Introduction
We present you a Single Target DPS Ranking of all damage-dealing specs available in World of Warcraft Battle for Azeroth. The list is based on simulations and may vary from what you see in in-game Raid encounters and Dungeons. To simulate optimal Single Target DPS for each specialization, we have chosen the best talent builds, as well as the best available equipment, and the optimal Raid compositions. To add a bit more credibility to the results, we have decided to include some Raid mechanics, that lower overall damage output to our calculations (so, again, this list will vary from the maximum DPS list). Please remember that this list resembles raw numbers, and is based on calculations only, so it doesn't show which class is the best for current Raid content, but visualizes how high raw damage output of certain classes is.
We have decided to show the DPS in the form of percentages, where the highest DPS serves as a reference and equals to 100% (in our case it is the Enhancement Shaman which tops the charts with over 30 000 Damage per Minute), this way the differences between each spec are better visible and can be compared more easily.

END NOTE This is an early version of our guide, and we plan to upgrade upon it, so please leave your suggestions in the comment section below. Please remember that this tier list is based on raw DPS simulation, and the real performance of each spec may vary greatly in different encounters and situations. Things like the utility, Raid buffs, survivability, and mobility have not been taken into account, which means that Specs higher on this list are better at doing damage, but they are not necessarily better overall than the ones below them. |

Tank Rankings Overview
These rankings are created using SimulationCraft, a program that is highly tested and trusted for simulating in-game encounters with characters.
We use SimulationCraft because simulators permit a high degree of control by allowing us to use specific talents, rotations, gear, possible boss mechanics, etc. to arrive at repeatable results that can be compared across specs and time. Also, simulators allow us to average out results from thousands of fights to get a feel for how a spec performs all of the time and not in one amazing fight.
If you are curious to learn about the simulation fight encounters of Max and Real, we recommend to read our past articles that describe them in Part I and Part II.
What is The Theck-Meloree Index (TMI)?
Dmg Ranking 8.1.5 Schools
The Theck-Meloree Index is one of the metrics used to evaluate tanking specs. TMI measures the smoothness and spikiness of damage received by a tank. High TMI values means a tank is taking a large amount of spike damage and low TMI values means a tank is taking a low amount of spike damage. TMI values are roughly proportional with every 1000 TMI equivalent to spike damage worth 1% of total health. For example, a score of 135k TMI means that spec is taking damage spikes as high as 135% of their total health.
What is Damage Taken Per Second (DTPS)?
Damage Taken Per Second is one of the metrics that is used to evaluate the performance of tanking specs. DTPS represents the average amount of net damage that a tank receives from all damage sources after any healing and absorption mechanics. Low DTPS numbers are typically better than high DTPS numbers because that means the tank spec is taking less damage overall.
DTPS as a metric option is currently disabled due to quality control issues and will be renabled soon after 8.1.5.
Dmg Ranking 8.2.5
What is Damage Per Second (DPS)?
Dmg Ranking 8.1.5 College
DPS is Damage Per Second, the same metric used for evaluating damage dealing specs. For tanks, this data is more fun to look at than it is usable. Tank smash!
