Best DPS class in the game?

[kukurumei]

Counting limit breaks when comparing DPS balance isn't really a good idea since some classes have damage LB and some classes do not;
Not to mention, the class cannot perform an LB3 unless the rest of the group deals damage. This should be considered a gain to raid dps, not personal dps.

You can't say that. That's like saying don't count tanks cause all you need is blms and archers. Something has to be there for the rest to exist.

sword dance is a mnk/drg only so you need one in there to get that LB. Same with BLM/acn

LBs count, because they are exclusive to other classes.

BTW how do you calculate BLM/ACN LB since they are AoE? you can't really count it 3x because it hits 3 targets...that's kind of a false positive, or true depending on situation.

In a Full PT, LB isn't really an issue because you assume there is at least one of every type, but in a Light PT, it makes a big difference, because if you don't have it, you don't have it.
