What's the highest DPS a magblade can do?

assuming BiS gear/skills and perfect animation cancelling

I'm currently doing 40k DPS parses with my magblade at cp573 I'm wondering what's the theoretical DPS cap when it comes to magblades? And how does magblade DPS compare to the best DPS class?

    Near the low end for top DPS. About the same as MagWarden.

    I’m not sure what the actual number is with changes.
    Looking for any guildies I used to play with:
    Havoc Warhammer - Alair
    LoC EQ2 - Mayi and Iskiab
    PRX and Tabula Rasa - Rift - Iskiab
    Or anyone else I used to play games with in guilds I’ve forgotten

    I really don't know why people are obsessed with how much damage they can inflict on a dummy. Real world test with combat metrics addon should tell you what percentage of damage, healing, etc you are doing. In a 4 person dungeon, if you are consistently pulling 30-40% in a vet dlc dungeon for damage, that should be sufficient, providing you are actually working as a group and being successful in the dungeon as a group. If that's not good enough then nothing is. If you are doing 25% or less then perhaps you shout respec as a healer.

    I simply must protest. There are no Penguin avatars for me to use in the forums.

    BTW, I use arch too

    I'm an elitist if I'm not sweating out world record DPS numbers I can't sleep at night.

    On a serious note you're correct but it can't hurt to try to do as much DPS as possible.

    I can tell you that Liko was breaking 88k on the Iron Atronach last week on PTS (5.2.4). Magblade seems to be right in line with Magcro and double pet Magsorc. Magden is slightly behind, MagDK is a little ahead (as it should be because melee), and Magsorc without pets is a few k behind Magblade.
