Highly depends on what group each person gets.

would assume assassin but is very raid/grp dependant as Pinski said. In my raid parses, it is me(necro) and the ranger usually way out in front (like 1K in front or more) trailed by a properly buffed wizard and 2 assassins. Brigand also in the top tier grp. Swashy in the MT group usually wasnt putting up impressive numbers.

That seems out of step with many end game guilds here where wizards, illusionists, locks, swashies and such are always parsing very well.

Sounds like your swash is slacking.

sounds like your wizard and assassins are slacking too. Especially if they're "properly buffed".

Actually its fairly close when I dont LB, the wizard with tandem+TC+troub is right up there with myself w/tandem+troub and ranger w/IA+dirge. Assassin and brigand also occasionally take no1 spot on single target mobs, but less common than those 3.

My point: people have predetermined ideas of dps rankings because class X sucks in your respective guild.

Rangers still own- if your ranger is good
