Strictly talking basically level 60+ where I personally and others I know noticed a significant drop off in party invites because there were simply better options available. Prior to that I had little issue with being invited. If you're outdpsing any job capable of using penta thrust on piercing weak mobs then your parties need to rep those DDs. Also, WS damage isn't the only factor in being a good DD. Autos and WS frequency also play a huge part.
at 60+ Thf with haste, can ws without sata more often than you think, the job didn't change from retail, he didn't nerf their damage, they are the same, thf are usually #2 or 3 in damage in 60+ party, yes you won't be #1 anymore, but your WS Still can keep you up there when you split your SA/TA, there is also hide. This is the difference between an experience thief and a new one, you know what you can utilise to maximise your damage.
