    In reality since most ppl suck or not tryhard like me

    Usually a brawler will do more dps followed by archer. Wars are too greedy die too much. Range classes as usual have it easier this patch.

    On the reverse war technically should be dominating sice a lot of 1 shots in tbis patch u can iframe but again most are greedy aka ignore mechanics die so w.e. maybe archer best

    A general thing with being a damage dealer is being aware of how much damage you can take to keep up your DPS without over-doing it and getting yourself killed.

    Warriors (and other melee DPS in general) are a in a fun position on this one because they pretty much get hit by all melee range attacks (there are generally a lot in dungeons). And it's pretty easy to get it wrong (even I do on occasion). But then melee classes have the advantage of positioning.

    The worst dps currently is a Hybrid Mystic.

    Gunners and Ninjas are struggling currently, though buffs are on the way.

    Slayer isn't nearly as bad as people say they are, they're at the very least mid-tier.

    Sorcs are no longer top tier, they sit about mid-tier alongside Reaper and Slayer.

    So many misconceptions rolling around the community right now.

    Only Slayers Haters or people that only like to play OP classes said awful things against that class.

    Obviously is not a class for those who don't have any skill and always cry becuase is not as easy to play as the new spacebar dps.
  • I don't have a lot of experience, but I have been using the guides on essentialmana to improve my rotations. So far my favorites, and fastest clears of IoD, are Valk>Berserker>Brawler>Ninja I also have a Gunner Reaper and Warrior. I am really liking the Warrior and he is super fast, when I manage to not screw it up cause holy crap is that hard to manage, between the need to dodge and desire to build edge... it gets tough but his damage is up there on par with my Brawler and Berserker, should note here that Brawler is the only one using Misery +12 weapon and chest while all others are in Guile +12... wait no, Warrior is still Guile +8.... so yeah he is definitely up there with Berserker (only issue with my zerker is lacking crit rolls so sometimes it's super fast others it's a bit slow). Also I use slaying on every character for IoD.So if I take a moment to think about it, my list would be as follows (note i don't have sorc, archer, slayer, or lancer)

    Valkyrie, Warrior, Berserker, Ninja, Brawler, Reaper, Gunner. And I put Reaper+Gunner last in my list mainly because I've spent the least time using them or studying the moves, so my opinion could change with practice. Another thing to note is most of them aren't very far from each other, it's so close for them that I think skill and ability to smoothly lay out the combos is a huge factor. Though some require no skill at all, like Brawler feels like I can get the same dps no matter how I lay down those skills so long as I mash em out when off cooldown, and Zerker is really just 3-4 skills with only 1 of them even being damage, and then Valkyrie has the absolute simplest system to it (twirl attack dodge stun repeat), but a Warrior... this is the one true class you can boast skill as a pve dps player, it is not easy firing off all those skills in a proper order while also maintaining a defense and paying attention to what a bam is doing.
  • Just pick a class that is comfortable to you to dps. For example i like archers, and i feel really uncomfortable doing dps with any other class. Also always use consumables to increase your dps, that will make you different from the other crappy dps.
