Bard limit break does not make sense

The limited break for Bard needs to be changed. The whole class is mushed up mess with no real thought behind it. Really feeling like Bard was a last minute job that they put together and didn't even try to put any type of synergy into the class. Really hoping to see some changes to the limit break and updates to the job soon. :/

Personally i feel Bard, should have an enhancing Limit break. As we will always have a healer for the big healing LB. An enhancing limit break wouldn't be an attack like other DPS jobs but maybe provide significant buffs to TP, Mana Regen, Skill speed, Spell Speed, Determination, and clear alignments. Therefore you get the DPS style damage output but its a support LB.

T1: Battle Cry
T2: Fury Brand
T3: Gjallarhorn

I would be cool with this as it would increase the dmg to the boss indirectly and help all party members in some way. The heal is just too weak and the range is too small to have a "wipe saving" effect if the healer is already dead. For the heal to be even close to effective, it has to be used in comjunction with a healer so that you can help the healer catch up on the increased dmg.

I like the current LB.
LB3 is really OP and a life saver when a few people died for the group rez. If a healer would need to use it, he would waste time but a bard casting it allows healer to focus on tank healing.

No problems with the class/job or limit break here. I love giving added support to my healer. And when there are two bards in the party; the healer never runs out of mana. We can also keep TP up for tanks/other classes. We can increase damage for spell dps, or hog the dps when our support isn't needed. Plus we can decrease our enmity... No complaints here, the class works freaking great.

I like the LB too. It's really good in a pinch, especially when your whole party gets caught in an AoE attack. The last thing I want to do is pull the healer off the tank when we are fighting a big scary xD

The biggest issue with this is that you will never need your LB. You will ALWAYS have a Healer in your party that has access to it. The only use is to use it when your Healer is too busy to use it, which is rare.

On the contrary, If you need to use the healing/rez LB, that means that your healer is in a pinch. So it makes more sense for a BRD to use it over a healer.
Anyway it is a very situational LB. Most the time, only damage LB are used.

I have used and personally am happy with the healing limit break. Like a few others have said it helps the healer focus on what's going on rather then worrying about casting this.

What a waste of a limit break, If they wanna give some support LB to bard fine, but archers have no support skills they are non-magic ranged DPS, Why kill the class by changing it to support halfway through the game(leveling)? hybrid classes never pan out. Leave the healing to a healer, give archers dps
