Your BIS slot list isn't actually BIS.

This is as far as I can tell: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/OTEF

Gives up some VIT for 2-3 stats worth of DEX depending on your stat weights. Not sure where your stat weights came from (or the MNK ones, would love a source for why that's been updated) but NIN and MNK most certainly do not have the same stat weights. NIN benefits from crit far more than either melee dps - they attack faster than DRG and have significantly less auto-crits than MNK.

Opener is missing X-Pot and applies Mutilate before it gets buffed by Trick attack. Try:

Huton (pre-pull, 10s) > BfB > SE > IR > GS > X-Pot > DE > Suiton > SE > Trick Attack > SF > Kassatsu > Mutilate > Raiton > SE > Mug > GS > Jugulate > AE
