It should be on the level that when people ask who does the most dps, the immediate answer should be Monk. No argument. No ifs or buts. It's not that way now.
This as well. People severely overestimate the DPS capabilities of Monk.
On similar player skill levels, a DRG having the same amount of uptime as a Monk will do about the same amount of dmg, 50-100 or so DPS short of eachother.
I could see if Monk did as much as a Black Mage, but the reality is it only barely brings more than another melee that offers more damage to the entire raid.
