DPS Tier List
WoW Cleave DPS Tier List
Every DPS spec ranked by SimulationCraft on a normalized baseline for patch 12.0.5.67823. A primary target plus a cluster of adds, sustained two-to-three target cleave.It's a pure-sim ceiling, then sim your own character for what actually matters.
Your character, not the average
These are baseline specs. Sim yours in one click.
The tier list ranks identical baseline gear. Your trinkets, tier set, talents, and stat weights change the answer. Paste your /simc string and get a clear, actionable result for your character.
How this tier list is built
Each spec is simmed from SimulationCraft's bundled standard profile for patch 12.0.5.67823, the same class, talents, and item level across the board, so the only variable is the spec itself. The DPS shown is that baseline result, with no personal gear mixed in.
Single-target uses the Patchwerk fight style (one target, full uptime); cleave adds a sustained add cluster. Tiers are cut by each spec's DPS as a percentage of the top spec, so a tight sim spread stays readable. Boards refresh weekly after each SimC build bump.
A sim is a model, not the game. Use this to understand the damage landscape, then sim your own character for a real answer.
