Dropping from the sky isn't appealing enough?
Sure dropping from the sky is cool and all, but Monks having higher DPS (unless the boss is absolute hell for them), and being able to support your group as a whole, makes DRGs seem inferior.
Also, I meant "appealing" as in an addition to a raid team, sure DRGs can have Mantra too, but it's 5% vs. 20%, which seems like a significant difference to me.
If one had to choose between taking equally skilled/geared DRG or Monk, they would be likely to choose a Monk unless there's a Bard or two, as they can potentially deal more damage, and if the fight is not very favourable for Monks which prevents them from reaching their max DPS, they still have 20% Mantra, and 10% INT debuff, which seems quite useful to me, seeing a lot of bosses tend to use magic based attacks, especially for AoE.
So: Monks: Potentially higher DPS, skills to aid the whole group. DRGs: Somewhat better burst, but lower overall DPS, single skill to aid a Bard with just a 10% damage buff.
To me the gap between seems too big.
