BRD are not being nerfed but they're buffing the melee dps to keep up. 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)

    Honestly, before buff MNK and DRG could already out DPS a bard. Now, aside from an easier silence rotation, there's no real reason to run only one bard, and that's only for song. I'm pretty much full i90 on bard and I'm going to finish gearing my DRG now. lol..

    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..
