Why aren't rogues top DPS?

[guineapig]

I found that slightly odd that rogues aren't the top damage class with their narrow skill-set. Usually there's some sort of compromise with a variety of factors. For a DPS class these are normally scaling DPS vs. Utility for inter-class balance.

This is what the thread is about. Not about a solo enchanter with a planar mob. When was the last time you saw a rogue soloing a planar mob? How long would an enchanter last with a charmed pet with no healer? Sure you can parse higher DPS from the planar mob then the rogue but you are parsing in a vacuum and you are also way off the topic of the conversation.

My main is an enchanter, I know how much DPS we can do, everyone does. You guys are real geniuses with your parsers. It doesn't change the fact that rogue is a straight DPS class and enchanter isn't. It also doesn't change the fact that rogues currently have the highest DPS of any DPS class in the game. Reread the thread and stay on topic.

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

If this were true it would take 2-3 rogues in a group to out damage a single enchanter and it currently doesn't. So who is talking out of their ass?
