MoP Classic Best DPS Rankings
Take the DPS rankings with a grain of salt. It is based off of old original logs, modern private server logs, and simcraft results specifically during the last patch of Mist of Pandaria. Some specs will be much more successful early on like Unholy, Arms, Destruction, Frost Mages, Survival, and Elemental. On the other hand, specs like Feral, Fire, Enhance, BM, Fury, and even Affliction will struggle to come online for a bit. This also doesn't account for the DPS increase that Shamans and Warriors bring with stormlash/banner.

It was very difficult to find reliable Tank data, but we believe this is what will most accurately reflect the first phase of MoP. Guardian Druids and Protection Warriors are expected to scale very well into the late game.
