Maplestory Tips for Damage

 Individually, Dragon Knights( MapleStory Mesos)68 with Crusher hit the highest average damage per hit on a single target. However, because Crusher is a very slow attack, this results in less total damage over time. Dragon Knights also learn a few other new attacks, the other single-target one being Sacrifice. When maxed, their attacks deal approximately the following damage to a single target:

Crusher - 170% per hit, 3 hits on the same target (approximately 510% total)
Fury - 250%.
Sacrifice - 350%, regardless of the monster's wep def.
Damage on mobs.
Dragon Knights' attacks shine more against mobs than they do against single targets, knockback is still an issue, but their raw damage on most mob sizes is the highest of the warrior classes in game(Maplestory powerleveling). Their mob attacks, when maxed out, are the following:

Crusher - 1530% Total on 3 enemies; 510% per enemy.
Fury - 1500% on Total 6 enemies; 250% per enemy.
Dragon Roar - 240% on up to 15 enemies; 3600% in total.

Roar is rarely used because of its casting time and the fact that you become stunned for 2 seconds after using it, however, it's there. Three having two main attacks that are both mob attacks, due to range and damage of Fury, the most damage to mobs of 5 and 6 monsters overtime. Though Crusaders outdamage DKs on mobs of 5-6 monsters of  Maplestory, due to range, DKs have a tendency to do better because they can hit more monsters easier. They are also superior in mobs of 2-3 with Crusher.
