what class is the strongest

what class can beat others up the best? idk what class i should mayk!

make*

there is no best class. Every class has it's pros and cons.

Warrior is strongest (hello strength primary!)

But yeah there is no best. They are all balanced so pick something you have fun with.

Warriors do the most physical damage.

Elementalists do the most elemental damage.

Not true, a dervish can do much more physical damage then a warrior.

Fine. Dervish do the most physical damage. :P

if you are looking at the maximums then elementalist wins.

most raw AoE damage = ele
most raw single target damage = ele
most armor = ele

most raw AoE damage = ele
most raw single target damage = warrior or assassin
most armor = warrior

I made a ranger cuz my pet can beat ppl up!

most raw AoE damage = ele
most raw single target damage = warrior
most armor = warrior

There is no best class. If you're looking at a pure 1v1 situation Mesmers and Assassins are significantly stronger than other classes, but 1v1 is not what matters. 8v8 is what matters. And in 8v8 all classes have their own strengths and weaknesses.

I see Frazzy is bored again.

n00b is the most powerful class, because they can do damage to hundreds of people at once.

Quote for truth

well sins kill via contitions not damage, so it is ele, and with earsh attribute ele does have the highest armour.

Primary Professions:
Warrior: Best physical dmg armour (good melee damage)
Ranger: Best Elemental Dmg Armour (good ranged damage)
Monk: Weak armour; awesome heals
Mesmer: Weak armour; awesome caster (inflicts conditions and hexes)
Necro: similar to mesmer but with minions that can act as body blockers/extra fighters
elementalist: Best elemental damage, can do most damage to most enemies at the same time. weak-mid armour str.

Assassin: Best armour against conditions, good spike damage vs singer characters, good defensive tactics
Ritualist: can be strong, depends on build

Dervish: self-heals, armour comparable to rangers, multiple strike regular attack comparable to warrior
Paragon: not sure...

Even though assassin armour shortens conditions... degen owns them, not enough self healing skills and the ones that they do have are easly counterable... [Shadow Refuge] All u have to do is run from them after 2 seconds then when it wears off attack them again... then they dont get the bonus

Warriors deal more damage than elementalists. That's a fact. It's been discussed a lot of times before. There's an 80 page thread about it in the Gladiator's Arena entitled 'Why Nuking Sucks'. Very interesting read. Conditions or not, warriors out-dps elemetalists.
Armor from enchantments doesn't count. One interrupt or shatter pwns them all. I don't see that happening with Warrior armor.

yes warriors deal more damage to a single target than a NUKER. but not all eles are nukers. and air spiker will deal much more damage than a warrior. also earth eles have way higher armor than warriors. go read some skill descriptions people.

I never stated otherwise..it was listed as most "raw" damage, dps involves damage over time as opposed to a single shot damage, 119 from a single spell is more than +40 from say an axe skill.

Warriors are the strongest...my diminutive female warrior can wield a huge single-handed sword and tall shield that together probably weigh more than she does.

Oh, but my tiny monk can too.....oh well.

Warrior or ranger is probably the easiest, mesmer or assassin the hardest (PvE wise). The others fit in between. You can make a decent warrior with almost any skill bar assuming you act within your team and not on your own. An assassin or mesmer needs a good build, understanding of the game/priority of targets, and working within your team well.

Maximum in nearly everything will be an Ele - but they are conditional (you will note that the above "ele's aren't the highest" discount where the conditions are true while not discounting their own conditions). For most times, that isn't good at all, just that they *can* - while they can be the highest in nearly everything the conditions are usually hard to come by and do not last long or are easy to remove (and even the AI does so). They need to stay as an Ele, not trying to be something else.
