Not all classes are equally viable in World of Warcraft: Shadowlands when it comes to DPS. The truth is some classes are vastly superior to others and you can benefit greatly from knowing which ones.
If you’re confused about which DPS classes are stronger, look no further.
This World of Warcraft: Shadowlands DPS rankings will give you an overview of the current damage per second of each class so you can better strategize your moves.
Note: The list is based on simulations by SimulationCraft and is up to date with the latest 9.0.2 patch.
The DPS is calculated from a single-target Raid Fight in Patchwerk style with a fight length of 240 to 360 seconds. All classes assume an item level of 226 with a Legendary and 2 Conduits. The simulated raid is Castle Nathria.
