Is bard dps the weakest?

[Powercow]

i know DMG parser its still weak but usually BRD are in the TOP of dmg list unless someone LB.

Yeah the parser sucks. It records DPS all over the place.

See, I can't seem to see them doing high damage compared to summoners, black mages or monks. Black mages and summoners have about way more weapon damage which translate to their potency being twice as better which then results them in doing 500 hits or DoTs ticking for 200-300. It's insane. So I'm wondering, how can bards compete if they hit for 200 on heavy shots and blood letters and those take 2.5 sec GCD (other than blood letter of course) but 200 for every 2.5 sec isn't really...strong. It's half of a black mages hit and equal to one DoT tick.

Bards have many skills that aren't attached to the GCD not just Bloodletter

Well...only if you used an early version of it maybe...but you can reset the DPS log before starting the boss.
