<\/figure>\n

Castle Nathria is the only raid available in\u00a0World of Warcraft\u00a0<\/em>Shadowlands<\/em><\/a> before update 9.1, when the raid The Sanctum of Domination will be added. While many guilds had trouble with Sire Denathrius at first, he has now been downed many times\u00a0at\u00a0Mythic difficulty.<\/p>\n

RELATED:\u00a0Shadowlands: All Tanking Specs, Ranked<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Going into the next patch, knowing which class specializations are topping damage meters will be key in clearing the Sanctum of Domination efficiently. If you’re a Raid leader, don’t waste time recruiting specs that will only slow down the group’s progression \u2013 instead, look back to Castle Nathria to easily determine\u00a0which<\/a> classes will be most useful. As a DPS, it’s important to consider re-speccing if your chosen class specialization is\u00a0at the bottom of Castle Nathria rankings.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Below C: Survival\/Beast Master Hunter, Destruction\/Demonology Warlock, Assassination Rogue<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

These class specializations have few useful group utilities<\/a> and provide meager damage compared to other specs. These are specs that are useful in some situations, but not in Mythic raiding.<\/p>\n

Survival Hunter:\u00a0<\/strong>This spec has always been low on the damage charts, and\u00a0Shadowlands<\/em> did little to change this. Fun for leveling, not great for the end-game.<\/p>\n

Beast Master Hunter:\u00a0<\/strong>Beast Masters might have been supreme in Mythic Ny’alotha, but now are mainly single-target damage dealers.<\/p>\n

Destruction Warlock:\u00a0<\/strong>Great\u00a0AOE damage, but that rarely comes into play in Castle Nathria\u2013 this class spec’s single-target output is lacking.<\/p>\n

Demonology Warlock:\u00a0<\/strong>High survivability in the use of Soul Link, but overall average damage across the board. It’s worth re-speccing as Affliction just for Castle Nathria.<\/p>\n

Assassination Rogue:\u00a0<\/strong>While this class has decent single-target damage, it’s just not as good as an Outlaw Rogue or a Subtlety Rogue using the same upgrades.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>C Tier: Subtlety Rogue, Feral Druid, Frost Death Knight<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

These class specializations get a passing grade<\/a> in Castle Nathria but don’t provide enough to the group to warrant a higher ranking.<\/p>\n

Subtlety Rogue:\u00a0<\/strong>Subtlety rogues offer great durability and single-target damage output at the cost of being in melee range. Not bad, but several nerfs have left the spec wanting.<\/p>\n

Feral Druid:\u00a0<\/strong>This spec has suffered for a short while, but is not bad at single-target damage. It has AOE with the finisher Primal Wrath, but does not get to use it much in Castle Nathria.<\/p>\n

Frost Death Knight:\u00a0<\/strong>While this spec does decent single-target damage and has utility with Death Grip, it’s mostly used for the Anti-Magic Zone talent.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>C+ Tier: Retribution Paladin,\u00a0Arcane Mage,\u00a0Enhancement Shaman<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Class specializations in the C+ tier have about the same output as those in the C tier but provide either slightly higher DPS<\/a> or some form of group utility.<\/p>\n

RELATED:\u00a0Shadowlands: All Healing Specs, Ranked<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Retribution Paladin:\u00a0<\/strong>This spec just about matches the output of other C tier specs, but offers some of the best burst DPS and executioner abilities out there.<\/p>\n

Arcane Mage:\u00a0<\/strong>Arcane Mages suffered some nerfs soon after the release of\u00a0Shadowlands<\/em>, but nonetheless provide good damage on small parties of enemies.<\/p>\n

Enhancement Shaman:\u00a0<\/strong>Enhancement Shamans are an overall good melee spec who provides Windfury Totem to the raid, which increases DPS for melee fighters.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>B Tier: Frost Mage, Elemental Shaman, Havoc Demon Hunter<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The B tier is the first tier where the rankings become a little bit less clear.\u00a0The class specializations in B tier all work well for Mythic Castle Nathria, but are slightly outclassed<\/a> in terms of damage output by higher tier specs.<\/p>\n

Frost Mage:\u00a0<\/strong>This spec really shines in situations with 3-5 enemies. Their single-target damage is underwhelming, though, and they become more useful in larger fights.<\/p>\n

