I mean really the ones i just listed or not needed in any fashion on raids, this game seems to take more of a crap turn every expansion.

I agree with all the classes mentioned except rangers, SOE did acknowledge the problem with rangers regarding arrow mechanics and are planning on fixing that issue. The other classes they have basically said are working as intended. When the arrow mechanics are fixed rangers should be parsing as well if not better then any other class. Or they just might give rangers an arrow summoning bow as a quick fix until it is fixed. Necros are another class that may or may not need some help as well with no acknowledgement of problems.

The sad part is when you have to rely upon an epic to "fix' your class you pretty much lost all hope on your class. (a T9 arrow summoning epic bow for rangers would although help them considerably)

Not boasting or anything like that, but as a guard my dps is right around the same as a zerker. I hit 4900+ on single targets with def, temp, dirge, swash and warden with the raid dps being between 83-91k. What everyone doesn't know is, a way a guard makes up for dps compared to a zerker, is that the guard has a few extra high damage ca's that the zerker does not have. I know the guard CA Mar(53 sec reuse) that with the int line maxed, and using execution beforehand, will crit for 6500+, as well as lay waste which will crit for sometimes 3k(26 sec reuse), Decimate(53 sec reuse) 3K+. There is another which I can't think of, but with the difference in damage of the guard ca's and zerker ca's it's very easy to make up the damage that Turmoil does. Believe me, when I betrayed I was worried about the dps I was going to lose, but it's not really any different. Plus, on a side note, the guard EOF aa line, you can increase the damage of most of your ca's which w/o that, they would be just the same as a zerker, but in the end after those aa's spent, puts them ahead.

Sangre · 01-30-2008, 01:20 PM

lol, yea... kor'sha ftw... it's not like that for every zone and every encounter due to the make up of them, but yes it does get that high...

Fonil · 01-30-2008, 01:21 PM

Damn thats really impressive im topping out at about 3300-3400 however I have no where near the gear you do.

Sangre · 01-30-2008, 01:22 PM

I know my personal dps will go up once I get either the epic or the WDB, but for now I'm stuck with the Ekron Blade...

Fonil · 01-30-2008, 01:23 PM

WDB?

Sorry off topic Back to zerkers sucking and no real reason to stick around.
