet Cabalist or Conjurer blowing all of its timed buffs or a refined dual wield melee Nex+Ortus cold Infiltrator or Vindicator.

The strongest that I have played is a Darkblaze Pyromancer. I can get over 200000 DPS if all the procs activate together. Also, unlike the above examples (which are getting nerfed), Demolitionist is getting buffed in the next patch.

I was always play a pure Demolitionlist and nuke them like mash potatoes.

Has this been officially announced (if so, link please) or is this just your assumption?

[Anathema]

Nex+Ortus is getting nerfed. Yes, they said so, no I can't be bothered to find a quote.

single nuke skill; Doom Bolt, Shadow Strike, Reap Spirit. my personal opinion, vitality has high damage because it easy to reduce enemy resistance to 0%. making huge damage skill is easy add some flat damage and weapon damage more than 300%, but to balance it, is hard. if you want breaking a record thing don't balance your character.

One of the highest dps builds ive seen in practice is Uroburoks drain essence build it does insane damage and is near unkillable unless it gets stun locked.

But most likely in the wider GD world its some super twinked build using GDstash generated greens some sort of NB or soldier variant

Is that sheet DPS or figured out from timing how long to kill a boss?

Did that pierce NB/Inquis get nerfed as well? That one seemed to do a ton of damage. Didn't play it myself, but hearing talk from others.

The one which does over 1 million DPS? Yeah... I own Inflator as well and it kicks ass.

Sheet DPS.

My Purifier is doing just fine, it melts bosses relativly fast, it's tank AF with a Shield and Pistol, I can even solo cupacabara or what the name of that Beast nemesis is, it's hard since i have to kite him, with a shield. YOu shoudl be asking the question; which build lets me survive and defeat Nemesis, Bosses are mostly a joke after lvl63

Noice. That is pretty good then. You burn down Nemesis bosses in about 12-14 seconds?

anything But Beast Nemesis yes.

Easily... Unless you have to hit and run, like with Kubacabra.
Anyway, the procs aren't all active all the time, but some will be, so the average value is around 140000 - 160000 in regular combat.
