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

[Krissey]

You realize you don't have to tank twin right next to the add right?

The Boss is over there, the adds are over here....the melee has to run from one to the other then back again....

How do you not see this?

EDIT: Bard have an advantage because unless an AOE field is so large it pushes the bard out of range, or it's an invulnerability state, they can have 100% uptime DPS without fail, but the melee and ranged will have to stop DPSing, stop what they are doing and leave the area bringing their DPS down to 0 during that time.
