PVE: Most 'supporty' DPS spec?

[OGXanos]

The MOST? Ret. Every time. I'm Biased but I'm not wrong on this one.

[deviantcultist]

You have the following options :

- Disc to go for a true hybrid of healing and dps
- Ret for a melee dps with significant group buffs
- Tanks have the dpsey feeling while doing a support role
- Druid kinda supports by being versatile in any spec

Not really. When was the last time a hybrid was top dps? Never.

First week of HFC then got gutted.

Death knights get yelled by many dps-addict "MASS-GRIP!!". It feels like they will not make it without death knights anymore. So to support the mental states of many dps-players I say DK.

/edit sorry thought this is general, not sure if massgrip does still exist in legion.

gorefiend's grasp is blood only now and on a 3 minute cooldown

I would say Shadow priest, although I haven't tried it in legion beta.

[Alydael]

Vengeance Demon Hunters have a similar effect too.

Shadow priest cannot afford to waste a single GCD doing anything other than dps or their rotation breaks.

I guess because they have to keep building insanity? Have you played much SP in beta? How is it?

Ret pally= the greater blessings
Warlock= healthstone, demonic gateway, and summoning stone
demon hunter= mobility for "click something" and also the dps's shadow circle that reduces damage done to people in it
are the two i know, i havent looked a TON into alot of the specs yet though, ive gone into their basics on the beta

Spriest #1 in first fight, Enh #1 in second, Kormog has a druid in top 10, Hellfire council has Druids all over it, etc...

Hybrids are fine.

Holy F...

first of: No one half normal logs on Worldoflogs.

Sec: Normal mode Rly ? Whats wrong with you dude ?

Definitely Retribution. You directly choose to buff and support specific allies, similar to the old single-target party buffs, and you get various versions that fit different circumstances. A lot about the new ret revolves around helping party members.

There's a tab..right there to change between modes. Even if you change it, the link stays the same. I don't really know what you wanted me to do, but I did list Mythic encounters where hybrid classes were in the top 10. The point was Hybrid Tax does not exist. Hybrids are regularly simming in the top-10, while pure classes(namely hunter) consistently sim in the bottom-15 on all three specs.

Also, I'm not sure if English is your first language, but I honestly have no idea what your "first of" means. Not trying to be rude, I just can't actually tell what you're trying to say.

Because top 10 logs arent cheesed at all and are totally representative of the whole playerbase.

So look at #20 of each class, look at sims, look at the 60 percentiles etc. What evidence would be good enough for you to accept that Hybrids don't do 5%-25% less DPS than all pure-dps classes?

[idunnowatdo]

Druids imo. Brez heals hotw tank or whatever. Boomkins to be more specific
