Aion Riftshade

Hello guys, 

we would link to introduce our new “PvE Awakened” project, where you can participate against other players in DPS Rankings to make PvE more fun and competitive.

We use Aion Rainmeter (ARM) files to evaluate Logs from KATA/IS and calculate the players “real DPS”, means we take the overall DMG and divide it by the seconds you need to Kill Hyperion. Based on this information, we create Top 10 class Based Ranking system. Later we will also set up a Top 20 Ranking for each class specific, but we have not collected enough files for that.

For now (Nov. 1^st 2022) the Ranking looks like this:

We will keep you updated on the forum once per Week and have a Live Ranking in our Discord, where you can permanently check, if there are any changes.

If you would like to join this project, we would be glad, if you check out our Discord Server, pick your main class and send us your future KATA/IS files. 😁

For the exact way how to upload files you can check the “#general Information” and the “#how to start” channel on the Discord Server.

 

We hope to make PvE great “again” 😉

there is a problems with real DPS, as listed:

 

it discriminates chanters , spiritmasters and bards (even gladiators) and all other classes that contribute to raid DPS by applying debuffs. The thing you need to count is personal DPS /raid DPS. Only with that combo info you could create pve tier list. Or you could create separate tier list for utility of classes, weight them and then do geometric mean including personal DPS AND utility

 

You also need to create high/low DPS to accomodate skil cap of particular player and then evaluate class on average perfomance. You need several hundreds entries to each class to reliably measure and compare classes. top 10 in not good indicator of class prowess. It only promotes selfish bevaviours and endangers party to wipe and make clerics life harder

 

How you objectively measure DPS between classes when sorceres have burst windows and when boss wont die exacly after one, sorc will be lower on chart? Same problem with SM's DoT, if boss dies just after applying new round of DoT's Dps will be lost

 

How you would rate a nicely used panalopy of protection/bodyguard/ Elemental Screen/ and other DMG party wide/ target reduction skills on the DPS class who would die in next second if not saved?. All would be lost DPS  in revive time window IMO should be taken away from personal DPS and put into another collumn to credit support classes. AION 4.6 not rly dont have tank busters/DPS busters but still
 

Diffrent party compositions have diffrent levels of synergy between classes

 

Synergy beween players (coordination with using debuffs and long CD dps skills) have impact on final DPS

 

Putting support and hybrid classes next to sorces and assasins (pure DPS) and calling it DPS class tier list is not fair

 

Anyway good work putting together that sheet anyway

hello,

since this is a DPS Ranking and as we all know, DPS means Damage per Second, thats why i dont see any reason of splitting up classes in hybrid speccs or seperate classes who use buffs etc. Ofc the statistic is more interesting for DPS specs compared to Supporters, but its the only useful factor you can evaluate.

In the discord link, I posted above you can also see a top 20 ranking for each class, so its not just the infos you get here in the forum.

Hi guys, 

we would like give you an update to our PvE - Ranking Project. Over the last 1,5 years we evaluated more than 1.000 runs on Euro Aion and can show you an updated version of the 3 Main PvE Instances below.

 

KATA/IS: (DPS is calculated as follows: first to last hit of Hyperion)

 

RST/IO: (DPS is calculated as follows: first to last hit of Test Weapon Dynatoum ; Mines do not count as DPS)

 

DR/Runa NM: (DPS is calculated as follows: first to last hit of Grendal)

We also added a seaonal ranking to each instance with a seperated monthy reset to all instances. The overall ranking remains in place.

 

We would be glad, if we could motivate some more people to do PvE more passionate and try to climb the ranking list.

 

As mensioned above we use Aion Rainmeter (ARM) files to evaluate Logs from the listed instances and calculate the players “real DPS”, means we take the overall DMG and divide it by the seconds you need to kill the bosses. Based on this information, we create Top class based Ranking systems.

 

We will try to deliver you a monthly update on the Forum from now on, also we have a Live Ranking in our Discord and Website, where you can permanently check, if there are any changes.

If you would like to join this project, we would be glad, if you check out our Discord Server, pick your main class and send us your files!
