I can't compare to other dragoons or monks since I never get matched with them in DF.
the damage meter is an external program. the PS3, atm, would have no way to run it. the agro meter is NOT a dps analyzer in the least. Things like buffs gain a stagnant amount of agro. For instance when a blackmage gains thundercloud or firestarter they will inch up on the meter. For whatever reason our buffs dont seem to gain near as much as a bard's. We tested this like a month ago but my GF was able to do less than half my damage (only pressing a damage button every few seconds) and still keep her agro higher than mine on the agro meter as a bard.
