The Feast (Solo) match (08m00s) on Aether - https://xivpvp.com/feast/match/16916

Though its a loss at least it recorded on my profile I guess. This is usually what I see number wise myself.

Shame my matches don't always show up on this website. I guess its because i'm a ps4 player and don't run the client.

It even has my PVP Rank wrong lol. But the damage dealt and match outcome are correct.

This isn't the point. The point is reliable damage. I could link huge damage games all day, but the fact of the matter is that brd/mch can now do this kind of damage reliably, whereas before they could not (like us).

Just for you:

Can we pull 200k+? Yes. Is it reliable? No. Have I seen good BRD/MCH/SMN do it game after game? Yes.

Grats? I've had 200k matches, I've seen bards/mch do 240k games. We're not comparing top damage here, as every match is relative to the fighting happening.

I'm not here to compare my damage with yours. I'm saying it's perfectly possible to get far above ranged with melee depending on the match. As you said every match is relative, however ranges only advantage with a stat like damage dealt is they have range, thus more uptime on players. It's also easier for them to multi dot and inflate the score.
