Let me see if I can scrape up the logs, but it is well known in the guild that I out dps all of our assassians 7/10 times. With that said, if the mob is pierce immune or resistant, expect much lower dps output. Many of our attacks are pierce based so the inevitable drop occurs.
As for the backstab...they get one huge backstab, but we get storm of arrows, culling the herd, triple fire....you see my point. Those attacks can put out 3k+ damage together, and are on shorter reuse timers. It slowly evens out in the end.
Try not to worry too much about how much DPS your throwing at mobs right now. The game is in its infant stages and classes are far from reaching the goals of either players or developers. Just sit back, shoot some arrows, kill some mobs, and have fun in my opinion. :smileyhappy:
