Ninja Bard nerf?

Reroll tank. The game needs more of those anyways. Otherwise unsubscribe until a favorable patch for bard comes out.

Or how about we voice our opinions and get this reversed. I know it is a longshot but this is unjustified and if you are of the camp that thinks we are overpowered go pick up bard, a parser, and play it in 70+ ilvl gear. What you find might surprise you.

What the heck? Why? If the aim is to lower dps and increase utility, then add a 'support role' to the duty finder and let us fill that position, otherwise, let us fullfill dps by keeping our dmg up...

I'm not gonna lie, i use df when i'm bored or on at weird times of the day and pre patch i usually sighed if i got two bards. Now its going to be even slower?

The nerf isn't what confuses me tho, the fact that it was not in patch notes makes me wonder if there are other adjustments we don't know about as well.

Ah exactly what I was telling my FC the other day. SE has the tendency to over nerf or over buff, their sense of balance lacks delicacy. What pisses me off is I was mulling over not renewing my subscription the other day but I did. Glad to see that we got 6 nerfs this patch instead of 4.

Shadowbind
B4B
Internal Release
Rain of Death
and now these 2

I really hope they don't wait till 2.2 to address this or I feel bad for 2 bard 4 mans...

oh man, it is early. jebus SE, how much more can you take

Perhaps its the early morning hours making you go blind, but misery's end is still 190, heavy shot is still 150, but bloodletter and straight shot are the shots in question here, and they are both 130 potency now.

TEST The numbers guys... I just hear people reading the skill tooltip instead of testing...

DRGs jump says its 250 pot... Guess what.. DRGs checked it.. AND IT IS ONLY 200...(this means the skill did not change)

Maybe, JUST MAYBE... we are seeing the text of the first changes they were trying to make before they moved onto cross class changes.

This is unacceptable. Who was the smart guy that though this was a good idea?
I really hope that SE address this asap because the bards are pretty much useless now

To be honest, my Bloodletters still seem to be hitting as much as my Heavy Shot (which is 150 Potency). So... it's possible this is just a visual/textual typo. Then again, I could be wrong since my gear isn't the greatest and the difference in Potency may not be as big for me.
