I was curious how everyone test how much DPS they are pulling out on consoles. Since we don't have any adds ons that give is a layout. I've been working on my Stam blade, running Vicoious ophidian and viper. I'm getting a constant 2k on my blood craze and gritting up to 6k on the final hit. I mean is that good could I be doing a lot better. Anyone with info on testing DPS son consiles, plz help.

    Try test running pug group for vet fungal 2 second boss, vet Coa 2 all bosses, if you can get through those with your dps build, you are good. If your group struggles to get through, then you'll know your dps sucks.

    All those bosses are timed, so you need to have certain dps output or you can never get pass the boss.
    It is a dps test for sure, not healer or tank test, pure dps output test.

    Slimecraw in Way rest 1 has 1.8m health so anything under a minute is good.

    ...you're serious?

    1,800,000 / 60 = 30,000. So it's an estimation that to do it in 1 minute is roughly 30k DPS.

    Slimecraw in Way rest 1 has 1.8m health so anything under a minute is good.

    Blood Spawn in Spindleclutch 2 has around 3m health and before 1T was the go to DPS test.

    More intense DPS test is the Storm Atronach in AA which has a huge health pool and can be used for small groups to test DPS too or a more sustained solo fight. This one is much rarer though and does have breaks for mechanics.

    Bloodspawn in vSpindle 2 and time your fight to calculate the DPS. Easy to get to. as mentioned 2 mil health.

    Maw in vBC2 is good, has more health, I think 5 mil.

    After U13 the dps skellies will be just as good and I think we will get some basic report from fighting them.

    Good is subjective of course, but like it was mentioned, a minute means 30k dps, which is bare minimum for trials like vet Maw.
