macros: bad for DPS?

[saeedaisspecial]

I pointed out that the Dragoon has to move, where a Monk gets to choose to move. I also pointed out that the Dragoon has to take greater risks for the smaller gains, due to their lower survivability. Stop skimming. I know you don't like me having a point, but I do. You're being too general, too dismissive, and too harsh.

No.
There is no "choosing" when it comes to optimising your DPS. Both jobs need to. Which is what this is all about.
There is no greater risks for smaller gains, because if anything, a MNK moving is a greater risk for a smaller gain. Just look at what both jobs gain/risk.
A MNK moves to gain their positonal advantage. What do they gain by moving and obtaining this positional? They gain a slight potency increase in their damage. What do they lose if they don't obtain positional? They only lose minor potency.
A DRG moves to gain their positonal advantage. What do they gain by moving and obtaining this positional? They the ability to continue their combo and/or the benefits on Heavy Thrust. What do they lose if they don't obtain positional? They cannot combo (and their postional is their best combo) and/or 15% damage.

DRG gains more (not less as you stated) by moving into a positional, you entire argument is backwards. As for the risks, they are equal, because at end game anything deadly to one is deadly to another, most attacks will one shot any unbuffed DPS. Do not use Blood for Blood as an example for DRG while neglecting MNK, because they both have access to it.

I see you hit your post limit, so once again good job on picking out a tiny portion of my post you can reply to, while ignoring the rest.

At this point, I'm honestly done. It's blatant that you have no idea what you're talking about, and you've gone so far off topic that you're the one not answering the original threads question anymore. I really don't know what you hoped to gain by steering the argument this way, but here we are.
