    Idk why people are using moogle as DPS example, there are too many things going on in moogle to get correct DPS between everyone, people that hits hard early will have to hits slower later on because they will have moogle following them etc.

    Garuda can be used for damage comparison between MNK and BLM because they don't need to do plumes.

    Misser is probably the best if you want to test out DPSs because everyone can go all out there if your tank doesn't completely suck.

    Not really, unless the MNK is eating shriek's in the first phase they aren't getting as much time "on boss" as BLM.

    Miser also is weak to fire which gives monks higher than usual damage, plus given how she moves at set intervals it is hardly uninterrupted putting DRG at a disadvantage due to how their timers line up.

    Also I dont do moogles anymore, but with ARC I could go all out 99% of the time due to how fast our group killed them and binds. I would think it would be even easier now. The people who are at a disadvantage in moogle as I said are melee, and that is because certain mobs like furry/wooly have scripted abilities that cause them to run away from you interrupting melee.

    Ok if MNK is really at such a disadvantage (which i don't think they do because it takes 2sec to run up to her after jumping), it means MNK must be terribly strong at Garuda because my MNK is constantly at 30k while the BLMs at 24-26k.

    and what does fire have to do with misser? so to compare real DPS, MNK must not use fist of fire? i guess DRG shouldnt use Power Surge as well! I totally missed what you are trying to say here. (and even with fire weakness, DRG still keep up to 130-140 DPS on misser, they parsed about the same)

    Yes MNK does more damage than BLM which I said.

    Second of all LOL you are parsing the entire fight or what (which would be stupid, phase 2/3 are not a straight burn due to the interupts). You are posting total damage numbers as if they mean something, you do realize that those #'s are entirely dependent on the rest of the group's contributions.

    130-140 DPS you are taking about a single spot Miser, which is <2 minutes long. That is not long enough to extrapolate who does "better damage in the game" when both jobs have abilities with 80 sec+ cooldowns. But even still monk does higher dmg due to fire as well as how their timers line up nearly perfectly for that fight.
