REM Revamp does not include instruments

[Calipso]

I skimmed through the responses, so sorry if this has been mentioned as far.

I'm not sure why they don't plan to include Brd weapons in their updates.

I can understand how adding something like an extra song to Daurdabla, or an extra +1 to G-horn might make them "over powered", and why they wouldn't want to go that route.

However, giving them more singing/wind/etc skill would be perfectly acceptable and keep their updates in-line with what other R/E/Ms are getting. To my understanding, the whole point of adding +skill to weapons was to make up for the differences in levels and make things easier (I probably didn't explain that right, but I'm sure you get the jist of it). Basically, other weapons have +skill on them to boost their stats: att, acc, their damage goes up, they miss less. Heck, even the mage versions of weapons get that- huge amounts of Magic Accuracy and Magic Damage. Why are brd weapons any less important? Do we not need to land Elegy, Threnodies, Nocturne on higher level mobs? Should we not have slightly stronger buffs from increased skill to help counter higher level content? Every other job is given mass amounts of +skill or +magic acc/dmg, and brd is left out. Why? o_O

I don't necessarily agree that they need to give a specific song (thought it does make sense, weapons get a weapon skill, why wouldn't we get a song?), but they should at least be buffing the base stats (CHR, Skill etc) on them. Heck, the Magic Accuracy on 99 Carnwenhan is only +25, which not only fails compared to a Chatoyant staff, but is a complete and utter joke compared to the +135 on Soothsayer =/

If they were gonna give a unique song to Horn, I'd much rather prefer that it was either a third tier of March (that gives the same amount of haste as 1+2), or something like all carols rolled into one, or a "Boost-All" type spell that gives +x to each stat.
