Top DPS Jobs in 3.0?

[SonTensei]

Guys, I am about to get my bard to 60 and will change to another job (just finishing it out since im close and its easier/faster to level the 2nd job)

For those who have been 60 a couple days already and have had a chance to look at DPS output how do the DPS jobs lineup now?

SMN seems super strong right now. DRG is pretty well off as well, I think.
That's as much as I can judge so far.

On a dummy, it SHOULD go something like this (haven't seen parses yet of every single job though):

MNK > NIN > DRG/BLM (have seen both around 1200) > SMN > BRD > MCH

In real fights, depending on the amount of dummying you can do and disconnects, it should go roughly something like this:

NIN/SMN > DRG > MNK > BLM > BRD > MCH

I feel like DRG's more strict on having uptime on enemies than before (like BLM), but they still benefit from phase shifts and downtime to a decent extent.

Keep in mind that as a DRG you'll have an easy time to find a spot since you have a broken buff (15% crit party buff)

nin/smn > drg > mnk > BLM > Darkknight > brd=> mch

So far from a couple i180ish people reporting their numbers on dummy

NIN/DRG>MNK>SMN/BLM>WAR>MCH>WHM/BRD

[Minorinz]

according to parsers of good players:

mnk>nin/drg>smn>blm>brd>mch

each is situational though so depending on the fight and downtime

WHM reporting 900ish dps which is where the current BRD parses seem to be at.

Where the MCH is actually reporting around 980 and WAR over 1k

All 3 melee seem to be managing to pull close to each other so not entirely sure about them but the NIN's seem to be more consistent pulling high numbers for now
