    Do you really want to be "that guy" who puts ego over smooth runs?
    I really don't understand this mentality. If you play a DPS, shouldn't you want to be competitive with all things equal? Being less DPS in ideal circumstances than another DPS class isn't something I want in a game like this.

    All I know is that when the tank and healer died on the last boss, me and my archer friend soloed the boss from 50%. You can't do that with 2 archers. Feels pretty competitive to me.

    Good DPS is good. I can already pull aggro from tanks whenever I want... why do I want more damage?

    in reality the classes are close enough the best player will be the best DPS. They are all capable of being number 1 under the right conditions.

    how do you know that? Are you leveled all the dps to 50? or your words are the universal truth? the numbers at endgame dont say the same...

    Hopefully this doesn't derail the thread.

    Can any character obtain any "job". I started out as a pugilist, does that mean i can only endgame monk at 30 and later or can i just go level the other perquisites to lvl 30 and on and become a black mage or paladin?

    Which numbers? Didn't know there was already a parser or DPS meter available for FFXIV: ARR.

    Really? It's been mentioned several times in this thread alone.
