Best DPS class in the game?

[Eckoh]

Bards apparently get highest damage to counterbalance songs taking out 20%? Of course, Bards refuse to use the good songs with the 20% penalty.

My WHM girlfriend wishes more bards used Mana Regen song.

y guild has dowed HM ifrit and Garuda and i topped DPS as bard while using songs according to zams parser

As a WHM myself I will smack a bard that uses mana regen song over TP regen for the other DPS.

you haven't done the hard mode 8 mans yet if you think that.

I don't know about Garuda but it is not needed on Ifrit. Most WHM waste their mana like crazy because they know they have a BRD in raid.
Or you have 2 WHM and a WAR as MT

Now don't get me wrong, you still need to put it up from time to time but it does not represents a high amount of time.

TP song is not needed. DRG/BRD have self regen and tanks almost never run out of TP.

I did garuta without a white mage.... it was needed. Garuta is lots of AoE healing and scholars suck at that.

Dragoon would be a whole lot better if Heavy Thrust was changed to apply the buff if you're behind a target in addition to flank and our multitude of jumps didn't animation lock us for 1-3 seconds. The former would actually allow me to turn back on spell effects for other players (so I could actually see the amazing Meteor limit breaks and whatnot) while the latter would up DRG dps simply because you wouldn't have to hold off on Jumping if there's even a chance that an AoE would be dropped on top of you anytime soon/spell you need to stun.

That log parser just goes through the chat and does not take into consideration DoTs. It's not accurate.
