Man, I find FFXIV logs to be a very bad method of comparison. Most people don't even -care- what their DPS is at, and the ones that do are trying to find ways to bloat thier DPS as high as possible (The "#1 Monk" I hear about is often a monk that gets to just ignore mechanics and focus on DPS'ing a boss. What exactly makes them #1 in that case?)

I saw some high WAR's for A2S... who were using 2 bards, and there also just so happened to be 3 tanks in that party. xD So yea... FFXIV logs is a bad example for anything. The fact that WAR -can- do high DPS if they're given all the right conditions doesn't mean that they will. Though don't get me wrong - I'm putting out over 1.4k-1.5k on phase 1 of A3S is -awesome-, that's just the nature of burst vs. sustained.
