Which Builds are the New BEST DPS in GW2 PvE? - July 2025 Updated DPS Tierlist

Guild Wars 2 has a fairly balanced DPS system in PvE. However, some classes excel not only in DPS, but also in providing utility and ease of play. That's why I rate all GW2 classes based on these criteria, not just their damage output. As the June 24 Balance Patch changed a lot in terms of DPS, I also take the newest developments and builds into account in this video!

PS: Just a quick note about the highest weaver benchmark: it's now 46.6k, as well as the really complex Bladesworn (Lush Forest), which reaches an impressive 50k!
