What is the Best DPS Class in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight?
Havoc Demon Hunters excel in AoE and single-target DPS, topping the meters in both Mythic+ and Raids. Combined with its survivability, mobility, and incredibly powerful buff, the Havoc Demon Hunter is one of the best DPS classes in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight.
For those dedicated to the Mythic+ grind, the Windwalker Monk is also an excellent choice. Its survivability is incredible, and its AoE damage is nothing to sneeze at, either. Ring of Peace and Leg Sweep are fantastic spells that can be utilized creatively during dungeons. Windwalker Monks may launch straight to the top in Raids but are still a solid choice for a melee DPS.
Finally, Sublety and Outlaw Rogues are both fantastic choices for DPS in Dragonflight. Though Rogues pack a punch, being a good DPS class isn’t always about pure damage. The utility provided by spells like Feint, Cloak of Shadows, and Shroud of Concealment are invaluable in PvE content.
Don’t forget that playing a class and specialization that you enjoy is still the most important factor. High numbers are all well and good, but the overall goal is to have fun. Unless you’re a Survival Hunter.
