Our bard just took the last 4th of the final boss of AK down by circling around while backpedaling. End game content. go.

read the limit break brds get a heal limit break not a dd one why because there were never supposed to be a full offensive job or go back and read some of yoshi old letter or read the questions from the beta or go read the questions from the old live letters its been stated many times brd is not supposed to be a full offensive class i wish they wouldve left it like it was a full support job
When i heard they were changing the sub classes I was concerned - but now I think on it, if they changed it back to a class with support skills like conjurer, that might be a nice buff to our functionality as a support class...
your rite sir only whm.... it clearly says whm/sch and the point hes tying to make is because brds buffs arnt as strong as whm buffs which i repeat clearly says whm/sch they would never be a reason to use them which is clearly false and understood by anyone who played brd in 1.0 and even now ive been in plenty of parties without any whm the point is supporting is supporting its not about who cast the better buff its about making sure the buffs are up and the healers arnt wasting there mana or time to cast the buff thus the TERM support not only that our support job was to raise anyone who was dead buff them and heal if a healer went down so yes i took the advice and read it but my point is very clear thanks and this is wat i was editing my post with along with that whm are the only ones who can to a better protect and ss but since u had to jump to correct me before i could finish editing it u get my full response lol thanks for the correction though
To be honest, there's no scenario where a bard would need to cast protect. You always always have a healer, or you're not doing something where you're going to die.
I suppose if they add a boss that constantly dispels buffs..
And at 50, stoneskin costs 266 mp. Believe it or not, it drains fast on a whm or sch if you spam it. I'll use it on a tank sometimes, or a weakened target helping them edge through til weakness wears, but I can't imagine a job with 1400 mp (or whatever bard actually has) would want to spam it. It's a good spell at certain points for PLD, but I know how it feels on such a little mp pool.
You want your bard to have full mp to get max time out of songs. They'd have to alter the job quite a bit if they actually wanted it using mp for other things.

To be honest, forget coil, CT, titan, this is probably a nerf targeting WP speed runs because how dare.
