Hardest hitting ability

[Maynards]

I just saw a vid of a shammy getting one shotted by warrior.

It made me think, what is the hardest hitting ability in the game atm, what class can pull the highest yellow number in a single spell. Self CD's are allowed ofc.
I think it might be Execute or Obliterate, i've seen some 500k execute but i've never seen 400k+ obliterate so I am kinda going for execute.

Can you post logs or ss if possible ?

Temple of whatever BG It's called - Chaos bolt + Orb wielder = 700k+ Crit instant death

Obliterate is a fair way down the list.

If you dont count abilities like execute, think 5stack heroic strike wins out.

Indeed. Heroic strike wins at this time followed by Chaos Bolt.

Chaos bolt, really?

[prestilence]

Brewmaster stam stack + Baleroc + Blaze of Glory + Fort brew (to gain more hp) then using Touch of death.

Basically get as much stam as you can, use raid cds that stack proc HP
Use personals to proc even more HP

And touch of death.. I wont tell you the highest amount I got, because frankly people wouldn't believe me.

But this is cheating to answer the question of this thread.. manipulating a present day mechanic to overwhelm a past mechanic, still fun to do though.

Couple millions lol ?

highest hitting ability with cast timer: Chaos Bolt without a doubt.
highest hitting ability with no cast timer: Chaos Wave without a doubt

Conclusion: anything with Chaos in it, hits hard this expansion ;P

Chaos bolt and execute is winning that race by a lot.

[Zethras]

Touch of Death can mathematically be the highest.

Chaos Bolt is the highest i've seen in practice.

I like my Lava bursts. Especially when i proc 3 with shaman talent.

I have to say a tank warrior will win this competion until they nerf execute/avatar on them, I mean I personally have had a shield slam for over 800k havent really looked at my executes though lol

[tielknight]

Does it count if i'm on a quest and what i'm "wielding" turns on me and hits me?

[Dristereau]

Highest Personal Hit is a Dragon's Roar for me. I'm in mainly Dreadful Gear, ungemmed and unenchanted, and managed to get a 811k Crit on a Orb Carrier in ToK (Damage Done Modifiers). Would love it to have been a 5 Stack TFB, but not seen one of them in the last week...

[Flaks]

I think one of the heart of fear boss mechanics allows for increased damage and warriors have been seeing 4 million + damage execute crits.

[Justignoreme]

My personal hardest hit was a 327k heroic strike crit on a level 90 target dummy, using Spear of Xuen. On my 85 arms warrior. It was 5 stacks TFB with CS ofc.

On HM SG 10m yesterday I had 250k AP with Vengeance, I got a 1.5mil avenger's shield it was cool haha
