It's a stupid comparison, however, so you need to check sustained dps.
 
 
 The DPS for a melee (in combat) is much higher than 19.6. If your melees are constantly fighting - i.e. you have a constant stream of mobs - their sustained dps is definitely greater than yours.
 
 A pet class will beat you too. I remember when I used to group as a necro in KC basement, before I started charming down there, even the summoned pets have DPS numbers in the mid to high 30s on mobs much stronger than they are, and that's not counting the undead nukes with super fast mana regen. I've had charmed pets doing over 100 DPS as well.
 
 
 
 Again, if you're talking about sustained dps during combat, melees or pet classes will always beat you. If the melee's auto-attack is only on for X% of the time, though, then you will beat them.
 |  Thanks for the clarification. Yeah, I didn't convert to 10ths of a second like you showed. I knew something was off. |
