The argument"MCH/Bard have utility so their damage should be lower"

[Sevyn]

The argument that we are ranged so we should do less is silly. Summoner and black Mage are ranged as well. And every job brings support/utility of some kind. We shouldn't be number 1 but we should be closer to the other dps jobs as well. When we do use our "support skills tp/mp" it already lowers our damage so your argument is moot.

Like i stated again, BRD/MCH can attack on the move, which separates them from caster ranged DPS. it makes perfect sense to me, you dont lose DPS because you dont require a casting bar for every attack, think about it.

I don't think you get it. The lvl52 skill brd/mch get is stationary. You can't move while using attacks, no auto-attack and on top of that it has a cast time. But here it comes. It gives you a extra 20% damage, which still gives us lower dps than a OT. Though, I have to say you chose a great way to make a idiot out of yourself. You didn't even research anything while making those posts of yours.
