Ok, here we go...

I selected Sullon Zek parses because they are all out burn fights for us. This is each class's opportunity to lay it all out and go for broke.

Links to parse summaries are at the top for reference.

Rangers are highlighted in blue and warriors in red. I've called out the rank of the top ranger and warrior for each of the 9 parses. I don't have group makeup information. I could call out the dkp rank of each war/rng but I'm not sure how useful that would be. Think that is the best I can do with the information I have.

Damn it I wish I had raid dumps for those.

The relative rankings from a recent Anguish run:

Tanthi the tormentor:

Rog, Rang, Rog, Rang, Monk, War, War (me), Rang, Wiz, BL, Rang, Rang, Pal, War, War, Nex, War, Bard

AM:

Wiz, Nec, War, Rog, Monk, War (me), War, Rog, Rang, War, Rog, War, Bard, Pal, Rang, Druid, SK, SK, Enc, Enc, Enc, SK, War

Harrier:

Wiz, Nec, Rog, Rog, Monk, War (me), Rang, Rang, War, War, SK, War, Rang, BL, Druid, War, Enc, War, SK, Enc, Druid

Tantho the tormentor:

Nec, Rang, Rang, War, Rog, Monk, Rog, Rang, Wiz, BL, BL, SK, War, Rang, War (me), Rang, SK, War, Bard, Enc, War, SK, Enc. [no discs for me on this one]

I left off the rankings for Ture because people are moving around too much for that fight to be parsed, and Hanvar, since there are periods where he doesnt take damage, during which people may or may not be meleeing/casting on him.

Now, we are in one of our cyclical rebuilding phases, so we have a wide range of gear maturity on people, but most of our rangers and two of our warriors are fully geared in (for us) current content. Those are fairly typical outcomes for parsing. Maturely geared wizards, rogues, bezerkers and monks allways top them though. Rangers on the other hand usually bunch with warriors and BLs.

All things being equal, they wouldnt, but our rogues are all new boys (or girls), so their weapons/AA are not on nearly as good as those someone at current content would have. Like I said, a maturely geared rogue at current content allways beats warriors. When they reach the same level of maturity as our top warriors they will win out every time. Mature monks and bezerkers will allways win too. The same cannot be said for rangers however. Sometimes they will win out, other times they wont. Why that is the case I couldnt say, perhaps it might be related to differentials on resist rates, perhaps uncertainty on hate generation. All I know is that it IS the case.
