If the difference now in DPS is appropriate then the scaling level needs to be fixed. If the difference now is not appropriate then the base AND the scaling needs to be fixed.

Either way, the scaling needs fixing.
Rogues weapons scale as 1Hers. Druid weapons scale as 1Hers. Via class abilities, rogues convert this to some amount of dps. Druids convert this to some other, lower amount of DPS. There is a conversion function. It generates smaller numbers. This does not prove that it scales more poorly. It sounds to me like druid weapons scale quite similarly to rogue weapons; hence if the damage is comperable right now, what basis is there for believeing that druids will be unable to convert their weapon damage into dps at the same efficiency?
