I'm four years late, but wouldn't corruption technically be the hardest hitting ability? Legion gave it an infinite duration. Technically it's just one click but infinite damage potential.
I can't wait to see if we get a reforge of this talking about remix damage included, folks are doing some stupid numbers
I mean, MoP chaos bolt could hit for 3-4 times a player hp and shadowburn for about 140% of a player's hp i full mythic gear. A side note about combustion in early MoP/end of cata: the strongest dot you could get was way higher than what's said in the video and was actually only reachable by lvl 80 twink mages, that outclasssed literally every other dps in the game, even max level ones, given they could hit the target
all cringe nu-wow shit
loved the combustion from MoP. It was straight forward hilarious in 3on3 Arena. Perfectly done, the enemy team just melted in only 3-4 secs.
PoM Pyro
1 that should be on the top 3 was the dk chains of ice + legion legendary, which washitting for 30M on the tomb of srgeras so im assuming you could hit even more in antorus at the end of the xp
Combustion was super in WOD aswell our 4 set piece from Blackrock Foundry allowed us to cast 4 instant pyros and combust afterwards
1:31 ???? I rememeber it being cast on people in the barrens
Legion was dumb and stupid showcase of how incompetent new blizzard is.
Definitely forgot Blood Mirror from legion vs mythic renferal hitting for ~100 million
what do you mean with ,,used to have,, ? vanilla is the only wow that should exist
I remember in vanilla I absolutely flattened a dude with a 5,400 execute like 2 seconds into combat 😅
Rolling ignite from the end of Vanilla
In a raid with several fire mages, one would get credit for all the ignites stacking and it would start to get so hard that fire mages would pull hate. Against loatheb specifically you'd get bonkers numbers
Who didn't macro pom/pyro/tali together back in the day:)?
I don't think anyone is gonna see this but. As of Dragonflight. Subtlety rogue has secret technique which combined with a load of damage buffs and coldblood can hit for well over 350k as of being 430 ilvl
I see the list from begore Rextroy got popular. "The only time"? Bro he oneshots raid bosses every other patch by "clever use of game mechanics"
TBC Assassination Rogue, Cold Blood+Envenom at 5 combo points, with a few other things. Used to 1 shot players in Pvp.
How about Martin's Fury? Technically, those were ALL raid boss one-shot kills. lol
I am at number 3 now, the first is gonna be paladin and second the rolling mage dot, right?
1. What hits hardest is how bad wow is now
Pom pyro. Done. Vanilla that was a 1 shot kill lmao
lmao i remember getting Sheeped and knowing that the Pyro was coming for my rogue cheeks XD
warlock lvl 84 twinks in MoP could hit 1+mill chaos bolts on players with 100k hp.
hell, you don't even need to go to twinks, BiS locks could hit over 2mill on geared 500k hp players in BGs, add Havoc to the mix, and you have an ability that mops the floor with most on this list.
Nah 5 million DMG shadow bolt in MoP
15:14 like hell no, 1 mage could win alterac highhandedly 1 good or average combustion and spread it on 30+ players and its gg
Holy fuck vengence blood dk pvp. We were 4 pvpers and The Dick geared dk killed us all. Insane
Hahah Hiru this is the first time where your qualifications for what fits this list had me like “wait what the ef is this list for?”
16:09 correction !! , he intentionally let himself get crit in a duel vs a rogue and 2 x worn daggers, ,thats how he build up the stacks
I'd love to see you talk about Glacial spike critting in legion with a TON of the crit amp totems from shamans (pvp talent). Had this happen at a world boss and I don't think I've ever seen a current content boss die that fast. Spamming frostbolts with as much damage that I can get on nearby mobs. Then just hitting the Glacial spike and hoping for a crit 😀
Ahh Vengeance! When the dps list started at 2nd place cause 1st was by default reserved for the tank. Intentionally getting hit by mechanics to increase vengeance, best one was the intermission on Garrosh, everyone was supposed to dodge his frontal and you’d just sit in it like a Chad.
My personal favorite, was Vanilla WoW, Ambush w/ 2.0 Speed Daggers like the High Warlord/Grand Marshall Daggers, you basically just insta-gibbed any Cloth or Leather wearing class.
I'm a bit sad to didn't mention enhance shaman Fire Nova in Cataclysm Firelands, when it would spread flameshock, allowing them to kite all the trash in the entire raid and kill it solo with literally millions of damage per second
Saying combustion wasn't an issue in pvp in Cata is not true lol If i remember correct you could spread all your dots to all players in a certain range around your target using fire blast somehow. Fire mages could decimate entire teams if they spread their combustion targets dots.
Everybody forgets about the 1 patch of WoD Demonbolt.
