DPS Potential of All Classes in Savage Alex

[Ashkendor]

Oh boy, back to reddit with you. If you're not parsing 2k on monk/nin which we see people doing in PUGS now, then its either gear or player skill. The monk in my group pushed 1400 during multiple phases of the fight BEFORE 200 ilvl weapons with 180/190 gear.

2k on monk/ninja in pugs... do you mean spike damage or overall DPS? Cause um. No?

I mean, there are no 2k single target parses in that whole googledoc you listed. There aren't even 2k parses with encounters with two targets like a1s. So... the question is, is the googledoc you are listing extremely out of date (and if so why are you linking it), or is it up to date?

He's probably talking about A2S again. Of course anyone with any AoE attacks is going to have vastly bloated numbers in a 10 minute long glorified trash pull. In his OP he mentioned DPS classes doing 2500 DPS, but that doesn't happen in any other floor of Savage.

The funny part is that he then said that we should discount warrior DPS in that same floor. xD

The top 160+ spots are dominated by SMN with a couple of BLM in there, but once you get down into the 2200 range there are indeed a couple of monks sitting there. I honestly think there's so few since people have melee drive the walker.
