Dragonflight Season 2 Week 23: Top DPS Specs on Mythic Aberrus
This snapshot covers the week of October 10th, 2023, using Warcraft Logs Mythic-difficulty parse data for Aberrus the Shadowed Crucible. Rankings reflect the 95th-percentile bracket, which shows peak performance per spec rather than median output. Specs with populations below roughly 500 players are sampled from a small self-selected group and carry higher variance; Augmentation Evoker numbers in particular reflect partial parse funneling, since its support buffs convert into other players' logged damage.
| Position | Spec and Class | Population Size | Change from Week 22 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Augmentation Evoker | 11,293 | +12 |
| 2 | Unholy Death Knight | 6,697 | -13 |
| 3 | Demonology Warlock | 377 | -13 |
| 4 | Frost Mage | 5,087 | +5 |
| 5 | Frost Death Knight | 10,340 | +6 |
| 6 | Devastation Evoker | 3,109 | +17 |
The full dataset for all specs and percentile brackets was available on the Warcraft Logs Season 2 statistics page for Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible on Mythic difficulty.
Overall Statistics for Week 23
The rankings shifted slightly when looking at all percentile brackets together rather than the 95th percentile alone. Augmentation Evoker held first across both views, but the order below it differed between the two cuts.
Overall Damage
- Augmentation Evoker
- Unholy Death Knight
- Demonology Warlock
- Frost Mage
- Frost Death Knight
Damage to Bosses
- Augmentation Evoker
- Unholy Death Knight
- Frost Mage
- Devastation Evoker
- Enhancement Shaman
Enhancement Shaman moved into the top five on boss damage despite not appearing in the overall damage top five, reflecting its strong single-target output on the Aberrus bosses that week compared to its weaker AoE contribution.
What This Meant for Dragonflight Season 2
Week 23 fell in the latter portion of Dragonflight Season 2. By this point Augmentation Evoker had established a dominant position that persisted through the end of the season; its presence at the top of nearly every Mythic parse tier from its introduction onward made it the most significant balance story of the season.
Unholy Death Knight's position at second reflected the spec's consistent priority target damage that suited Aberrus's encounter design. Demonology Warlock's small population at rank three (377 players versus the leading specs' populations of 6,000 to 11,000) underlines the high-variance nature of low-population 95th-percentile data: a small group of specialists can push a spec's ceiling far above what the broader population achieves.