Elemental Shaman:\u00a0<\/strong>Elemental Shamans are one of the best AOE specs,\u00a0with the use of Chain Lightning and Maelstrom. Their single-target damage, though, is only OK.<\/p>\n

Havoc Demon Hunter:\u00a0<\/strong>Demon Hunters provide a 5% magical damage reduction to the whole party (!) and are effective against a few enemies at a time. Their long cooldowns hinder them, though.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>B+ Tier: Arms\/Fury Warrior, Outlaw Rogue<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Once again, the B+ tier class specializations, like the C+ tier, offer similar output to those in the B tier but have additional functions<\/a> within a Raid group.<\/p>\n

Arms Warrior:\u00a0<\/strong>Arms Warriors are excellent at single to two-target encounters, due to their Sweeping Strikes, and bring multiple cooldowns that aid the group.<\/p>\n

Fury Warrior:\u00a0<\/strong>Like Arms Warriors, Rallying Cry and Battle Shout are great Raid-wide buffs, but only top charts with small encounters and execution abilities.<\/p>\n

Outlaw Rogue:\u00a0<\/strong>A bit of a surprise to some, Outlaw Rogues can provide massive damage to multiple enemies with Blade Flurry, but lack single-target sustained damage.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>A Tier: Unholy Death Knight,\u00a0Marksmanship Hunter<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The A tier is class specializations that provide significant damage output\u00a0over classes in lower tiers. The A tier classes have few downsides, save for complexity or specific group bonuses. These are classes every raid group should have a few of<\/a>, just to minimize time spent on bosses.<\/p>\n

RELATED:\u00a0World Of WarCraft: 10 Hardest Raid Bosses Of All Time, Ranked By Attempts<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Unholy Death Knight:\u00a0<\/strong>Unholy Death Knights have perhaps the best single-target melee damage in Castle Nathria, great AoE, and also bring the Anti-Magic Zone talent to the raid.<\/p>\n

Marksmanship Hunter:\u00a0<\/strong>Marksmanship Hunters deal ridiculous damage bursts and have fantastic AoE, albeit on cooldown.\u00a0They’re the best Hunter spec bar none for the end-game.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>A+ Tier: Shadow Priest, Windwalker Monk<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The A+ tier is those classes that are incredibly useful to have in a raid group for both their massive damage output and their very useful\u00a0abilities in the Mythic setting. These class specializations are sought-after for their output in Mythic raiding.<\/p>\n

Shadow Priest:\u00a0<\/strong>Shadow Priests are incredible damage-over-time DPS with multiple uses in a group. Power Infusion can buff an ally’s\u00a0output massively, and Power Word: Fortitude is\u00a0a nice raid-wide buffer for some bosses.<\/p>\n

Windwalker Monk:\u00a0<\/strong>Windwalker Monks deal the most single-target and AoE damage of any melee fighter in\u00a0Shadowlands<\/em>. They are great all around, but their mobility lets them get back to fighting when it’s time to get out of range.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>S Tier: Balance Druid, Affliction Warlock, Fire Mage<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The S tier is the class specializations that have few (if any) downsides and simply outperform every other specialization. While it’s not a wise idea to stack lots of the same<\/a> class specialization in a Raid group,\u00a0the sheer power of these classes makes them\u00a0necessary for any successful Castle Nathria attempt.<\/p>\n

Balance Druid:\u00a0<\/strong>Balance Druids are the unmatched ranged DPS in Castle Nathria. Their ability to set multiple damage-over-time effects at once, their burst damage, and their covenant abilities put them high above any other spec available right now.<\/p>\n

Affliction Warlock:\u00a0<\/strong>Affliction Warlocks are the kings of damage-over-time, and are effective in both single-target encounters and group encounters. The fact that their damage-over-time spells are instant puts it above Shadow Priest, who must stand still while casting most spells.<\/p>\n

Fire Mage:\u00a0<\/strong>Fire Mages are the best Mage Spec for all-around damage output, and are amazing in both single-target and burst AoE situations. Frost Mages\u00a0eke it out in small encounters, but Fire Mages are the go-to choice for several bosses in Castle Nathria.<\/p>\n
