Which destro dps class do you recommend?

[zimeks97]

Choppa is worst choice for new player because you need personal healer and personal tank to stay alive. Better play marauder for warbands and witch elf for solo.

I'm gonna try it out someday. Marauder is not good for solo?

Chosen is very good for solo, Mara is very good for solo. See more here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1UvUaeHESQ

Witch elf,Squig herder, Dps dok/wp, Dps shaman or any tank 2h are all great choices for solo

Okay, playing tier 4 RVR proves me more and more that I might need to change class to play more solo.

Remember, whatever you pick there always will be classes that just win the rock-paper-scissor-spock-lizard game.

Better just pick 1 which mechanics you like.

I get that, I just don't really want to try every class, at least not now ;D

WE- dmg nerfed hard compared to before abilities patch.
Dps dok/wp- gl vs kiter.

I agree and i think WE should get Original FM = 15% Crit tactic at 5 bloodlust back. Critting version of Witchbrew. And Good RoR change 50% AA dmg to Sac Stab with 5bloodlust back so we have more choice to spec. Also Bleeding Edge nerf from 50% to 25% is too much. Make it 35% And for 4s instead of 3. Need return to Aor dmg calculations because atm Pierce Armor has same dmg as slice??? "Special" Abilities had double offensive stat contri vs target has double toughness contribution(making original toughness strong enough on its own right) and thats why Stacking both Crit + Melee/Magic/Ranged Power was the way. Amounts you got in aor were maybe a bit too much, so no permanent 180 melee power or 15% Everything Crit. 75% AA haste or nope for 3200 Absorbs etc : D

And remove the off gcd Charge from We/Wh. Cant have everything and need counters + Luck like Crit dmg variation 35-55% Dmg increase without modifiers. Nothing in War has 20% variation based on luck except crit and crit works the same for all + Iniative had certain amount that if you dropped under it everything critted against you.

Having access to 2x Crit dmg procs(stacked if not same amount increases) 12-18% Crit dmg/9 Crit +10/20%Crit Dmg Sovereign 7pc offensive universal set bonuses, like Dps wp/dok had the same as Med armour Melee Dps got bonuses. Dps am/Sh got same as Magic Ranged dps set bonuses. This is much better way to use "Copy Paste Bonuses" than currently imo.

Example how to very easily make good changes in RoR; Remove 2h 10% Parry avoidance from all except 2h Warrior priest, like original. Add old Overlord/Imperator bonuses back. Replace all 15% Crit dmg with Boost V. Replace strikethru bonuses as well from highlvl sets. Add like 3% Strikethru to some set piece but this is not bonus worthy.

Make 4pc Sove Melee dps bonus 5% Crit(including Dps wp/dok but with some differences sometimes.) 5pc 700 armour debuff for Wp/Dok, 5% Armour pene for rest. 6pc bonus 130 melee power on hit proc. 7pc Boost VII 10% Crit/20% Critical dmg Proc.

Magic Ranged Dps+Dps shaman/Am Set bonuses Int/Wounds/. 4pc 10% chance on being hit to reduce cast times by 05s. 5pc - Any Ability: 10% chance to reduce the cost of the next ability used within 10 seconds to 0 Action Points. 6pc 130 Magic ranged dmg. 7pc Boost VII 10/20 Crit/Crit dmg increase proc.

Offensive Tank set example; 4pc On Hit:10% Chance to increase strikethru by 8%. 5pc On Hit:10% to Taunt Target. 6pc- Any Ability: 10% chance to reduce the cost of the next ability used within 10 seconds to 0 Action Points. 7pc On Hit: 10% chance to reduce the next two heals on the target within 10 seconds by 516. Works on Potions/MeleeHeal/Lifetaps/Morales/Everything.

Lastly Engi/Magus/Dps Zealot/Dps Rp would share set bonus with some exception with engi. 4pc Any Ability: 10% chance to reduce the cost of the next ability used within 10 seconds to 0 Action Points. 5pc Quickening Proc. 6pc Bewildering - On hit: 10% chance to increase cast times by 05s for 6 seconds,Works on melee and Ranged attacks. 7pc Boost VII 10/20 Crit/Crit dmg increase proc.

Dps wp/dok have 10s Snare immunity + Quick escape proc + Flee and ap pot so there is plenty you can try, but yes against good kiter espesially current iteration of dps wp/dok have no chance. Judgement /fok should give 15resourses again, i mean they are only "throw axe skills" in the game that are spirit dmg and can hird quite hard, probably so they have that chance against kiters. Ranged detaunt and cleanse exists as well + pathetic hot but hey anything in your kit that can help and is not waste of gcd.

Soulfire/fell sacrifice should also give resourses back, 2s cooldown 1s cast. Dok healdebuff has been destroyed completely, it was aoe 50% hd on crit tactic before and now you need to buy 5pts skill and 9pts tactic to have that Sanquinary extension's DOT part be the heal debuff so you need debuff on target before even having the HD : D And vs Wp had 20s cd 10s 25% hd skill now its 10s cd and 10s duration 50% hd + they have 25% hd wpn as well.

Btw im not complaining about Wp having those things but DOk SE should just be the HD without tactic, its even in same placement as Wp Hd so it makes perfect sense. Then Add quilty soul type 3x stacking dot tactic that heals for dmg dealt. Add heal to Wp guilty soul back as well.

[Amakusa]

DPS Shaman, Squig Herder and Magus are very good for solo roaming.

[toffikx]

If you look for something versatile, i would recommend marauder.
Is viable in 2-6 man roaming/scenario groups, works well in warbands, and is even viable as solo.

[Easysteps2]

Sinisterror had the best advice in his first post. There are lots of viable solo classes in this game.

I suggest that you play a character concept that you like. And just persevere.

RVR at rank 16 is tough. Try to do some scenarios sometimes, at least you will be on an equal playing field with everyone else. Then you'll be able to tell if Choppa is for you. But honestly, all classes change by the time you get to rank 40, because you get more abilities and you'll learn how to use the abilities that you have better.

Choppa is a great class, but like others have said, you need a tank and healer, especially at low ranks or against high RR opponents. Every class gets run over if trying to solo against 3+ characters, which is really common btw when soloing. Just FYI. Solo is not for the faint of heart, be prepared to die (and run)... a lot.
