Ok so he out DPS'd a mnk at 50. Back in 2.0 gear Monks and Drgs were doing around 600+ dps if I'm not mistaken. Currently, MCHs at 60 are recording 800-900 for their DPS. Mnks and Drgs are currently recording 1200-1400 dps consistently, at the same item level, in dungeons. If your level 50 MCH out dps's MNKs at 60, please report back here.

Your friend did this buffed. So basically, for us to do damage, we have to have a pocket AST to buff us at all times, babysit us with their cards regardless of the other dps in the party. Still, even in the best of circumstances, that's pretty unrealistic for MCH's to sustain considering other DPSers can pull much higher numbers without mentioning the need of an AST.

Whenever you get a chance, it'd be great to ask your friend's rotation so players can test it out.
