The most broken spec of any MMO

[Multibocks]

In your opinion what was the most broken OP class you have ever played or heard of? I'm asking because some guy is claiming Rifts pyro is the clear choice and I don't agree. I remember some times in WoW with some ridiculous stuff but I'm having trouble recalling. I believe there was a class in Conan (or War?) that oneshot people with no charge up.

Anyways Pyros can currently one shot people IF they have 100 energy and have a certain buff, but they must recharge energy to do it again, which takes time. They are being nerfed so it's moot, but Im curious what has been the most OP.

Our fire mage yesterday who did 6,5milion damage over the course of 11 seconds, leading to the epic vent conversation:

- raid leader: "start cleaving"
... 11 seconds later mage needs to iceblock and dies afterwards
- raid leader: 'watch your fucking threat, don't you have omen?'
- fire mage: 'yeah but this was just a cooldown'

How did he do that much damage? Also I'm more interested in PvP occurrences, no offense.

Ya wise of me to cancel a bunch of my Shaman accounts and make 22 (well less now) fire mages:

The Confessor in Shadowbane was op with super nukes, healing, endless mana and could fly.
The Og mage in Asheron's call was pretty op when leveled.
I still think nothing comes close to the survivability of the prot paladin in wow.

Was on halfus 25m hc. There are 4 dragons up + 8 whelps that count as 1 dragon too. Per drake that you kill, you get a 100% dmg increase on the boss. The damage increase does not count on the drakes. However some classes can cleave off the boss, so the damage that goes onto the adds is actually influenced by the multiplier. I guess his combustion went like that.

The orange line is supposed to indicate raid dps. But apparently it screws over world of logs ...



And yeah I know you actually meant pvp, but still thought it was a fun thing to mention in regards to OP.

DAoC Alb infiltrator, hands down.

Followed by Classic WoW enhancement shaman + arcanite reaper.

When Conan first released, the ranger class was super op at low levels.
