That's a problem too. Already in "fast farm pfs" some classes are restricted, like Blm. Blm have already been secluded from such pfs in favor for Sam and other buff-dps, like drg or rdm. Having 4 Sam just might be meta xD.

Besides having one dps stand out so much will, also on fflogs, will make too many aim for Sam or flock over to it.

In the past Mnk was top dps, but not by such a big margin, with other many dps being able to compte or surpass it, depending on the comp or fight. Meaning the dps classes were very heterogeneous. Just with Drg and one ranged often in comps.

Btw how do mnk compete in 8 man raids, with no casters in the group? Brotherhood-wise.
