Has anyone run the numbers to see which Scrapper Powersets and build has the best DPS? Is it still fire?

The rikti pylon results thread in the scrappers forum is the place to check for scrappers dps at the high end. Fire is usually not the highest, though.

Check the thread that Microcosm mentioned, it's on page 1 in the scrapper boards.

IIRC: DM/SD is still the flat out DPS king in the Pylon test.

There was a thread around here somewhere that evaluated StJ as contending strongly with DM....


City of Heroes was my first MMO, & my favorite computer game.

The current top scrapper time without lore pets is a db/elec.
Then there's a preponderance of dm/sd, with some stj/sd, etc.

Really, secondary seems to be quite important, the leading ones for damage being: shields because of AAo; electric for lightning reflexes and damage aura; sr for quickness; and fire for, well, everything.

If you mean single target dps, then it's the set that can stack the most resistance debuff.

Thus, dual blade, and the new stj and tw are looking to be good debuffers as well.

(sigh)

It's City of Debuff's. True story.

It's a shame about that debuff situation, because I really like Martial Arts. But it can't take any achiles procs and only one PbAoE so only one pvp -res proc... sadface.
