    I haven't looked at any spreadsheets and I don't really know how top players perform, but I have to say that I've barely seen 2 or 3 BLUs actually deal real damage, the rest were lower than any other DD who actually worked on their gear, obviously sparks DD doesn't work. You never see a BLU for example WSing for 70k damage, or making huge Skillchains, yea they spam that CdC button, but that CdC is not so big damage. Obviously a BLU with Almace can do great amounts of damage, but in the same way another DD with empy weapons or mythic weapons can do good amounts of damage.

    But IMO BLUs are usually chosen not because of their damage, which is commonly low, but because of their survivality. My Dancer for example is usually dead after the first or second WS in high level content like Omen because tanks have no way to get hate back.

    That's why thief is the best DD because trick attack exists!
    just like how ninja is the best DD in ff14
    (not really, just enmity being an issue can screw things over sometimes)

    lol.

    When's the last time you actually played 14? Because last I checked, NIN was just a small slice under RDM and about equal to SAM. Depending on fight, of course.

    But what is with your obsession with "BEST DPS EVAR!!!" when the delta between them is what, 10% at best?

    Current content patch, it's mandatory and you don't raid without a NIN because smoke screen + trick attack + shadewalker. Makes your tanks not have to press enmity combo and ups your raid DPS a lot.

    That's only a band-aid to the player impatience problem because they are trying to clear said raids with lower than designed equipment levels. The raids are designed to be done with full i330 which is not available yet due to the 450/wk cap on Creation Tomestones.

    They do this for tryhards that want world firsts. *shrugs* I don't really care about that, as that's such a niche area of the game. Everywhere else where that is not needed, RDM puts out more damage.

    Not allways they can stand in front of the mob for as long as the Rudra's Storm or Mandalic Stab animation locks them for.

    Would really like for a forum moderator to exist and clean up this thread. It's not ok to be personally attacked and insulted on a forum.

    So.... you take a hostile, aggressive tone towards someone for daring to play a "bad" job such as BLU and do your best to talk down to them to try to tell them that their choice sucks because it ain't the best of the best, you shovel elitism and job discrimination in a very not-nice manner, and then you come running to the moderators to "clean up" the thread that you, yourself derailed?

    Nice.

    Not only that, but in the other forum (Items and Crafting) you basically tell a 12+ year old veteran that he doesn't know what he's talking about when it comes to fishing Moat Carp, something myself and a family member has done for not one, not two, but THREE Lu Shang's Fishing Rods and then proceed to blame my problem on something entirely unrelated (no, sugar, Knightwell is NOT the only place you can/should fish Moat Carp, and you're going to get about the same bite rate no matter where you go; it depends on how many other catches are possible and Knightwell is only marginally better than in-town fishing, and I'd even wager it isn't even that because you are adding Monsters to the list of possible fish).

    Either way, you took a hostile belligerent tone with me in that thread too, talking down to me like I didn't know anything.
