I wanted to read this thread for some fun but you managed to oh so slightly bother me with your remarks right at the beginning of it, especially coming from a BRD with only a lvl 15PGL
I'm not going to talk about how obvious it should be that MNK gets slightly higher dps, but please how about you go at least watch the MNK Job quests because if that is indeed your way of seeing MNK you might need some good learning on the Job.

But if you are too lazy to do that I will simply copy/paste the definition of the MNK Job here.

"Though now under Garlean rule, the city-state of Ala Mhigo once boasted the greatest military might of all Eorzea. Among its standing armies were the monks—ascetic warriors as dreaded by foes on the field of battle as the city-state's great pikemen.
The monks comprised an order known as the Fist of Rhalgr, and it was to this god—the Destroyer—that they devoted their lives of worship. By mastering seats of power within the body known as chakra, they are capable of performing extraordinary physical feats.
"


TLDR MNKs aren't just random peeps punching stuff. Educate yourself before coming to bash something on the OF.

Please do excuse this small digression from the thread idea but i got mad ∩( ・ω・)∩ Have a good day.
