SMN to BLM

[Dwill]

I would personally like something....anything done in a patch that might help make it a bit easier for a BLM to catch up with over all DPS in end game though.

Black Mages are fine with damage right now.

Lol. I have been enjoying my run as BLM so what I said above isn't an immediate need, to be clear. However, I am still running into debates on the damage issue. I am also having issue getting into some parties because the general opinion of said party is that BLM DPS is "bad". Perhaps this is just a carry over from before the fix. I play on ps4, so I don't have means to parse my DPS. I have tried asking around for a PC player to, but no such luck yet. I feel as if I do decent damage in fights that I have been in, including my (FINALLY) first attempt at T5, but I guess I am just remaining skeptical because of the occasional turn aways I have gotten because of my Job. Perhaps with time that will die down. At any rate, my opinion on OP's topic here is, play what makes the game fun for you.

And plenty of people in-game think that Summoner do terrible damage and that Bards top the meters. What the general in-game populace think about the damage that each job outputs is irrelevant when there are factual numbers that contradicts their opinion.

If you're a good Black Mage, your damage is perfectly fine.
