    Top DPS going into 7.1.5?

    Any verdict on the DPS specs that will generally be in the top 5 in 7.1.5?

    I'm guessing SPs will still be in there even after the nerfs. Mages are also looking good (Fire still looking to be the best overall even after the changes even though Frost looks like it might be better for single target fights).

    How are the melee DPS looking? From what I'm seeing, it might be Rets and Havocs with maybe an Ass Rogue close behind? Enh also looking good. Did the Ele buffs make them worthwhile now?

    Surrender to madness was nerfed but all other things were buffed. Priest might be one of the top dps even without s2m. On super short fight s2m will still be dominant. Mage will always have one good spec. Fire will be probably worst spec, frost might be looking good but I think arcane is where best mage spec will be.

    Mage is pretty mediocre all things considered, unless I'm unaware of how well Arcane is performing.

    Arms Warrior, Sub Rogue at higher Ilvls, Arcane Mage, BM with Tier could be very strong also... Havoc is simming slightly higher than it is currently with the changes also.. not sure what else... Frost dk with 2m30s sindra fury could be nice also if it crits each time (3-5m)

    It's Warlock, I'm sure. They are just insanely overpowered this whole expansion.

    The top DPS for most guilds will be the one that is very familiar with his class and rotation. Fights also vary a lot, seeing as some are better at single-target/AoE than others.

    As melee Single target goes, I'd say strongest will be Rogue.
    as Ranged Single Target, I'd say strongest will probably be warlock.
    As melee cleave/Aoe I'd say it'll be between Enhacement shaman and frost DK, aoe Specced havoc demon hunter too, they'll three will be close.
    As ranged cleave/aoe I'd say Elemental Shaman.

    That is a stupid think to say... All mythic raiders should be very familiar with their class and rotation.

    You'd be surprised. I raid casually with a 7/7 and 2/3 Mythic guild (I come for the EN farm and the weekly Heroic clears which are open to casual members) and yet am still consistently top or near the top on Nyth, Ursoc, Renferel, Xavius, Odyn and Guarm as a Sin rogue even though I am 10-20 ilvls underneath the guild mains. That's because I have devoted myself almost entirely to the spec and practise constantly, to the point where I am logging 97%+ for my ilvl.

    Humility aside, I am a GREAT Sin Rogue. The difference between "really good" and "great" is noticeable.
