We were 100-150 dps behind other DPS if everyone was playing correctly. If everyone had their dps increased due to level and item lvl increase I think 900 is still the same as before. The damage ratio remained the same while the raw DPS increased.

The real problem thought from my point of view is that we shouldn't be parsing lower than blackmages or at least not 10% less. It might not be the same in other MMO but who cares its FFXIV. If you're cutting us off our feet at least make it so we can get the same DPS as the others.
