EM best single target damage?

I was just checking.

Is energy melee still the best single target damage stalker set?

I know that it does some wicked damage, but I'm not sure if it's officially the best or not.

Maybe when stalkers get Broad Sword, EM will be old news.

I think it depends on what you mean by "Single target damage".
If we're talking about burst, then EM is probably still tops when you look at what ET and TF can do in one shot.
But then you have a set like DM. DM doesn't put out the giant orange number (Crit on MG and SM can be highly satisfying though) but it's a flurry of non-stop damage.

Most of the other sets have some decent single target damage(Spines probably falls behind a bit) but run into resistance issues and some have more AoE mixed in instead of single target attack.

As Heulengeist says, DM does a ton of dps. It doesn't have the big booms of ET, but in the time it takes to animate those attacks I think Dm easily pulls ahead (this is also helped by siphon life being a real attack now).

So both Energy and Dark are the heavy hitters.

Thanks guys
