DANCER lowest dps in game? why

[dragoelete]

Dancer is definitely not the right job for players who like being in the lead of DPS numbers. It is meant for those who enjoy pushing DPS numbers for others.
At this point I'm just hoping it stays that way. I don't want another job with actual active support that consist of more than pushing one button to be gutted in favor of players who treasure their personal dps above all else. There already are more than enough alternative jobs for exactly that ^_^.

most of the people who have posted here have stated they dont want it to be top pdps but they want themm to at least be on par or a bit behind mch in rdps meaning combined pdps and buff dps.

This. I'm 100% ok with my pDPS being exactly where it is. I just want my "total contribution" to be competitive with other jobs of the same role. Typically the point of playing a support class is you are someone willing to sacrifice pDPS because the rDPS increase from your buffs combined with your pDPS ("total contribution") exceeds the DPS of a pDPS only class.

For example: I want the balance to be such that a comp of 3 MCH and 1 DNC is higher total dps than a comp of 4 MCH even if that means the DNC pDPS is 2k behind all of the MCH because his rDPS contribution is 2.5-3k.
