I originally selected Bard because it was listed as more support and not straight DPS. For me, I would like to see the return of Conjurer as the second class, this would open up healing options, rezzing options and make the Heal LB a logical extension. It would also remove some of the "Bard has too much DPS" issues as we would lose access to either Dragoon or Monk Skills
Just to be clear, I would not advocate the Bard taking the healing slot in 4 or 8 man groups. I would still consider us a DPS class, we would just better options when dealing with things go south.

im really reeeeeeeally hopping that when MSK or RNG come into play, they draw back to BRD 1.23. that was a true support class!. i was singing all around buffing all classes, casting res. and stoneskin, trowing little heals here and there that would not be super mega heals but could heal just eoungh so that a real heal by a healer would land in a desperate situation.
BRD was my main class in 1.0, i loved it. now my bow grows spiderwebs and collects dust.
BRD in 1.o sung like freddy mercury or jim morrison... now.. they sing baby baby baby ooooooh, and wrecking ball. like justin beiber and miley cirus >.<

Since Bards are stuck with the Healing LB least thing we should be able to do is Battle Resurrect. Currently there is only 3 Jobs that can rez and Summoners get the Mage LB.

I'm shocked Bards don't have lullaby, at the very least. The game calls the job "Bard" but songs are an incredibly small aspect of the job.
