Highest DPS class?

[bave]

Can someone tell me which class has the highest burst, then the hight overall dps? thank you

[Kuroneko80]

I dunno, but sorcerer has high burst, but I'm not sure if it's the highest.

[skill issue]

Gunner if you want high dps for boss fights you can easy solo with it

[GTX]

So far I found Gunner is, socerer got decent AOE burst

[bave]

what about zerker

[Autrix]

zerker is the lowest dps atm. Brawler > Reaper > Gunner > Warrior/Archer > Sorcerer > Slayer/Zerk

Next class patch Slayer is in front of brawler. Next two patches Brawler will be behind Sorc.

No doubt the brawler hits like a freight train on steroids

[anabelrose7]

It seems sorcerer has great burst dps and gunner has the best dps in general.

[bave]

waiiiiit zerker is that low?

[bave]

so next patch slayer will hit hardest?

[Marquez]

Slayer gets cooldown reductions on certain skills making them a little quicker so their overall DPS output will be a higher. Berserker's have the highest one-shot hits but their very slow compared to every other class and missing a critical hit on Zerk reduces a good chunk of DPS as opposed to the faster classes that can afford a couple missed critical hits. Zerk is still good DPS if properly used, but even thats barely enough to keep up with the other classes. At the moment Brawler is top notch in DPS but that will change in Janurary when the nerf hits, afterwards Reapers and Gunners will be on the high end of overall DPS.

If you're not good enough with the class (rotations, positioning, consumables) no matter what you play, you're DPS is gonna be low.

All these DPS rankings really misrepresent each class's potential. The difference between the lowest rank of these rankings and the highest on these rankings are probably only around 10%ish, and only assuming that everyone is playing the class to max potential. Worrying about dps rankings and being on top will do literally nothing but boost your ego if you aren't actually skilled at the class.

Agree to what Null said

Skill, timing, postion, and how you setup crystals, equipment, and glyphs plays a very large part overall. Even "top-tier" dps (not counting brawler) don't mean much of anything if they're attacking at the front of a boss instead of behind, to the point where they can end up dealing only 1/3 of their potential just because they aren't positioned properly. Nevermind the part where the boss is often constantly moving and attacking, putting a limitation on how long you have during any cycle to do optimal damage.

ah ok thank you. that was the best answer possible
