Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (2024)

1.

About the Tier List

Season 4, unlike any other season launch, has limitedamount of class changes so far. Our analysis provides an estimate of how the currentraid meta will be impacted, but it may require further tweaking in the coming weeks.

This tier list is entirely based on DPS viability for Season 4of Dragonflight. The primarytraits we are looking for have not changed and are what you would expect for raidingcontent. Mainly, we care about single-target damage; some burst cleave or AoE,and then defensive capabilities on a raid-wide or individual scale. Unique class utilitybuffs are also worth noticing and can be worth bringing a specific class for, but veryfew buffs are spec-specific.

While the traits that make a character valuable in a raid have not changedmuch, there are two incredibly important new factors to consider.

  • Because of the new talent trees, classes now have the freedom of choiceto decide how to build in various situations. However, this also means thatcertain classes are forced into specializing in either AoE or single target fordifferent bosses. While some classes have excellent pure single-target damage, theycan lose a significant portion of that damage when forced to take even a few pointsof AoE talents.

1.1.

A Final Warning

It is incredibly important to emphasize that just because a DPSspecializationis low in the tier list, it does not mean that you should ignore it completely.For the vast majorityof cases, you should choose to bring the better player, not the betterspecialization. That does notmean you never need to think about your raid composition, just that most of thetime, player skillwill be more important than the difference between classes, assuming you alreadyhave the requiredraid buffs. All being lower tier means is that allelse being equal, those specs will be less desirable for the raid based oncurrent tuning.

Frost Mage single-target damage is excellentcompared to most of the ranged options in the current fated season, whichmakes them rather an lucrative Ranged DPS option.

Arcane Mage

Patch 10.2.7 update: Arcane Magereceived no changes going forward to the raiding tier, as well as, keeping theirtier-set unchanged. Arcane Mage has competitive single-target,but more importantly, has some of the best single target burst damage in the game for asmall burst windows. Arcane is a top-heavy spec in terms of the skill required to trulymake use of its phenomenal toolkit; in the hands of the right player, it is incrediblypowerful in terms of the raw damage and burst potential. Mages are also still quite strongdefensively, and immunities like Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (47) Ice Block / Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (48) Ice Cold will always have valuein a raid. Anytime there is a damage increase phase or a requirement for a burst-damageorientated scenario, Arcane Mage will be great.

Patch 10.2.7 update: Shadow Priestreceived a buff to their "old-new" tier-set, from Season 2, which will be playedin the next fated season. Shadow Priests have one ofthe strongest external damage cooldown - Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (54) Power Infusion, which can benefitboth them and the chosen target thanks to the Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (55) Twins of the Sun Priestess talent.By itself, Shadow Priest damage profile is excellent as not only they havegood single-target but the ability to cleave multiple targets effectively, evenif they are not close to each other. Additionally, they can off-heal with Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (56) Vampiric Embrace,which can be a lifesaver in critical situations during raids. Lastly, the defensive cooldown,Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (57) Dispersion, can be used instead of an "immunity" soak when necessary. Overall,we believe the specialization is in a competitive shape to be considered as one of the bestRanged options for the upcoming fated raiding tier.

Beast Mastery Hunter

Patch 10.2.7 update: Beast Mastery Hunterreceived no changes going forward to the next raiding tier, as well as, keeping theirtier-set unchanged.

However, oneof the main disadvantages of having Beast Mastery Hunteris that they suffer from a lack of spread cleaving (when mobs are far away from each other)and is relatively squishy compared to most of the Ranged options.

Destruction Warlocksare known for their decent damage output against a single target, as well as their abilityto deal an incredible two-target cleave damage thanks to Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (107) Havoc. Additionally,their bursts are strengthened by the use of Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (108) Summon Infernal, have a good defensiveprofile, and, as every Warlock spec, provide valuable raid utility. Overall,we believe Destruction Warlock could still benefit from further single-targetadjustments to be placed anywhere higher on the tier-list.

Elemental Shaman

Patch 10.2.7 update: Elemental Shamanreceived no changes going forward to the next fated tier, as well as, keeping theirtier-set unchanged. Elemental Shaman is known for its greatsingle-target damage while still being able to handle cleave and AoE attacks.This makes it a great choice for encounters with varying damage profiles.However, compared to other classes, such as Mage and Warlock,Elemental Shaman lacks the raid utility and durability to compete.One area where they excel is in their ability to deal damage while moving(depending on your build), making them great against heavy movement boss encounters.Overall, while Elemental Shamans may not have the highest DPS ranking, their strengthlies in their versatility and mobility.

Patch 10.2.7 update: Frost Death Knightreceived a buff to their "old-new" tier-set, from Season 2, which will be playedin the Awakened Raid Tier. Frost Death Knight's biggest strength comes fromtheir ability to deal with great single target while simultaneously cleaving multipletargets at once. While their damage is not so impressive during off-cooldowns,they really excel in situations where multiple targets are present. There are a few specific fightswhere the Frost Death Knight shines, especially the ones whereDragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (163) Death Grip ability can be utilized (not many of them). Overall,with great defensive capabilities, a Raid "utility" (Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (164) Anti-Magic Zone)and a decent damage profile, Frost Death Knight might not be the strongestDPS right now, but with the right tunning, it has the capability to climb much higher.

In addition, they have received a flat 3% buffto all of their damage abilities. Fury Warriors's core strength -their damage output is relatively weak compared to the rest of the DPSspecializations. They still possess one of the strongest non-healer raidcooldowns - Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (170) Rallying Cry, which is always a great addition to each raid.Moreover, every raid requires you to have at least 1Warrior due to Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (171) Battle Shout being a mandatoryraid buff, you always stand a chance to be picked up even if youroverall performance is not there. To conclude, we believe that Fury Warriorhas an underperforming damage profile, but overall has the packageneeded to be placed higher, we expect positive adjustments to significantlyelevate their position on our tier list.

In a situations where only a single target is required,Outlaw might not be your best choice of DPS, as there are specs that can domuch better. Don't forget that Rogue has a solid set of defensive abilities,as well as the ability to apply Dragonflight DPS Rankings: Fated Season 4 Raiding Tier List (Patch 10.2.6 / Season 4) (176) Atrophic Poison debuff, which is a greatraid utility for any purpose of the raid (reclear or progress). Overall, we wouldlike to see more positive damage adjustments on behalf of Outlaw Rogue to beplaced anywhere higher on the tier list.

The performance of Survival Huntersis looking dire leading to this fated season as their damage profile needs furtherpositive adjustments as it is currently one of the lowest.In addition, one of the biggest disadvantages of Survival Hunter is coming fromlimited melee slots in each raid tier, other melee DPS options fitbetter the current raid profile better, and therefore, you will be pushed outside ofthe ideal raid composition. Of course, this should not discourage you from playing itbut rather be mindful of your approach.
