Overall, who do you think are the 3 strongest DPS heros?

(This is raw physical dmg, not magic spells/attacks mind you).

Anyho, give a brief description why and how (what builds/playstyles make them this way) or simply vote and tell us who is your favorite.

Feel free to drop a suggestion or whatnot, I've got a headache and can't remember em all. :(

[edit] added Lich :D

Depends, if against newbs or noobs then a good Infiltrator. Early game against competent players I would still say her. But mid/late game I think a good fenius or Swashy would be able to overtake you once people got some sight.

On the other hand, if you mean the best at enabling hero kills, then AM probably wins in that list with banish and mind fog. Would say Shammy second with earthbind and expunge.

Wait, what's the difference?

If you guys want several options enabled, say so and I can change it.

Topic says DPS, poll says PKer.

Newbs=new to the game, but can be taught.
Noobs=lost cause.

int swashy all the way, get an amulet of detection and he'll straight up rape even infiltrator with little issue if played properly

int swashy
Int Swashy?

That's got to be one of the strangest builds I've heard of.

Then you haven't heard that much, its the build Reborn and I use, and reborn is probably the best swashy out there.

My friend actually uses this build, though you have to admit it is rather unorthodox on a DPS/agil hero.

I'll have to try is sometime.

Might be a nice change from my Pilfer+Keen+crit+dmg build.

I actually have to say that Aero is a much better PK'er than one might think. Mostly because of Aiding Winds.

Come to think of it, I probably should have worded this differently, raw DPS was what I was aiming for rather than a classic P'ker. P'ker sort of molds into heros like Lazer mentioned, Aero and FM and such. I'm looking for a straight out physical dmg, namely agil-based.

I'll change stuff, reword things, make it clearer.

Considering the title for this thread is "So...?" there's certainly lots of leeway about what we can talk about. I'm glad to see most people have accepted that it's PK heroes and who's best among them, but at this point that's more of a guideline then being truthful to the thread.

I think Aero by herself with her Tempest talent is better than some of the "PK" heroes you've mentioned up here. Her and Infiltrator are one of the best hero combos in the game (sad they have no in-game combos though). So I brought them up because they're interesting to talk about.

Uh query is this sustained dps or burst dps? Because my vote would change quite a bit based on the answer :D
