    It's pretty close to how it's been for awhile.

    DRG|NIN|MNK - 1100 DPS: They are all fairly close with maybe a 20 dps difference that will largely come down to player skill.

    SMN > BLM - While both jobs break the 1k barrier pretty easily it comes down to Mechanics and BLM is more immobile than ever.

    BRD>MCH - Both classes are in a rough spot, but BRD at least retains their utility which is superior to MCH. I've seen them parse in the 900's.

    Please Note: These are dummy numbers. I've never seen a DPS break 1k sustained for an extended period of time on difficult content like BIS EX or Ravana EX

    Edit: I call BS on NIN at 1700 sustained. Show me the 3 1/2 minute parse or that's just burst.

    Are you sure Ninja is just 1700? Because when I saw the Ninja with trickshot or w/e it is called... I swear I was like 1,700 without buffs. Everytime trick was up it spiked to 1,700.

    Sure, NIN can burst for 1700 easy, but not over 3 1/2 minutes. They level off around 1100-1200 just like the other melee.

    This is about right.

    so that means without disembowel. you would be looking at 1k dps with it. doesn't sound so much behind others imo. actually sounds like brd is in the same spot as it was in 2.xx.

    and I'm curious. why would you value brd's utility higher (or even superior) btw? in the end it seems to come down to Foe's VS hyperchargded turrets debuffs and warden's paean VS dismantle/rend mind
