Its in a good place right now. Better than nuking side of RDM anyway. You need to get good Skirmish augments on your armor and weapons though which requires luck or deep pockets...but all jobs need to have their good augmentable gear to be "good". DW is the way to go most of the time, but SH is also not as much of a slouch anymore and you can become pretty tanky with /RUN (10sec flash is cool). They also straight up doubled Enspell damage a bit ago, its pretty sweet having 70+ extra damage per hit.
I would say its probably in the best place its been as a whole package...but in terms of direct comparability to other jobs, I do believe it is worse now than it was @75 cap...but I think that is more of a distinction between the "DD" oriented jobs scaling better against ilvl content than hybrid jobs. My DNC also feels sluggish these days for the same reasoning despite being decently geared.
The best part imo now is being able to reliably self skillchain.
