The multi-posting is strong in this one.

As for the OP, I don't see what your point is. Whether they q.q or not doesn't change the fact that drg has more versatility and higher ST-DPS than monks. Namely, a combo with no positional requirement with high potency, 2 DoT GCDs with high potency, easier to maintain buffs such as heavy thrust or BoTD(goes up to 30secs) compared to GL3.

Without a shadow of doubt an equally skilled DRG will have no problem out-dpsing an equally skilled monk.

Pretty sure Ninjas and Monks deal roughly the same DPS now based on dummy parses. But ninjas rely less on positional except for a few skills so you can imagine them doing better in certain boss phases. But that's all I can go on based on experience since I haven't touched ninja yet.
