When it's a 10-20 DPS difference I think we're really starting to nitpick here. I don't know why people think MNK should have the highest damage - they have comparable damage to NIN and DRG and bring DK + traited Mantra. If you balance for skill and make one class superior in DPS and utility to the others if you can reach the skill cap, then that class becomes OP because everyone will play it and DRG/NIN will be left in the dust. This isn't like SMN who is far behind BLM, or WAR who was far behind PLD in terms of tanking capability in 2.0. This is literally whining about 10-20 DPS because "I have to work harderrrrr ; _ ;". You don't get a balanced game by making the harder to play classes more powerful.
