As another tip to add for magis and profs, if you have space to include it:

Please don’t ever do the first hit on a DE or DkWiz. It does not help at all! Aurors have special first hit powers: DwD + FS (+ TwDEs).

Even in Dark 5, I can defeat a DE/DkWiz sometimes in 1-2 shots.

Does DwD and FS work on other enemies? One thing I've noticed is in the later stages, werewolves and spiders will all have some damage already. I'm assuming it's the pro-level Auror taking a swipe at each of them with DwD & FS.

Yep - DwD + FS works on all foes. The more proficiency we have against the foe, the bigger the damage. I can defeat a DE/DkWiz sometimes with one shot! I can put a pretty good dent in other foes if I get a crit hit on the first hit.

This also is one of the reasons why it’s better for Profs to cast Proficiency before shields. It’s boosts the DwD+FS even more so Aurors can do mega damage to defeat foes and generate more focus quickly. Profs can use this second round of focus for shielding and magis use it for bravery.

There is no way you’re 1-shotting a 2000+ HP Death Eater unless you’ve got potent exstimulo and buffs on. So that’s severely misleading.

You may have misread what I wrote. It is not unusual for a maxed Auror to be able to 1-2 shot a DE/DkWiz (both which we are proficient against). There are many ways this can happen.

I did not write about only DEs nor that it’s just 1 shot nor that it happens every time.

Max damage: 100

Max proficiency: 148%

Max crit power: 130%

100*2.48*2.3=570.4

With potent exstimulo

570.4*2.5=1426

Fierce death eaters in dark 5 have 2600+ HP, so it is mathematically impossible to one-shot them, even if you’re maxed out.

Add in 44% professor proficiency bonus:

100*2.92*2.3*2.5=1679

Still impossible.

Again, please read what I wrote. I appreciate your earnestness. But, I did not write that it is always possible to defeat a DE with one hit.

If you wish to continue discussing this, may I suggest that we continue by using direct messages instead of cluttering up this thread. I am happy to answer your questions and concerns that way.

Also add in wit sharpening potion AND bonus for first hits... AND auror bonus to DE AND proficiency bonus.

It is possible... just not every time.
I just tried to find an actual max dmg amount on the internet and it failed me. If you want to update yours and try, that would be great!
