    However, unlike the Bard, turrets do not lower your DPS while sent out, but while in Promotion, they will not commit any autoattacks.
    I get what you're saying, but I think it's more appropriate to say it lowers DPS, since DPS is a function of you and the turret, a la SMN.

    The point of Promotion is to ensure your party can keep fighting and dishing out DPS. Yes you are a DPS class and yes you need to be doing sufficient damage but if you're out of TP or MP or any of your group are then you're losing a lot more DPS by waiting for regen.

    Yes but you are still "losing dps" much like a bard, just not directly on your character.
