Correct but most of his gear advantage globally isn’t relevant for damage output. That’s just worn haste, his weapons and worn attack.
That is literally every stat that gives a melee any sort of damage output.

If he had only his weapons, his haste item and enough single pieces of gear to buff his str out to 255 (which with those 3 items he could shaman stack to 255) he’d be operating at 99% or more of his total dps potential once properly buffed
Are we comparing worn atk? I would estimate he would be closer to 85-90% of his operational dps without any worn atk, but I don't know the nuances of monk damage.

A surprisingly small number of those pieces translates to damage.
Isn't that true for everybody though? I'd say it's even more true for nearly every other person on the server.

I’d love to see it side by side the melee dps of a melee BiS ranger in the same group with the same buffs.
So would I.

I’m pretty confident I know which person would put out bigger numbers. It’s the same person (class) who put out higher numbers in kunark.
That's a fun thought experiment and I'd love to know the data, but for the other 99.7% of the velious raiders - rangers have done more damage than monks approx. 3/4th of the time in the parses I've reviewed.
