MCH isn't the lowest DPS, they're actually on the higher end when played at a high skill level. The issue is the job in general is very, VERY clunky and its rotation/opener is super latency-based. I don't know how anyone can reasonably play MCH/BRD on a controller.
For the majority of the community, it's not a fun job to play. MCH could be the highest DPS in the game and it'd probably still be the lowest population DPS class. They actually were one of, if not the top DPS during the last Heavensward raid tier, and they were still nowhere to be found.
