World of Warcraft: Legion 7.1 Top DPS Chart (Return to Karazhan, Trial of Valor)

October 26, 2016







The first major update for World of Warcraft: Legion has arrived. With it have come major changes to several classes, which has completely transformed the top DPS charts. Some players are happy, others aren't.





Below you will find the latest DPS chart for the 7.1 Return to Karazhan patch. Note that Warlock has been buffed significantly, while Death Knight is in a tough spot. Also note the lines to the left and right of each bar. This is the min and max average reported by early testing. In the case of specs like the Shadow Priest this shows that it can perform extremely well, but also has a very low minimum.
