Am I wrong in understanding the bulk of the BRD story was based on Jehantel not supporting his comrades and thus they all died? He got bored with his support role and went off to do his own thing, thus all of his friends were murdered.

Either way could one not simply look at every single skill BRD as a job gets and realize... they are all support skills? Further more if we were to look at the bulk of the Archer skills one would see that a majority are support/dot.

Again I feel that by design it was meant to be support. At least /as support/ as support can possibly be in this game without being a waste of a dps spot.
