name a few builds which are capable of dealing 200k DPS around lvl 88-90 without wealth gated gear and using self cast spell or melee skill?

There are enough build that could do that, I won't be naming them all, too long of a list.
But why do you need to do 200k dps?
There are enough builds that are budget and can clear the entire game.
There's a video of a SRS build that did Atziri with 4L white items in the beta on reddit.

Go figure, if you haven't played beta you can't say anything about how the current state of the game is.
PoE 2.0 is a completely different game.

Basically with 2.0 all the damage dealer builds got hardnerfed. builds like crit dps based flicker strike are not viable anymore without leech even in 300ex gear it will fail against bosses like palace 78 or uber atziri. without wealthy gear it will already fail on dominus.

Okay you say i talk about melee only. let's talk casters.
Caster defenses got destroyed aswell with mom eb gone. casters will have to apply points into block or whatever to gain survivability for endgame, this of course means a LOT less DPS. essentially it means like 1/5 of DPS compared to old EB mom builds because of the number of passives sacrificed for defences.

Why is GGG doing this? They want every character to be Coc? Since i decided to come back to poe i've talked to 3-4 of my mates and ALL are making Coc based characters!!! ALL of THEM!!!! And honestly i can understand them. noone wants a map clearing to take more than 5 mins, noone wants to play with 20k dps.

So GGG wanted to force people on build diversity, now they will get it! instead of tons of fun and viable DPS builds now we'll have ONE. COC.
