Maximim defiance and inferno is most blaster can do actually, that's the most damaging nuke and defiance is enough to cap your damage.

I may be worng, but according to Sherks' hero planner, Inferno does a total base damage of 12.5001 whereas TB does 13.889 ( DoT included ).
But, from the power description: [ QUOTE ]
Also, not listed in the Brawl Index is a random 0 - 10 tick of .5556 fire damage.
[/ QUOTE ] That brings the damage potential over TB.

My planner has them at the same base damage, with the DoT taking inferno to a slightly higher level.

does a corrupter doing fulcrum shift, aim and inferno compare to blaster aim and build up inferno?
controller with a group held using fulcrum shift and fire ball with double dmg must come close too
IIRC isn't a Brute damage cap like 800%? So im guessing that would prtty much dominate anything.
I cant remember the figues, but wouldnt Aim+Buildup Total Focus be a larger hit on a single target than a nuke?
Shnyet AWAY
Yeah but the base is lower, brute is 0.75 to scrapper 1.25 (something like that).
So with scrapper cap @500% and brute @800% this would make brute 6 and scrapper 6.25? If thats correct then scrappers indeed have a higher damage possibility over brutes, not sure about blaster figures hence why i never mentioned them. (correct me if i'm wrong, my recollection of the figures is hazy 
).
Depend os whether you are looking at a single attack or a single attacking chain in which case for a stalker Id suggest the following:
Build Up, Asassins Strike, Placate, Evicerate
Ok its two moves but does a shed load of damage.

Total Focus has a brawl index of about 9.5, whereas each of the 3 nukes have a base index of around 12, so the nuke does quite a bit more.
Edit: I suppose the Brute TF would do more than a blaster nuke when at damage cap then, yea..

Uhm... there are more damaging shots a stalker has access to... Energy Transfer being the highest? That is, besides an AS crit.
Nope, cause critical hits with ripper do more damage than energy transfer. Energy transfer cannot do criticals.
So AS -> placate -> ripper, would do more damage,
than AS -> placate -> energy transfer.

Critical headsplitter at the damage cap.
10 (1000% damage cap + critical)* 7,22 (brawl index of headsplitter according Sharks hero planer * 22,51 (Scrapper using brawl in the arena against a blaster, That must be base lvl since nothing affects it).
Thats 1625,222 points of damage in PvP. So basicly that would 1-hit-kill tanks at lvl37 (No accolades or other HP boosters) and lvl50 scrappers.
AS at damage cap
19,446 (Brawl index of AS, still sharks)* 5 (damage cap)* 22,51 (lets presume that stalkers and scrappers hits equally hard with brawl, I dont know if this is true.)
Thats 2188,6473 points of damage which will 1-hit-kill a tank at lvl50 (Without hp-boosting)

What? It wont crit when it's performed while hidden? 
Just checked the brawl value of a stalker. Its only 8,86.
So AS is only 862,3438 presuming that damage cap is 500% which it prolly isnt.

If so, then an update in the power description would be nice.

Damn! I've been reading the description in the builder, and I assumed it was the same in game.

It's WAI because otherwise it'd hit harder than AS, with none of the start-up time.
Ok, what do you reckon is the hardest attack in the game, player wise?
My thoughts,
1) Brute: 99% fury, Build Up, Fiery Embrace, Energy Transfer
2) Scrapper: Build Up, Headsplitter, Critical
3) Blaster: Aim, Build Up, Max Defiance, Thunderous Blast
4) Stalker: Build Up, Assassin Strike
Im not sure, but i reckon the brute has the best chance of the highest DoT.
