What class has the best PvE DPS. in raids: depends on the encounter and on YOU. players do dps in gw2, not classes. if you can't play it, you will be way way way below the benchmark. with way below benchmark i don't mean like only 10% lower, but 35% and more. as an example on myself: i was pretty experienced in raids and took my time off the Best support is different from healer, Guardian is the best support class as you need the stability it provides it also has a couple of small ish heals. It's complex (in a good way!) because support in the context of WvW is rather nebulous, with many builds possessing distinct advantages and disadvantages. Can bring heavy CC and reflects at the cost of DPS. Soulbeast - Mix of Burning, poison and bleeding. Pretty durable but rather low DPS compared to other classes, but definitely a safe and easy to play pick. Thief - Very braindead rotation which also involves dodging for DPS, a mix of poison, torment and bleeding. PvE can also be divided into 2 categories - Open world (or personal story) and endgame (raids / fractals / strike missions) For open world PvE, necro is probably the best beginner class and all 3 variants (core, reaper, and scourge) are fantastic. Minion master is probably the easiest build to play and works on all 3. 8. Weaver. The Weaver is the second elite specialization of the core Elementalist and has proven itself to be a powerful DPS class in the game. It gains the ability to utilize two elements at once and perform devastating Dual Attacks, combining them for powerful effects. . they have builds listed and both their benchmarks and difficulty level. the best power dps options currently as the one with the highest damage are catalyst, bladesworn, untamed, (bugged) vindicator, deadeye, weaver and spellbreaker. A little lower but viable are virtuoso, soulbeast (that excels in certain fights) and holosmith. Mechanist, Firebrand, Virtuoso. Almost all classes have excellent builds for various modes in PvE. I don't think it's as easy to say these three are the best. But to answer ur question, Currently I guess the top two would be Guard and Engineer. Being a necro main for as long as I can remember, I might be a bit partial on saying he comes third Yes, including ~43k on small hitbox. Condi willbender has very high damage output (40k IIRC), far higher than power WB which is pretty much on par with DH when running radiance and significantly higher than cFB aswell. Full condi specter has high damage output but falls slightly short of condi DD. Bladesworn has a significantly (3-4k) higher Warrior and Guardian use it a lot in PVE for melee, Mesmer uses it for ranged attacks. I think Necro with greatsword feels good, but its just way too slow. I was thinking on DH, dunno what is it with ranger but I cant like the class :S idk why (never played it tho) soulbeast is a better version of pve thief, and you can reuse your gear and looks.
