How is SMN overall dps?

[Sunako]

I assume this test was vs multiple dummies?
Doing more dps with Aoe skills + No dmg skills (Contagion/Radiant Shield) and Knockback/Stun seems not correct if not 2+ dummies.

The reason why those skills are doing more damage because they are off globals(or smaller delay compared normal). For garuda it will burn little from the global but still not have that much delay as wind blade so those abilities are dps increase.

if you compare how many burning strikes there is with only one ability 197 uses and how many uses there is with with aoe + stun ability 185 + 19 + 15 = 219 ability uses total

Hm alright, havent noticed that before, heh. Mostly used garuda on Obey because lolcontagion on 0 dot target on sic, but it seems like ifrit is way better (even more so when Mnk+War in pt, buffs both autoattack+burning strike vs Foe not up 100%).
