DPS Rank

Nothing is going to give you the perfect DPS gauge unless we had some sort of "training dummy" to see numbers unaffected by anything else.
Basically what I'm seeing is that
MNK/DRG/BLM are tier 1
BRD/WAR are tier 2
PLD/WHM are tier 3

If they do change how throwing weapon TP gain works do you think it will affect BRD or WAR/PLD more?

There are plenty of fights in MMO's that are perfect DPS gauges. I can think of 4-5 from Vanguard off of the top of my head. The point is in this game (with still only a handful of encounters) it varies on the encounter as there is no perfect DPS gauge, so saying "Garuda can be used to compare X and X class, or Miser can" is wrong due to how those fights work giving benefits to specific jobs over others.

I agree, it would be nice if we had a fight that had no overriding resistances/weakness and lasted more then 5mins
I think Coincounter would be a good judge if you didn't have to disengage for swings

I'm sure we will have a fight like that eventually, burn fights are a staple in MMO endgames. It may not be an "end boss", but surely there will be encounters where it is just a test of people's dmg rotations.

Which will be boring, but will put this discussion to rest at least.
