DPS jobs, which relic is the most bang for the buck?

[bounddreamer]

I have my 210 WAR wep and I'm turning my attention to other jobs. I got the awoken 200 weapons for SCH and AST, am almost ready to turn in the Awoken Elements for Tetrabiblos, and I'm starting to consider getting a dps weapon for one of my dps jobs.

This is where I need some help. My DRG and SMN are already decently geared, I don't like BLM at 60, but my other dps jobs need serious weapon love. Which 200 (and 210) weapon would be the best choice to make it worth the grind for MNK, NIN, or MCH? (Even BRD I suppose.) I wouldn't rule out DRG or SMN either, because I tend to dps with those two the most, but at this point I don't use the other jobs because their weapons are still 160.

My group is still (sadly) working on Thordan EX so farming that will take longer than just grinding out another relic at this point.

Of those 3, MNK's weapon has the best secondary stats for sure. BRD is probably even better, if you consider that.

[Wadey]

Really, you should just pick the one you enjoy playing the most!

That being said, if you're looking at secondary stats on the relic weapons, MNK and BRD got a great deal with the crit/det. The other DPS jobs didn't really get ideal secondaries. I'm gonna guess they'll allow us to customise the secondary stats in a future patch though.

Thanks for the replies! Between MNK and BRD I think I enjoy MNK more, but need to practice more with the 60 rotation. I think I'll go for the MNK weapon.

I'm the kind of player who likes variety between jobs so after my main it's been difficult to choose a favorite dps. I can't even pick between SCH and AST for fave healer...

Oh my god, it's Talya. Run everybody.

Pretty sure bard has the best stats at the moment (that crit/det....yes ugh)
But honestly you'll do best at a job you enjoy so... go with what you like. Probably the stats will be somewhat customizable in the end, like last time.

Monk for sure. Unless you want the extra skill speed from the i210 Eso weapon (but you need to beat A4S so I guess that's not a great option) which Monk doesn't really need...but it's nice to have I guess.

Ninja got shafted hard with their weapon (det/ss lol) so I just hope that we get to customise stats in the future. It is my off job so I'll have to do it eventually.

I'm not looking to spend eso on weapons at this point, though my static will be looking to clear A4S at some point...probably after 210 wep are obsolete, lol. All of the answers are convincing me to go for MNK, thanks everyone! (Except Waul, he ignored all his Lamia friends for Mr. Happy.)

Oh come on! By the time I looked up on the screen you were teleporting away! Not to mention I had a giant scratch ticket in the way and the livestream chat on my computer! You've ignored me WAY more! I demand Eorzean justice!
