I think the MNK's insane burst dps will be really useful for when a lot of dmg is required in a short period of time such as titan's gaol, conflagration and dreadknights. I think SMN will be the weaklink as they already have lowest burst dps and their AOE is not that great.

(by the time a SMN finishes casting all the DoT, the conflag is already dead...lmao)

to keep up? they already could keep up, our dmg came from these abilities. b4b, IR, HE etc. that's where our extra dmg came from but mnk could already pass us. Completely idiotic nerfs/whateveryouwannacallthem

but yea... hurray for saving 200tp.

This is going to be even better if this effect applies to bosses since accuracy cap for turn 5 is insanely high if you want to stay geared in i90 stuff.

Im beginning to think you have NO CLUE how to gear a bard.... actually I'm damn convinced you know nothing whatsoever about bard at all..

They're nerfing Bard's cross class abilities like Internal Release and Blood for Blood

edit grammar

Your totally wrong, acc is never a problem for us, and only the first 3 adds and the Snakes require the acc Cap. And missing 1 attack or 2 wont change the outcome of the fight at all.

Losing Rain of Death and Virus chains will really be a problem in t5.

Rain of death change is not about nerfing brd damage (that was the issue to fix here). It's just a stupid way to make a good skill completely useless.

If Bard is supposed to be a support-dps, what's the reason behing removing one of the best support skill it has?

Gotta agree with that. The change from 10% decreased damage to 10% decreased enemy evasion is nonsensical, especially when the BRD is intended as more support oriented role.

The changed to B4B and IR are completely fine when looking at them from the supporter standpoint.
