    You don't understand what burst is, do you?

    Burst is high damage in a short period of time, a good 10-20 seconds usually (about how long most adds are supposed to live). Burst is NOT just a single attack.

    A lucky 2.3K Fester, once, during that time is NOT true burst, since you're doing the same damage as you would normally otherwise (DoTs and pet still doing the same damage. Not sure where you're getting a 2K windblade from either, Garuda doesn't actually do much damage...once Ifrit is fixed you can say goodbye to the green one); you got a good crit. Big deal. You can do that at any time...or you may never do it. It is pure luck

    I do about 1550-1700 with FT, 750-1200 VT (depends on crit) and 1050-1600 Jump (depends on Crit) in about 3 seconds during a full burst phase (that's with HQ X-Pot, HQ Risotto, BFB, Dis, HT, Life Surge on FT, Power Surge on Jump, and decent luck with the RNG)...so about 3350-4500 damage, not counting auto attacks or DoTs ticking away (probably add another 500-1200 damage through them, so total about 3850-5700, depending on when the global clock lines up in those 3 seconds). You were saying something about a 2.3K not-always-guaranteed crit Fester?
