WoW Midnight Season 2 Mythic+ Rankings: Week 5 DPS, Tanks and Healers

The fifth week of Midnight Season 2 gives us another look at how every specialization is performing in Mythic+ dungeons. According to the latest Warcraft Logs statistics, Arms Warrior and Elemental Shaman continue to lead the damage rankings, while Blood Death Knight and Holy Paladin occupy the top positions for tanks and healers.

These rankings use the top 5% of uploaded Mythic+ logs from the previous seven days. Scores are normalized against other specializations in the same role: DPS and tanks are ranked by damage, while healers are ranked by healing output.

How the Week 5 Rankings Were Calculated

Category	Method
Period	Previous seven days of Midnight Season 2
Dataset	Uploaded logs from all Season 2 dungeons and key levels
Percentile	95th percentile, representing the top 5% of recorded performances
DPS and tanks	Ranked by damage output
Healers	Ranked by healing output

Important: this is a performance ranking, not a complete Mythic+ tier list. Survivability, interrupts, crowd control, dispels, group buffs and dungeon-specific utility are not reflected directly in these numbers.

Week 5 DPS Rankings

Arms Warrior remains in first place, narrowly ahead of Elemental Shaman. Arcane Mage, Outlaw Rogue and Subtlety Rogue complete the Week 5 top five.

Complete DPS Ranking

Rank	Specialization	Rank	Specialization
1	Arms Warrior	15	Enhancement Shaman
2	Elemental Shaman	16	Balance Druid
3	Arcane Mage	17	Beast Mastery Hunter
4	Outlaw Rogue	18	Fury Warrior
5	Subtlety Rogue	19	Shadow Priest
6	Windwalker Monk	20	Marksmanship Hunter
7	Feral Druid	21	Fire Mage
8	Frost Death Knight	22	Affliction Warlock
9	Devourer Demon Hunter	23	Augmentation Evoker
10	Assassination Rogue	24	Havoc Demon Hunter
11	Retribution Paladin	25	Devastation Evoker
12	Demonology Warlock	26	Destruction Warlock
13	Survival Hunter	27	Frost Mage
14	Unholy Death Knight	—	—

Subtlety Rogue shows the most notable improvement near the top of the table, rising from eleventh place in Week 4 to fifth place in Week 5. Frost Death Knight and Survival Hunter also move higher, while Assassination Rogue falls from fourth to tenth.

Augmentation Evoker should be interpreted carefully. Part of its contribution is transferred to other party members and may not be represented fairly by a simple personal damage comparison.

Week 5 Tank Rankings

Blood Death Knight has the highest recorded tank damage by a noticeable margin. Guardian Druid takes second place, followed by Protection Paladin.

Rank	Tank Specialization
1	Blood Death Knight
2	Guardian Druid
3	Protection Paladin
4	Brewmaster Monk
5	Vengeance Demon Hunter
6	Protection Warrior

Brewmaster Monk moves ahead of Vengeance Demon Hunter this week. The difference between the middle tank specializations remains small, and this table measures damage rather than complete tank value.

A specialization placed lower here may still be highly effective because of its durability, route flexibility, interrupts, group protection or control tools.

Week 5 Healer Rankings

Holy Paladin leads the healing table, with Restoration Shaman in second place and Holy Priest in third.

Rank	Healer Specialization
1	Holy Paladin
2	Restoration Shaman
3	Holy Priest
4	Preservation Evoker
5	Mistweaver Monk
6	Restoration Druid
7	Discipline Priest

Preservation Evoker moves narrowly ahead of Mistweaver Monk in Week 5. The two specializations remain very close in normalized healing output.

Higher healing output does not automatically make a healer better for every group. Avoided damage, external defensive cooldowns, interrupts, dispels and healer damage can reduce the amount of raw healing required to complete a dungeon.
