It doesn't matter how Trick works - at the end of the day it just increases the total rDPS contribution of NIN and should be counted as part of it, just like SAM's pure outgoing damage counts towards theirs.

NIN is not the only job with a raid buff that's gotten undertuned though. DRG likewise was lagging behind at 6.0 the launch. Entire physical ranged role was(and kinda stayed) awful when 5.0 launched. DNC is incredibly bad right now. SE is just in general afraid of the HW/SB meta when all people cared about was raid buffs. On the other hand MNK and RPR are allowed to be genuinely op, because SE considers them "selfish" jobs - at least according to what Yoshi P usually says - since their raid buffs aren't that powerful by themselves.
