First of all... Napkin-Math and "assumptions" based on your "calculuations" on a Kleenex napkin are not actual source.

Better than your source, which is freshly used toilet paper.

Yeah, in actual practice, COR should not be doing half or a third of what a ranger is doing. That could happen if the RNG is capping accuracy and attack but the corsair isn't, but with the correct buffs that shouldn't be the case. I would say it's closer to 30% less than a ranger on a bad day if the corsair doesn't have to reroll too often.
70~80% seems about right, assuming both have capped acc / atk. Think it's VS that makes most of the difference since they both use much the same gear. Melee mode is a bit different though as +1250 TP Bonus is nothing to sneeze at.

Dude started spazzing out when I mentioned BRD's DD potential is limited by SE's gear choices. Then he went into full blown meltdown like someone with Asperger's. Insults start flying, internet thuging and so forth.
Best guess is that someone with a super geared BRD was meleeing with another person half assing a heavy DD on some medium tier content. The parse most likely looked something like this
37% Half Assed Heavy DD
34% Random mediocre DD
24% Super BRD
5% Random SC's
Seeing the super BRD at "only 13% behind" he thinks it's "challanging / ect..".
Problem is, that's not how math works.
37/24 = 1.541, the Half Assed Heavy DD would be doing 54.1% more damage not 13%.
I run into that all the time, people think their doing really good until I point out that you divide to find the percentage difference not subtract.

hmm what gun has a 1k tp bonus on it for cor i didnt see it on the guide. i'd like to pick it up one of my chars
Trial of magians one, ataktos I think its called, that plus herc gear savage spamming gives cor a great easy to build set up for respectable melee dding. Issue is AoE can splat cor pretty easy so you should also build hybrid -dt/full -dt sets and utsu+fc set

All players should have this, especially DD's. Anyone standing near the big bad guy needs to have a survival set and be able to instantly change into it when they see the big bad readying a TP move.
i always have DT sets and i try to have resist sets too for Tp moves that don't have heavy dmg but do have a lot of nasty like para curse an such
Bard can technically outdamage/challenge heavy DD in DPS. It just so happens to only be when the other DD are dead.

I like to load up my SMN/RNG with runic bow and arrow and one who tier4s myself.
i think this guys brd could beat saevel 2, but saevel would need to be naked, unbuffed, no weapon, weakened, have slow on and be afk to have a chance

This sounds like something I should do, soon.

Anarchy +2 is good enough for tp bonus, ataktos is for min maxers that wants a bit higher DMG for qd and lv for leaden.
Syto, don't you have other places to troll?
I would suggest Ni, or even BG. They love little dung beetles like you.

I challenge your shoestring logic with this- if your refresh is greater than the cost of a cure I spell, you're being inefficient if you DON'T cast that cure before the next tic.

Code
Red Mage Organs... have been... rearranged in alphabetic... order... Black Mage Dude. You're a Red Mage. You can use white magic to heal yourself, so what's the problem here? Red Mage Given that I can only cast a certain number of spells per day, if I were to cast one now I would then become less versatile. Black Mage If you don't cast one now, then you'll become less alive. Red Mage Unless one of my intrepid adventuring companions were to hand me a healing potion. Thief I'm not sure it's feasible at this point in time. We've still got a negative cash flow problem.
Code
White Mage Red Mage, why don't you just use your own healing magic next time? I won't always be around to save you. Red Mage But I want to stay at my peak versatility level! White Mage Think of it like this: which is more versatile? A dead mage or a living mage minus one white spell? Red Mage Hmm... I see. You've opened my eyes, White Mage. Thank you.
I love Red Mage. Unlike Thief (steal EVERYTHING), Black Mage (murder EVERYONE), or Fighter (Sword-Chucks yo), Red Mage tries to power game everything to some pretty obscene munchkin level ***.
My most favorite quote / scene ever,

"Most plans are critically flawed by their own logic. A failure at any step will ruin everything after it. That's just basic cause and effect. It's easy for a good plan to fall apart. Therefore, a plan that has no attachment to logic can not be stopped. The success or failure of any given step will have no impact on the macro level."
