Friendly Competition. Highest PVE DPS

In spirit of competition and in lieu of great debate, i thought it would be a lot of fun to have a friendly competition for bragging rights. Lots of people have great opinions on class and effectiveness i thought this wpuld be a great way for people to "put up"

I'd like to see who on the forums can pull off the highest dps on a skeleton dummy with each class, both magika and stamina versions for each of the 4 classes.

We will also seperate this by platform as well
PC and Console

Here are the rules.
1. You must post a video
2. You are not allowed to have any help in forms of another player.
3. You must show your gamertag in the video.
4. You can use any gear combination you see fit.
5. You can enter as many times as you like.
6. Highest DPS for each will be edited into this post.

Winners will walk away with bragging rights.

Any takers? Is sorc really the master class? Does nightblade truly excel at only being in the shadows? Do DKs have the worst sustain? Can templars do more than heal?

    Kinda what I thought. Ye lets make a thread and show zos that 40k dps is totally normal while they're trying to homogenize classes.

    Very much what I thought. Yes let's convince the same people trying to homogonize classes, amd can't play without an antideath cheat, that 40k dps is *** normal for players.

    This is a competition, i thought competition was a way to make things a little less doom and gloom, and honestly id like to see more stuff like this.

    I don't see why that should matter in PvE. So what someone can hit a NPC with high DPS, why does that matter? makes running a Dungeon/Trial, quests, delves, ect that much faster and easier. Now if this was for PvP then it's understandable, but not for PvE.

    There's also the matter with racial passives. There are always going to be people with higher dps just because they are on the optimal race for their class role. It's an unfair competition to those people who prefer a different race for RP purposes.

    I'm gonna make the other Mag Sorcs mad. Apparently if I do somethimg crazy I *alone* get the class nerfed.... like that's how it works -_-

    Here's a purely solo 45.1K DPS parse on the target skeleton. Coulda been 46K+ but I was not perfect at the end.

    Remember this isn't representative of an actual trial DPS setting so keep that in mind. There are people who will get quite angry when you so much as attempt to mention DPS parses.

    For real? My magdk is doing 42k ish, when I can sustain it. But I cheated a little bit (halfed the dummy) to help with sustain issues. Can you explain your setup a little? My dk could use some pointers. I'm doing 5-2 inferno inferno.

    I literally thought that is the exact argument the PVPers use when trying to blame PVE players for all the nerfs...we like to point fingers at our group members and complain about their dps and fancy class skills till they get nerfed.

    Isn't that what we do PVE players? Must be us, surely nerfs aren't because of the PVPers :trollface:

    Ohh i see. Healers run lightning wall and weakening poisons in trials so our guild won't allow us to use lightning wall in dps test. It must be fire wall.
