Guide The New & Accurate Best Dps Weapons Ranking

I'm sure many of you have seen this thread about the "Best DPS Weapons" in the game. This thread poses as a guide to the "best damaging weapons" in the game, and effectively, affected market prices as people often refer the weapons and their presumed dps ranking to trade items.

However one thing I'm very unsatisfied about this guide is how it determine the DPS of the weapons, wt it does is using this: Base damage formula: (Min. Damage + Max. Damage) / 2 x Attack Speed Multiplier

Yes, the guide only calculate the base damage of the weapons, but didn't calculate any of the following factors that are equally important in calculating DPS:

• Min. Skill Point Requirements
• Average Damage Boost IDs
• T6 Powders of that element

Therefore using motoki's damage calculator and 5 hours of my revision time I've constructed a much more accurate best DPS weapons chart for each classes, the chart will include two information about the weapon

• Melee DPS
• Average Non-Crit Main Spell Damage

As most weapons are spell based, the ranking will be based on the Spell Damage

Spoiler: Notes

• If weapon only have one type of element, the calculation for powders will use that element's powders
• If weapon is neutral or have more than one type of element, the calculation for powder slots will use +18 base damage for each slots instead, denoted with "Neutral Avg"
• Neutral weapons like Hive and Wybel sets will be lower than actual as no skill points is calculated, only some popular options are listed e.g. Hive Dagger with Thunder Powders
• Weapon playstyle may vary causing this to factor in different ways with varying builds, some weapon builds may do more overall damage than the other
• Any damage calculated does not include crit damage, meaning if its a thunder weapon the damage will be much higher, if the weapons has high crit chance but is does slightly less non-crit damage than the higher rank weapon, it will be prioritised and denoted

IMPORTANT UPDATES

• Updated Crit Damage
• Added All Element's Powders on Hive Weapons
• Added Warp and Fatal variations for comparison

Archer - Bows


Assassin - Daggers


Mage - Wands


Warrior - Spears



i'll probably write some conclusion of sort if i have ideas later on

At this point, there should just be a tag called "Ranking"

 

I'm suprised Hellstrand has less dps than ignis

 

"Stratiformis is the #1 DPS Bow"
*Made a ws build with Strati*
I wonder who that person is

 

"Warp is the best dps wand"

 

Did you take +skill points into account?

 

Probably

 

if you mean the +sp on the weapon then yes i did, i took the average of every sp and +- damage ids

 

Does it mean I can say flameshot is better than alka yet?
