The max parses are actually better representative of a classes maximum dps potential.

I'll tell you why. When you look at the max, and not lower percentiles, it's not as skewed. Bard has 27,000 parses, and looking at the max percentile gives the most accurate damage potential. We can see what the highest they can do, instead of how the numbers average in percentile between 27,000 different parses.

If Summoner's were as overpowered as people claim, why can't a max fed summoner overtake a blm? You can look in o1s and see a smn struggles to get past 6k dps. Blms have higher damage potential cause they start over 6.1k dps and rise to 6.3k dps.

Summoner's max damage output stays relatively the same too. It doesn't jump up or down in numbers as wildly. For overall damage potential, Summoner is fine as Blm's can do 300-400 more dps then them, but summoner does more dps then red mage. A small nerf, that brings Summoner quality of life changes would be fine, but overall, they are right in the middle when it comes to overall damage potential -- how it should be.
