Rejoice ninjas!

Mnk dmg has been proven to be higher than Nin's, time and time again..
However Drg does need that buff, it's lowest of the 3 melee's and brings the least to the table in terms of utility.

If you was where I was when I saw a nin doing his opening rotation, you would have seen that 1600 crit that I saw. And my true strikes barely reach 1k.

If how high a player could hit in 1 shot determined overall DPS, Everyone would play Black Mage.

I've hit near 1200 with pot/Blood for blood with true strike. Heavy positioning can drop DPS by a chunk on MNK also, like on turn 12 where party stacks and stays on the flank for quite a bit of the fight. In some fights NIN will push ahead. Also I've seen DRG crit for over 2k ^_^

If SE dont want to buff DRGs output they should increase their utility to balance. Not to mention their lower magic damage mitigation and FCoB. If they also want to keep a difference in physical and magic mitigation then give them stance similar to Clerics whereas instead of swapping MND/int figures, swapping phys and magic figures around. So say DRG has 700 phys resist, 400 magic, activate stance and they have 400 phys resists, 700 magic.
