What are the BEST DPS Classes in World of Warcraft ?

For sure, World of Warcraft is a fun game to play. But like almost all MMORPG games, such as SWTOR, LOTRO or Trove, it has a ton of classes to choose from.

Warrior, Rogue, Paladin, Mage, Warlock, Priest, Shaman, Druid, Death Knight, Demon Hunter, etc… enough to make your head spin. And to make matters worse, not all World of Warcraft classes are created equal !

Some classes in WoW are (rightfully) regarded as overpowered, whereas others struggle to maintain consistent damage throughout the game.

In this guide, we’ll take a look at the top 5 best DPS classes in World of Warcraft. We’ll be focusing specifically on DPS (damage per second), not tanking, healing, or support.

I highly recommend you watch the video above, as it provides a very complete guide as to which classes do the most damage in endgame World of Warcraft. It also has some cool black metal music at the end, so don’t miss that out (nice way to complement the epic gameplay, btw).

For those of you too lazy to watch (but seriously, you should !), here are the top 5 best DPS classes / specs / builds in WoW : 5. Affliction Warlock, 4. Fury Warrior, 3. Retribution Paladin, 2. Subtlety Rogue, 1. Holy Priest.

Some – mostly World of Warcraft veteran players – will say that Hunters, Mages and Unholy Death Knights are good for PVP because of crowd control, but in this guide we’re focusing primarily on DPS, so no hunters or mages. Deal with it.
