Best DPS class in the game?

[Eein]

What needs to be considered as well is the use of BRD's Army Paeon. Once that's in play DRG gets crazy TP regen and that burst dmg spreads out even longer!

Tp regen was increased from 50per 3 to 60per 3; It doesn't look like Bard will be needed for TP regen outside of AOE phases if people take invigorate from lancer/drg.

My current testing for P4 shows BLM > MNK > BRD > DRG in terms of standstill output, but this will likely be corrected with priority updates to my sim.
No idea on SMN yet, but we'll see if they fix the arcanist never missing bug. (carby still misses, just not the player. ever.)

A PUG has dots, he actually has 2 of them. Once he gets at 15 from the class quest, Touch of Death. And another one at level 30, Demolish. The Dragoon has 2 dots as well and so does the Archer. THM has 1 if you don't pull from any other classes and the Summoner has 3 I believe if you don't pull from any other classes.

I've tried testing these dots the best I could; Not sure if they are still broken right now (doing extremely low damage even with gear), but my testing showed that they aren't really worth using in a single target scenario, but best used when you have to move from the boss or there is a phase where you can't damage the boss but dots still tick.
