If you NINs are gonna keep making threads about how you need a buff, please don't use MNK as a referencing point as to why you need that buff...

It's not like MNKs are being picked ahead of NINs or anything. If you use a DRK, which seems to be a good choice for A1 and A3 at least, then MNK becomes weak compared to NIN and DRG... Mantra alone doesn't make up for the utility and raid DPS than NIN gives you, and DRG just blows them out of the water with their DPS, as well as Litany...

Do you guys even consider Trick Attack? It might not seem like a huge increase overall for your group, and it isn't huge, but it makes them do more party DPS than MNK. You can't just be egotistic and only care about the DPS you get, because if you increase the overall DPS of the group, you're effectively doing more DPS than the parse is saying (I count that raid bonus as NIN's own DPS)

I'm not saying Tick Attack and the other utility makes up for the massive amount of DPS DRG can get (they give raid DPS in form of BRD/MCH buff), but MNK is the job that needs the buff the most, and still I don't see a ton of posts about that...
