Outta interest without any discussion I want to know how people would like to see the game balanced in their opinions RDPS wise. I want to see placements at percentiles or skill levels. I dont want any "#### should be stronger because of ### utility" etc. none of that. just place the classes in a general line.
SO I STRESS: no discussion or analysis please
Just post how you would line things up and distribute dmg in like fashion. I want to see what others think. Ignore fight specifics. Just tell me general vacuum placement, and of course hitting these marks perfectly is impossible, this is an exercise in opinion and dmg spread.
For me biggest gap should be 5% if things were perfect from top to bottom of the list.
1. BLM worst 10th percentile, Best 75th percentile up.
2. Followed by DRG, SAM, NIN
3. NIN best at 90th percentile (still behind BLM) Worst of melee when sub 25th percentile.
4. DRG best at 75th percentile up. 2nd worst of melee when sub 25th percentile
5. SAM best melee till 75th percentile.
6. MNK better than DRG and NIN at lower percentiles but falls off to be worst at max.
7. SMN and RDM BARELY behind the average melee across all percentiles
8. BRD, DNC, MCH all very similar RDPS barely behind Rez casters.
