Can wardens do viable dps?

[horus418]

I know how hard DbtD hits, and how to maintain my power in a fight. I actually hadn't meant sustained in the power sense, but just sustained as in long enough that crits don't sway it so much.

Crits always sway parses though, which is why hundreds are needed. I've had more than 100 dps difference in the past when parsing the first boss in SG. This was all during during 5-6 runs one evening farming symbols for the exact same group. 1 warden, 1 burg, 1 rk, 3 champs. Sometimes the stars line up, sometimes they don't. Crits always matter.

I'd love to do so, but I don't have a healer on your server. You're right, you could break 600 dps theoretically on any mob. Would you like to the the simple arithmetic to find out the chance of that happening?

You're right, but you're practically wrong.

Which is it man, right or wrong? If I parsed 570 on a gwibber pre-update, you're trying to tell my I can't now? Give me the simple arithmetic please.

Stop pulling out 600dps parses on 8k mobs then. I can't argue those numbers, because those are the same as mine. But (repeatedly) pulling out your 600dps parse(with 2 WT devs, and several other crits/devs) isn't at all productive.

But I just told you 570 on a 20k mob, is that good enough for you or no?

Wardens out dpsing burgs? when was this? because I ripped aggro off every warden i grouped with, BAR none, at will. This is not hubris, just fact. And that's pre-patch.

Now burgs have a +8% stance and you think they MAY do more than wardens? Pah. Fact is, i don't think you know what you think you know. In fact i know you don't, because i know better.

Lol, another one... Yes, I clearly stated pre-patch that warden dps > burg dps. I clearly stated that burgs currently out dps wardens post patch. I guess you didn't bother to read the whole thread?

Facts are pre-patch the data showed wardens out dpsing burgs. Number = facts not you guessing how much damage it took for you too pull a mob off some tank.

Here is the pepsi challenge for you man... being that you are so cocky, lmao... we are on the same server... come group with me and pull a mob off me "at will", and I'll give you 100gp and delete my warden. If I keep aggro, you have to delete your burg. You up for it?

Now if you had had a shred of humility, you'd have said "most burgs" just like posters here are always quick to reply "most wardens" when defending poor tanking. Fact is, you didn't. And yeah, there are some awful players out there of all colors. However, they are not representative of the whole, as the warden community is so quick to point out. Nor should you try to paint it as such to bolster your already weak position.

My stance always had to do with equal gear and equal skill. I don't use words like "most", because I haven't played with "most", of the people in this game. If the old burg parses out there are from garbage burgs you how about you point them out so I know, but, as it stands, they were the top burg parses out there.

If i were so inclined i'd show you how silly you really are being, as you are on my server and all, but i really don't feel the need to "prove" anything to you or anyone else. But this staggering level of misinformation and patting ones self on the back is irritating to those that know better.

Oh but you do need to prove... you opened up the can of worms... come pull a few things off me "at will",. For the record, I don't pat myself on the back at all... It just seems that way because I'm defending something. My stance is that anybody can pump out the same numbers for any class, period. If player X can log in to toon Y and reach some number, player Z can do the exact same thing also logging in to toon Y. I ain't nothing special, though you sure claim to be...
