magus is simply horrible in t2. it start showing his dmg in t3 where u can spec BoC, PotW and IFoC. then he can put some burst and be deadly especially when assisting other players (timing BoC, SVF, IFoC with sorc WoP is devastating even when target is focus healed)

SHs and SWs are still solid dps in all tiers

engi highets killing potential is in t2 where people lack armor, in t3 only on cloth classes with snipe and UF, they seem to have problem with stacking WS leading to low ranged power and crit usually that hurst the class

AM/sham - I have always respecced to heal in the middle of t3 usually so no idea

RP/zeal - lol for solo. in grp horrible. though for bomb wb zealot seems to be good if played right thanks to nice aoe skills, aoe resist + armor debuff, aoe morale silence and especially for aoe heal debuff

supported BW and sorc > all rdps from t1 to t4

^ agree with everything. The ones calling magi "dps" in t2 are just being silly and are simply looking at scenario numbers. 100k dot damage that was healed through easily with one group heal is not classified as "dps". Sorc/bw are your choices. Magi get a lot better in t4 + rr.

Bright wizard or engi, hands down

No other classes even come close

In the current meta

Engineer>SW/SH>Sorc>BW

Level 21 and talisman slots will shake it up a lot, expect SW and BW to pull ahead of everyone thanks to their incoming healdebuffs, and talismans slots should increase the average amount of armor while lowering the amount of resists out there since gear w/ talisman slots usually have no resists on them.

Until the devs add them I don’t think you should count on tallis because az has been sayin he dosnt want to add/plan to add them yet and nagol is saying that he has crafting skills working so I don’t know what to speculate

Word used to be that they were only going to do the ap potion and health potion and that was it

Not sure how main stat talis are not going to come in I can see how armor talis would not be

agree with most except rp/zeal ran a 6 man all 4 zeals chosen and mara wasn't hard to kill stuff and was hard to lock down a zeal did the same on order with rps kotbs and engi this was b4 harb changed from a debuff to a stat change which imo nerfed dps on a solo zeal or rp

main stat talismans are already working (I have 2 equipped on Harnag), you know this right? However seems hard to get any more than +2 or +3, so not really meaningful yet.
