I agree, I may only be level 40, but I have noticed that I'm probably doing the same, if not more, dps than the others aside from BRD. Another little thing to throw out on the discussion table is this; we have a lot of utilities, while we may be a DD, it's important to weigh in our debuffs, buffs, and our ability to off tank / off heal. Let the other classes out damage us, we play in groups, it isn't a contest to see who can cause the most damage. We all play our role within the group, let the BLM melt faces, and we'll heal him when he pulls aggro while the main healer is focusing on the tank. Look at the whole picture, that's what makes SMN beautiful.
