Monk where it's at currently is pretty ridiculous.
Shoha will sadly not fix the whole sam issue but it will at least help us deal some more damage. The real issue is that our rotation is based on a specific SkS tier and having 100% boss uptime in order to not delay our burst. Fixing this will also help Sam get on the upper end of the melee job.

As for Dragoon, I keep saying that it does way too much atm, damage, buffs... Imo, if Monk's brotherhood was a general damage buff and not only a physical buff, yeah then Dragoon would need to be above. Atm however, I don't think that's the case.
I personally think that Sam should be way higher than it is right now, followed by Monk, then Dragoon and Ninja roughly on par. (Can't speak about ninja tbh, I don't have played the class at all :x )

That, and buffing some ranged dps and casters would make for a more healthy game balance overall...
