Unless something has been drastically changed from launch bards deal the most damage with black mages 2nd and bard are first because their best attacks have fast animations so you can use other skills or spam the same one just as what they did in the start (Which was lame btw). Summoners are third or best in damage only if the boss fight takes a long time as they have a lot of DoT skills.
Listen I applaud you for continuing with dragoon I'm just telling you what you will expect. You might be added in guild party runs but random parties want only the best damage dealers.
And ranged deals more damage because they don't need to move every 5 seconds to not get hit from the boss aoe, cone auto attack etc etc
Healers will hate and leave if melee don't dodge every single hit I've witnessed it a lot of times in titan that it was getting insanely stupid to find a friggen party to beat that thing as always someone screwed up even tough I as a dragoon had learned all the phases by heart and dodged everything.
Goodluck anyway maybe after they added that crystal dungeon they did some class tweaks as all I remember from the first 3 months is they shortened the jump animations and runing blood for blood because bards where making too much damage with it.

Mnk is the highest dps if they can keep up greased Lightning. Nothing really come close in most fights. Fights like Titan and Levi where the mob constantly goes out of attack range or imprisons you they take a massive hit to dps.
Smns are top dps only when there are multiple targets. Since they can put dots on all of them. If they are multiple targets nothing can top smn dps.
Blms are solid dds, but have issues if the fight requires alot of movement.
Drgs are an overall solid dps choice... Effected the lease from mob to mob mechanics in my opinion.
Honestly most the time in my statics of equally I-LvL ppl Mnks, Blms, and Drgs will out dmg the Brd depending on the fight. Brd is rarely the top dps. Sometimes brd is ahead of some, sometimes not.
Why people like brds is thier survivability. They can stay out of Close range Aoes completely. And can attack while moving and running out of long range aoes/conals.
Yes I know about monks dealing more than dragoons I said it too.
Both classes need to keep all buffs/debuffs 100% of the times to compete with the ranged classes damage and these buffs/debuffs requiring to hit the target from a certain position makes it worse specially with monks.
So is this game top heavy or what? Like low level doing other classes have such a hard time finding groups for dungeons and FATES. It's kind of rediculas. I'm afraid to try other classes when I reach 50(currently lvl 45). And whats with all the elitist buttholes in the game. If it's my first time doing something, have patience. Don't call me a noob and rage quit just because we died once. It's called trial and error people. How is a new person supposed to learn if you keep rage quitting and calling them noobs. Rediculas.
Truly sucks that some people bash newcomers for not knowing the game like someone who has been playing it for months, but i assure you not everyone is like that .
If someone is bashing you just tell them to chill or ignore them, definitely don't let them get between your enjoyment of the game.
