Honestly, I agree with you with that. I always believed rdm and smn should be almost equal in damage. Even now Im not asking for a huge dps buff to put us far ahead of rdm. I just want some slight adjustments so it doesnt feel like Im sandbagging my static for going as a smn. Right now I have no other opinion for a dps. We have two melees (rpr and nin), we have a mch and a 9th member who is the raid leaders brother who playing rdm. On nights where the mch cant come we be using the rdm so Im either have to stay smn, switch to blm, or switch to a phy range. I personally suck as blm and dont like the job at savage level of play, I dont care for most phy range outside dnc who is also having problems. Smn is my only choice and it feels bad bc I know I'm going to be useless compared to the rdm.
