Since when is Bard an Archer?

Since they couldn't figure out how to incorporate a concertina into a great axe.

My dreams of squeezing out the tune of 16 men on a dead mans chest in combat dashed upon the rocks.

ooooo this is true.

Since musketeer is in limbo, archer made sense to them. (no El Mariachi in XIV)

Bard can use anything. Proof right here.

I would prefer it if my Bard could charm pets

and cast shadows

without even using a sj

Archers becoming bards has been the natural order of things for over a decade!

You're awesome if you know the reference :)

It seems like an oxymoron because Archers (from what I've seen) try to stay stealth like and quiet...hiding in the trees or staying far back then shooting their enemy out of no where (they don't really try to draw attention to themselves lol like HAY GAIZ IM OVER HERE NOW IMA SHOOT YOOOU) vs bards who are entertainers...they are supposed to be the center of attention, playing loud music and letting their presence known...so yeah I have no idea...

bard = music ! nothing else is in stone.

All of the firsts Bard in Video game do shoot arrow, but until much later do they take one in the knee.

You are confused that BRD will be the only job for ARC, there are plans to expand jobs per class. Also Archers do not always try to stay hidden and quiet, what's with firing flaming arrow in the middle of the night and all...
