The first week of World of Warcraft Dragonflight season two is over and we can finally take a breather from hardcore Mythic+ and raid grinding and open our Great Vaults in peace. While you’re still opening your Great Vault and simming the new items, we’ll take a look at the first Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible, and see why one surprising spec is topping the charts.
According to the first logs from Aberrus on May 17, Arcane Mages are sitting on the top DPS throne with most other DPS specs falling far behind. While Arcane Mages are effortlessly mopping the floor with Beast Mastery Hunters and Havoc Demon Hunters, Subtlety Rogues and Destruction Warlocks are doing their best to match the overall 95th Percentile Arcane Mage DPS.
