Highest DPS character?
Tuon
Sorry if this topic has been done before here. I tried searching & didn't find anything.
Question is, what char can output the highest dmg over ~10 seconds? I've seen IW & i guess the mark warrior but none of them come close to the DA necro. Is there anything better?

If you're gonna compare DPS you should do it on equal footing.

Also, no major/superior runes allowed!

Also some of those assumptions I dont' really agree with. Like target won't be moving - does that ever happen? Also for this post i wouldn't really worry about AL - just listing dmg output (and the qualifiers, of course) should be sufficient imo

Then everyone's gonna use all Superior runes to get higher DPS... Instead of making the comparison for things without drawbacks.

For burst DPS, elementalist is a clear winner. For constant DPS ranger and warrior do the trick.
If you're attacking a monk with a warrior/ranger, you're doing roughly a constant amount of DPS. The monk can then adjust his healing accordingly because of the predictable amount of damage you're doing to them, for example, every 10 seconds or so he stops healing his teammates and throws a healing breeze on himself. That way he's still doing his healing on others, but also keeps himself alive.
On the other hand, elementalists do completely unpredictable amounts of damage, one of the things ele's are good at is chopping off over 25% of your life in a blink of an eye. When the damage is extremely high and not constant the monk that is going to have to spend alot more time healing themselves to prepare for the next batch of damage from the ele.

ele? Maybe if you're standing still. What skills, btw? Also do you have a rough number on dps over 7-10 seconds? |
Bah, I meant burst damage, not DPS. Anyway, lightning surge follwed by lightning orb does a good 160 damage in one instant
Dovi the Monk
well for 11 secs i can get health degen 10(which is good), meaning a good 20 health a sec for 11 secs, im sure u meant more as in weapons maybe.
i mean u could make a necro/warrior - use life siphon and life transfer for -10 health degen, plus a good sword and u hve pretty good dps.

From the limited experience I may have, I'd say the Assassin is the fastest at single-target DPS... while the Elementalist would have the highest area-of-effect DPS.
