Yeah, this. I mean come on. BRD shouldn't need the best endgame gear in the game to outshine a dunna GEO

I am currently holding on to all my currency from dynamis farming, but I'm more likely to go for Aegis than a ghorn at this point, unless something changes big time for bard.

ha!

Well, at least Ghorn isn't *that* ridiculous to get. If they bumped it that much I'd actually feel it was worth the effort - even if it wasn't enough to get more parties really.

This, all of this.

Fair enough but I think it is more productive to talk about how to fix bard not about how GEO is broken.

If you have ideas on how you think a NQ bard could be competitive with a NQ geo, please...

Regardless about how anyone feels about GEO being OP... the issue is that even a dunna GEO offers more utility than most BRDs. Like my JSE bard is not going to be competitive for a slot against a JSE...

I really don't like nerfs - because they invalidate a lot of the work put in. I quit for months after what they did to BST and I still don't like playing it anymore. It took the fun out of it for me....

All these points. A NQ bard should be roughly equal to a NQ GEO. Right now a NQ GEO is better than a bard, even sometimes better than a bard with a couple ultimate weapons... in almost all...

I really appreciate the helpful and polite discussion here. It seems like there is a lot of support for bringing bard up closer to GEO.

And it isn't "dumbing the game down" to have 2 jobs that can fulfill the role of buffer equally well. We're not suggesting increasing party size or making bard better than GEO - just making BRD good...

Yes, please, something to make brd competitive for NQ folks would be really welcome. Basically I think a brd with only Oboro weapon and mid tier 119 gear should be as good as a GEO with only dunna...

It was definitely a lot more balanced before entrust... three bubbles was the end of bard....

Thanks for all the folks who chimed in with support. I love bard and I do sometimes see people asking for them, but very very rarely. GEO has a huge advantage with undispellable buffs that are...

I really love BRD, but let's be honest, there isn't much of a place for it in current content now that GEO is out and so much better. BRD's buffs can't touch GEO's buffs.

Is it possible we could...
