Used to love playing 2-handed shamans for the giant crits… which class/spec these days has the potential to get the highest crits?
Probably either mm hunter or destro lock?
Don’t know about right now, but in TWW it is probably an Arms Warrior. Demolish hits incredibly hard and even Mortal Strike does substantially more damage than other classes similar abilities. There is also a Cleave meme build that lets you crit for almost 10m in a single hit, but realistically you are never going to run that build in any serious content, or even just for fun.
Shaman have the biggest crit bonus if that’s what you mean, unless you mean the class that when they crit produces the biggest number and that is probably frost mages with those 2m+ glacial spikes.
I think the largest number you can hit is either Destro Lock or Frost Mage.
I don’t play lock so idk what chaos bolts hit for.
But with the right set up, you can hit 1.6M Glacial Spikes
Destruction warlock or potentially Outlaw rogue.
Destruction Warlock since they can stack Crit, Mastery, and Vers.
Outlaw since they can stack Crit and Vers, but Between have 4X crit damage.
But I’m not massively familiar with all of the specializations of all the classes, and if stacking multiple damage effects then the actual “crit” themselves may not be that relevant if looking for confirmed critical strike abilities instead, so if that’s allowed… whatever class has the most potential damage stacking buffs I suppose.
Pyro mage for sure
i’m on tww beta and my arcane mage feels…erm…kinda clunky, you have to earn arcane missiles, which is clunky since theyve always been free cast. is fire really that good?
Can hit shy of 4m on a st crit with Belor’relos as Demo.
Everybody can get that trinket, yeah, but unless their stat prio includes a healthy chunk of vers, iirc, it’s not going to hit as hard.
WW Monk with Beacon can probably slap around as high.
Probably bash barbarian or arms warrior.
haven’t played destro in few xpacs, do chaos bolts even hit that big anymore? or do they have a new nuke?
Crashing Chaos + Nymue’s/Call/Irideus/pot/whatever else gets your bolts comfortably into the millions.
Base damage is eh.
Marksman Ship can get some pretty juicy crits.
They hit good but nothing like back in the day.
Which makes sense when they cast like 3-4 chaos bolts every 10 seconds.
Don’t Fire Mage rely on crit? That might be your thing…
