Is anyone really saying that? At most, I've seen that monks are some of the highest parsers (or highest). I've never seen anyone claiming to do 30% or 50% or even 20% the damage of another class. That just means SE's balance isn't a complete joke.

Monk doesn't need to be popular. Monk doesn't need to be easy either.
I don't believe we need a dps increase for all our trouble. Play monk if you want a challenge, and that's a good enough reason to make the effort.
If you're good, then you can be on the top even if GL3 falls off sometimes. That's all that matters.
Monks aren't gimped, and good monks shine. No one is calling for monk nerfs so I don't really see what you're defending.
What you've just said came off as monks are in a good place. At least that's how I read it.

Maybe because I have no interest in PvP.
