Exactly, plus does any bard really ever uses Shadowbind outside of PvP? Migth as well just put this skill as a PvP skill and give use Farshot instead.
Another useless bard skill is Swiftsong, yeah...

3.4 seems to have an Accuracy cap around 700~705 for BRD / MCH.
With 600 you,re going to miss a lot.

My advice on Barrage if you Empureal arrow is on CD is to wait that it comes out of CD.
There will be a difference of 240 potency damage between a Barrage Heavy shot and a Barrage empyreal arrow....

I'm not a fan of DET on Bard in 3.0 since you don't have Auto-Attacks anymore.
In my Oppinion what you need with your bard in 3.4 :
687 Accuracy (With Baked Pipira Pira you'll get 705, seems to be...

If bard's keyblade glider makes you glide on it when you sprint with your weapon sheated... I'm all in!!!!

I just want to thank Elrindonar for treating my case while treating it as a human and not a machine, this is really appreciated, online games need more GM like you. ;)

I believe there's no doubt about maxing Crit, the real question is more, Skill Speed or Determination.

Seeing how Bard's DoT received a 10% damage buff and determination impacting the DoT it...

Then add a side quest that would get you swear an allegiance for a PvP faction that would add a reason to fight each others, it doesn't have to be the three grand company.

For anyone that played...

You don't really need to activate your Wanderers minuet before lvl 56, you can use it for your opener, barrage empyreal arrow is pretty damn strong but it's both Iron Jaw and Empyreal Arrow that will...

Also add a boss that randomly spawns once every day at random time on that map that drop a unique drop for the party that did most DPS on it.
Make him drop something crazy but like really rare, only...

The Bards buff was for PvE and not PvP, I think they might,ve just forgot about PvP when they decided to buff bard. Still considering MCH ability to burst even if Bard still got a pretty good burst...

MCH is not dead at all, from what I'm seeing the class should be pretty much equal now, except that going for Bard + SMN + BLM is really worth now (180 seconds CD Battle Voice)
I showed earlier on...

Thank you Square Enix.

Except no one wants to play as tank or healer, let the people play their DPS class, won't be unfair since it'll only be DPS.
It's wrong to try forcing people to play a class they don't want to play.

Currently the wait time for PvP if you're a DPS (Especially ranged DPS) is just crazy.
So how about addind a Feast 4 v 4 DPS only, no healer, no tank.
I'm pretty sure that would alleviate the wait...

Or you can also just take away your chat box in the HUD.
There's no reason ever to save an LB in non end-game content, there's no enrage and in the end the difference of time for the clear would be...

You can start moving your character around when your cast bar hit around 65% and it will not disturb your casting. So in the end the cast time is somewhere around the 1 second, only thing is even if...

Not for Legolas!
Hey look, it's a door.

@RiceisNice

Stop looking at A5S please, A5S is easy and doesn't necessarily favors any class, look at the next 3 floors.
Just like said previously more bards cleared A5S... dropping to so low,...

Midan Savage is 90% mechanics, if you're doing mechanics right, healers should have no problems. On the other hands most mechanics are team based and if fucked, you will most probably kill a couple...

@ashwich

I'm pretty sure the reason why Bards are beeing ignored in Midas is for A6S second boss mainly, not really for the little DPS difference, even though that 200 DPS CAN do the difference...

@RiceisNice
I really don't see why you're so upront about not balancing BRD, I mean you are right by saying MCH was falling behind with Gordias just as much as BRD is falling behind with Midan now....

@Violette

What are you talking about? If you're a DPS you shouldn't have Vitality melded on your gear. Vitality given by DPS food should be enough.

@RiceisNice

Are you drunk? I think I probably mentionned the DPS gap like once or maybe twice if you count the moment I have bring concrete proof of that DPS gap, after that we just discussed...
