I didn't mean to infer drg/mnk are weak, I was merely stating the generally accepted opinion of the populous.

Our drg does great, and higher dmg than most people I've encountered. Mnk's are ok minus greased lightning dropping during movement mechanics. And what I stated was based on the drops we get over 2 months. You say mage gear dropped, I'm saying all of our drops are mostly mnk/drg and blm/smn and we clear 1-4 every monday now.

And to your point, turn 4 is way more of a team comp dps check than turn 2. You can do turn 2 with 4 melee if you can handle rot and have 2 paladins. I wouldn't want to do turn 4 without at least one aoe based mage.
