    Most EASIEST DPS/RDPS class 60+

    So wondering whats best class to level up from 1-60 well and does very well end game and gets invited ALOT and also great damage and high survival (few death lol) but able to hold his end without headaches (EASY rotations and micro management) and able to do well in groups (leveling to 60) ...

    The best match for this is summoner. It is by far the easiest class to level up with, since it has titan egi and good dps for your solo questing phases. You have the added benefit of being able to play scholar (healer) which levels up at the same time as your summoner for fast dungeon queues, too. It's also pretty simple in rotation, and a very solid raid job. Highly mobile, compared to most classes, with high survivability. It has the added perk of being the only class that isn't a healer that can raise in combat, too.

    Really? Cause I've already heard the 'ug! there are two summoner's in this group! we can't down this <insert boss/trial/etc name here> with two summoners in this group! let's vote abandon' complaints only a month into HW (at which point either I or the other summoner leaves in disgrace.)

    No one says that about Bards. I've been in groups were Bards are the only DPS and everyone is tickled pink. Stay a bard, young Summoner-to-be. It's a harsh, harsh world for we summoners.

    there is no such thing as the best* DPS class if that was the case then the game choice for DPS would be very bland.
    It depends on what you want to do, SMN can be a easy job to do but also depends on how good you want to be at SMN, really good SMN's set there pets to Obey to control there pets more.

    All class's are made as equally as they can and the way the game is designed it's always best to have a mixture of DPS types in a party.

    Seeing as how you specified for RDPS/DPS, you may not be looking for MDPS.

    I would say that Archer/Bard may be the best. Queues are gonna be a little long for Duty Finder. However it's an extremely easy class. Simple to understand moveset plus very little mobility restrictions which means you can dodge and dps with maximum uptime. Plus youll have a lot of utility to make you wanted in parties.

    Second is Ninja. You can't pick it to start but you can unlock it at level 10. Pretty straightforward and good utility.

    Summoners (Arcanist) may seem pretty straightforward however can get extremely complicated. Their opener has the longest of any job and takes about 30 button presses over 40 seconds. Also dealing with weakish adds can be annoying as most damage comes from dots and abilities that are stronger from them.
