r/m and w/m are kinda OP ATM...r/wdn is also decent DPS...

I just find it funny that this question about OP dps classes is in the scout section, might as well ask in the Druid part of the forums

Rogue will max out the dps of any other class. So as long as you are a rogue you will have the most. Mage is the next highest. R/M is about the most dps at this time . Scout was nerfed to worthless so avoid it at all costs in any combo.

There isn't really OP class ATM. Simplest to gear would be W/M, but no longer bes DPS (IMO - but also not far behind). Still it can do decent DPS without great EQ.

As for others R/WD/M, WD/S, W/WD, CH/R would be my choices.
I would personally recommend R/WD/M combo, as R/WD is currently OP solo class with good DPS and great SW survivability, /M means only 70 lvl of subclass good semi-ranged DPS with good melee DPS. Currently I have no comparison between R/WD and R/M, so I can not tell which would be better for bosses.
Other good option would be CH/R, as with good stats it would be tank and DPS in one gear. Most patt of all classes.
WD/S can do some "extraordinary" things with Chirion and usually I manage to do same DPS as everyone else without adding Chirion DPS, besides it's probably most sustainable DPS combo (maybe besides W/M) and adding /W would mean you can go W/WD - very good DPS and second in patt after CH/R and WD/W and tank something, but lower instances of few equipment parts to do.

R/M is the highest dps in the game right now, but probably one of the most expensive to gear as well since everyone and their mother is a rogue or uses leather.

W/M is still pretty good and cheap to gear and do well.

r/m isnt the highest...... Have you seen a wd/w or wd/s lately that can actually play their class? They are fking OP as hell. I run as r/m with about 3 others (not on AU) and our TANK uses full fps gear on beth/belathis bosses and litterally wipes the floor with us....and the wd/s does even more. They are only burn dps though, after that they fall off and place r/m back on top.

Don't really know what instances you have experience from, but WD/S isn't burn DPS on any instance.... The longer fight the better, as after about 30s with proper buffed cent you should have constant 25% attack speed buff on. I do not mention centaur DPS, as beast can do about 2M DPS for first 30s and about 1,5M after, of course buffing that high would require some time, but it's possible and here add master DPS, that probably would be higher during burn phase (maybe besides belatis) and ok much lower after, but as everyone else (and you have 25% speed buff and wait only 60s for next burn and faster is only warrior`s berserk). Personally I usually have aggro issues on 2-nd belatis boss with 2x recon VII.

As for WD/W only burn and probably only tanking boss, so by adjusting stats to have more HP or it would be much weaker than WD/S (that's from my experience).

M/W on belatis doesn't exist. TOP DPSes will do at minimum 3x more DMG, probably more like 5-6x. The only bosses where you could use mage for his AoEs would be 3-rd and 4-th, but then he will die in seconds, so using too much AoEs is not an option. Simply time with lower mDef has finally over, showing weakness of mage and that W/M is no longer OP.


And do not get me wrong, all classes I mentioned before are really close and some have other adv over others than just DPS.

I should have made it clear, all 3were burn phase. Wd/s is prob best dps or similar to wd/w but need to know something abt wd/s to have it at max power

maybe your r/m are doing it wrong (maybe our wd/w/s are doing it wrong evenwith *max power*) but i havent seen anything come close to the r/ms i normally run with

I sincerely wish you could have run with Shin or Saela from, Bteam. They would then force you to squeeze every bit of pa you can get to beat them. I saw plenty of dps videos on different bosses from many ppl, nothing dps wise comes close to what Saela and Shin can do. And Shin also tanks....Before r/m change, I could rarely beat Shin dps for example. With new change I could outdps him often, but again he was tanking.

I doubt there is much wrong with r/m, I suspect your wds don't do rotation as well as Shin or Saela do. Shin in particular is really good about it.
