Why aren't rogues top DPS?

Any luck coming up with that magical mob name or your parses yet? Take your time, I know it's asking a lot.

We're not here to do charity work for the disabled.

Still need your hand held in a game you've been playing 12 years? Go figure something out for yourself.

No thank you sir, I do quite fine in game. Also, I don't think there is a single person here that has played Everquest for 12 straight years.

I'm sorry that you can't back up your claims but if it makes you feel any better, nobody was impressed anyway.

I remember Shewz now. He's the one that came here complaining when he lost his King camp after having to zone 3-4 times while trying to charm a single Shaman. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Rogues/monks do 25-36dps compared to the pet's 65.

36 x 2 = 72

Y'all are retarded, I do like 2-3 times more dps than any rogue or monk.

You can see now why I called BS in his entire claim. Thanks for helping me prove my point.

Also, the parse for the rogue has to be done in the same zone with the same mobs, for the same length of time (we're talking entire raids worth of parses), with the same buffs on the player and same debuffs on the mob but we don't even have to get in to that now.

Can this specific pet be found in more than one zone cause I see level 50 rogues all over the place.

oh not to mention Rogue's have the most wildly innacurate damage parsing over time of any class. to parse a rogue's DPS you seriously need to take an average DPS on every mob that the rogue engages over the length of a raid. Even then, you're likely (without a large enough sample) to only capture a "good" backstab day, or a "bad" backstab day.

So yes, I guess ENC damage > Rogue damage if your guild name ends in "Basterds" "inity" or "Ascension" because you're able to; sufficiently heal enchanters, help them CC while they recharm, and go about normal raid duties.
