Damage dealer

A damage dealer, also called DPSer or nuker, specializes in causing severe amounts of damage, at the expense of general utility. Most pick-up groups will advertise for damage dealers when forming, as in "Group needs two healers and a damage dealer!". Necromancers and warriors are prime candidates for damage dealing. Damage dealers are usually relatively inflexible and fragile, due to the high energy cost of their skills and their lack of self-healing; thus, damage dealers usually sit in the backline of a party, so they can avoid taking damage themselves.
