You're zw will be much closer to 1.7k. All this is assuming zero healing.
Unless you are a dark elf templar : ) 2 Divine Recovery FTW. Well a mini divine recovery anyways.

I'm sorry that all the shaman you've raided with can't do DPS, but a Shaman does as much DPS as a Templar if they don't suck.

Only have 1 shaman till 2 weeks ago. But I don't think I classify my guild as being good relatively. Just a 4 days Casual.

But IIRC I never see Thuger doing more than 500 ZW at Defiance. And the defiler there do suck balls.

Can anyone explain to me why in EQ1 nobody expected Clerics to put out DPS, whereas in EQ2 you're almost expected to?

Cause in most raids, it is retardedly easy to heal and you can do it by pressing 3 buttons. So you just switch to DPS gear and make the shit die faster.

I see thuger hitting 2-3k all the time.

but personally since we kill avatars like every other day and byzola and trak et all I've just given up respeccing out of str line at all. So I'm str/agi/int and without stamina crits or smite wrath (I chose compliances for the aforementioned fights for a good reason). My motivation to dps has plummeted as a result but I would expect an average raiding templar who is stamina/smite wrath specced could achieve 2.5k zonewide with minimal effort

2-3k zone wide, or 2-3k certain fight?

The mystic mythical clickie effect can out DPS any Templar by itself, when it's up.

Mystics in general can DPS right with a Templar. I have yet to see a Defiler do the same.
