A barraged Empyreal Arrow with all buffs up is also very nice to look at...

That's why I asked what damage dealer do you find most satisfying. Unpopularity be damned. You like it and that's good enough for me. *thumbs up*

Keep rocking that bow! *air guitar* Off topic: We really need that emote for bards.

Back on topic,

Man. A lot of folks love their black mages. *laughs*

I can't wait to hear from more players. Inquiring lalafells want to know. What damage dealing class do you find most satisfying to play?

Quelling strikes is what black mages need ;P Us bards just need competent tanks!

mh, scholar

BLM...Burn everything to the ground with utmost haste ;-)

Monk, bar none! Constantly moving back and forth, and not sitting still unlike other classes. Stance dancing (with Fists of Air/Earth/Fire as well as animal forms), decent AoE, keeping up DoTs (I use Fracture as well), and not many offensive CDs made this one a lock for my favorite DPSer. Mages are a distant 2nd, for what's it worth.

Scholar.
Joke, there're unfortunately not enough dps oriented for me :P
I like bard a lot for sure. This recent buffs made them more competitives and that Just increases the pleasure :3

*nods*I wasn't going to say mine but your post sums everything up about why monks are my favorite damage dealer. They are so much fun! I also enjoy dragoons but I always go back to monking. Is that even a word? Oh well, it is now! *laughs*

My three favorite DPS classes are Summoner, Black Mage and Bard. Ninja is ok too.

I've leveled other dps classes and even a healer and I just can't help but go back to monk. Once you learn to play the job, even though it's going really fast, you get into this really comfortable flow. It's calming honestly but at the same time you're seeing big numbers come up especially when all your buffs line up. I enjoy the basic rotation so much that I often go to hinterlands to hit the dummy to relax. If you're playing the job right then no buffs or dots ever fall off which gives it this really calm flow IMO. I typed this on my phone so I hope it makes sense lol

Monk, because I get to punch magical creatures to death.

Scholar, because crit aldo deployed off a Warrior with Fey up is just heaven.
