  • Sorry, that was in regards to Trinity's comment about imbalance if they were to improve the arbiter. It was mentioned that it would cause an imbalance if they gave the arbiter AOE powers, which they are doing. However, improvement of the DPS cleric does not mean they need to add AOE, but they could increase the single…
  • Yes there is some crossover between "multi-role" classes though essentially each class has something that they do better than other classes, it's called balance and standardizing DPS across all classes would cause imbalance. So in that case, take away single target damage from the wizard and allow the arbiter to do what…

  • Yes plasticbat, it is the damage board I am specifically talking about. I do believe the board as a whole does have a few good points and is useful. However, it is the constant battle for the top between dps and the disregard for certain classes, as well as the constant banter and arguing about "my dps can out do your DPS"…
  • So you solidify my argument about the damage board in your first paragraph. "How is a group to know where the weak points are without the damage board". First, if a DPS is good at single targets, and not aoe, then of course they are going to be lower than classes that can kill lots of enemies. Second, just because someone…
  • > @"trinity706#8838" said: > Arbiter's can DPS, currently just not as high/comparable as other non-pure DPS classes (for the most part). The Arbiter paragon path outputs more damage than Devout which is why it is classified as a "DPS", not because it is simply "supposed" to be right up there with other "DPS" classes...…

  • > @"trinity706#8838" said: > Nah, the OP CLEARLY wants Cleric DPS to be comparable to other DPS classes LoL Absolutely. There should be no reason a cleric dps should place lower than any other dps class. The warlock also has a heal path, yet they still do damage as a DPS. So yes, dps, no matter what class should be able to…

  • I totally agree with weebz. While you talk about working on companions, there are dps that are end game, but still cannot keep up with the buff you put on certain dps classes. Elites will not even look at some classes for new content runs, even if they have the stats, bis weapons, bis companions, mounts, etc. Been playing…
