SCH DPS > SMN DPS?

[KaisaaVonFaust]

A friend of mine who is a SCH is arguing that his DPS is far superior than a SMN dps. I don't understand why that would be true. A parser is nothing to him so does anyone have any hard proof of either side?

[LostCody]

what?
same base class,same class abilities.
even if a sch put points and geared like if he was a smn the smn would do more damage cause the sch's pet is for healing and the smn pet is obviously for damage.
don't count the pets and there literally identical if stats were set the same,cause you know....there the same class.

side note:if this is true,please do post your friends argument.would love too see it.

He said what you are saying is invalid cause you didn't count in cleric stance

Tell him he's a nonsensical idiot.

lol thats what we are trying to prove.. trying to show he is in denial

[rocheetbombe]

Cleric Stance is only going to give him about the same amount of intelligence as a Summoner if we were to say they had the same grade of gear. That with everything LostCody already mentioned and the difference is obvious. Not to mention Summoner also gets Spur, Tri-Disaster, and Fester..

im using parse right now.. but its "completely inaccurate" so.

well the simulation for dots is there, there are a few things that the parser doesn't track though, shadowflare, contagion and multidots/bane.

SCHs doesn't have contagion, he shouldnt multi dot when parsing single target, so the only thing he should be worried about is tracking shadowflare, which is easy to add since it does not crit.

guys thank you! Glim thank you also ^^

I've done whitemage scholar bard pally on ak a few times, scholar is obviously dpsing and we still manage to kill demon wall without killing the bees. I've also tried with a summoner friend instead but with that summoner the bees don't even have a chance to spawn
