The unrewarding state of physical ranged

[ssunny2008]

That's ...nonsense?

Since you mentioned fflogs, melee/caster range from 18k-23k going from 10th to 95th percentile. Physical ranged from 17k to 21.4k. There's a reasonable variance for both depending on skill levels. I'd like to see your source that phys ranged have identical dps at all levels of experience.

Also you seem to have played nothing but monk, so I'm not sure where you're getting your insight on phys ranged?

It was an example and the most stuff on fflogs is gear related anyway. In kind of BRD and DNC you do even rely on your partymembers to run that 100% log. But overall the gap between good and bad players is on phys. range closer than on melee / caster classes.

Account spy pretty much? This account is as old as the char is. I´ve other chars i main or play with friends who´re new to the game. This here was my first one and just became an alt to do raids outside of my static, to assist others statics, whatever i can do as long as loot is blocked in any tier. Just a solo char obviously to do whatever i want. And the reason why i´m here after years is, because SE finally fckd up everything with their "dumb down route". (Bosses, Tanks, MNK, Fate grind 24/7... it really needs to stop.) BLM is really the last class i would play. I hate it to play pure casters. But if SE continues with such stuff, it´s probably going to be a more enjoyment than playing tank, melee, heal, or phys. range. RIP AST with 6.0 i guess.
