Also it may be possible that monks top rogues for dps in the server's current state (I have done little research to this fact on this server but I remember this from live). Does anyone have any data to confirm/deny this statement?

I have a bunch of logs to confirm that monks can often out dps rogues with max strength and equipped with Crystalline Spear or Efreeti War Spear + Bone Razor offhand. (those just happen to be the combos we have available in Dark Ascension currently, no vexthornes, or fss')
Consider though monks have access to dual 14/28 fists, whereas the above two rogue combos are 13/30 & 15/40 + 10/22. I personally use the 15/40 and I actually switch it out for Eyerazzia 10/24 inbetween backstabs.
Most of the time of one the rogues will top the DPS chart, but our damage is extremely burst dependant unless you're using a couple variations on weapon combos where you'd focus on small/fast versus high damage/slow. If we miss more than a few backstabs the DPS chart will likely read 1. Monk 2. Monk 3. Rogue etc, which really just speaks to the riskiness of using higher damage/delay weapons when engaging lvl 52+ targets. We actually have a fella in DA who uses Bone Razor + PSD and he especially demonstrates this combo's effectiveness when we're in PoSky.
