Having better gear does not equal good at a job

Oh my bad, I didn't realise you had to have full Dreadwyrm gear and weapon to be certified 'good' at your Job...

It's clear you didn't understand what he meant.

Dreadwyrm gear goes not mean you're good at playing your class. I've come across multiple DRGs in Dreadwyrm who I've out-DPS'd with my worse gear compared to them. Also a NIN too. Hell, I've yet to come across somebody who has out DPS'd me (doesn't mean I'm the best, I've just come across badp layers) and a lot of them have had Dreadwyrm gear.

Î dont want to open an new thread for my question, because i think its a good place here, its a problem between monk and ninja for me -.-

My Boyfriends mainclass before 2.4 was monk and since 2.4 he switched to ninja and he dont want to play another class, he love his ninja (only samurai will add to the game lol).
I dont play Ninja because its the class from him and in my opinion two same classes are meh...
Now i´ve stared to play ninja, actually level 39 and i love it, i played monk since a month and its fun too but i like the mechanic and style from ninja more.
What would you guys do, if your friend/boyfriend/girlfriend play the same class as you want to do?
Becuase i think in Raids it would be bad with two ninjas and its better if i play my monk and he his ninja :(

Sorry for my bad english, its not my motherlanguage.

2 Ninjas would actually work pretty well, you'd just have to adjust your rotations so your group benifits from Trick Attack 2/6 of the fight, having 2 goads is also a plus, ninjas come very close to monk DPS too.
The only drawback is, you'd miss out on Dragon Kick which is the best source of damage mitigation a melee can bring for Final Coil.

Not entirely sure if it would work, but you could even try 2xnin 1x Mnk 1x brd, could be a bit problematic in T10 with Heat Lightning because of 3 melee and a OT around the boss. And in T11 there might come problems with the sphere and cube cause of no casters, but that way you could have 2ninjas and still have DK which is quite useful, if those two and possibly other struggles can be overcome. (no further experience in FCoB so don't know if there's other good reasons to only have 2meles)

HA Ving more than 2 melee in your party is annoying, and personally I recommend against it. It is doable, but really annoying for all the melee players involved since it feels cramped around the boss with 2 tanks and 3 mdps.
