PVE meta damage
Ask in the dungeon forum, it’s your best bet.
Condi engi is the highest sustained dps in longer fights.
anyone crunch numbers for highest-lowest dps since the spec patch? obv ele and thief are still top two, but im curious where engi mesmer and such fall now
IIRC
Ele is 17.5 -27.5 depending on the hitbox of the enemy (large bosses you get more meteor/ice bow hits)
Engi is ilke 16.5-17k power build, ~21k as a theoretical max on condi if you’re insane and can pull it off.
Guard is like 12k-14k for power build depending on what you bring for support.
That’s all I feel confident saying off the top of my head from seeing all the numbers crunched.
These all being numbers for ~30s+ fights. Condi engi for example is lower dps than power until 14s in where it finally pulls ahead. And obviously Ele is still king of burst though Engi ain’t bad either.
I’ve pulled more burst out of my engi than my thief or mesmer… not sure if thats what we are going for but its been done ^.^
