WAR damage is lacking

[Sarcatica]

For what? Content gets easier and easier so that even the tank with the lowest dps aka PLD is totaly fine in there.

Pretty much. People complain about anything nowadays. This balance issue only conflicts the top raiding groups who are doing day 1 progression and speedruns, which SE probably won't bother doing anything because the bigger picture is that no one is as skilled as those top raiders are, the gap is too huge to even account for. Sadly, again, SE is a company that generates revenue and balancing jobs for the highest level isn't in the agenda, opposite of the esports in that sense.

Yeah balancing to allow every job to viably clear the raid tier is good enough I think. The top progression raiders or speedrun groups will switch to whatever job/composition that results in the fastest kill time anyway, so unless the jobs are very homogenized there will be a "best" composition, even if only by a little margin. I think if 4.0 adds an "OT" oriented tank that competes with war for the "OT" spot it'll be good enough, albeit not ideal since some compositions like pld/drk will still be bad. A bit unrelated but for healers all compositions seem to work fine after the recent patches, at least neither whm/ast nor sch/whm seems to be as bad as pld/drk.

Isn't that a little bland ? Considering tank gameplay is not that different between jobs, if they have the roughly the same numbers, they'll only be more copies of each other.
For me, any party setup should offer the same overall DPS, to give freedom on the job choices (Excluded common bad choices like stacking the same jobs). Since WAR is supposed to be the top "personal tank-DPS", PLD and DRK should balance that with party utility.

I think instead of personal dps output it should be total raid dps contribution that should be balanced (like war's slashing debuff allowing nin to use higher potency combo). Not just for tanks but that should be how all dps jobs are balanced as well imo.
