So the "no BRD" shouts have begun, thanks Yoshi P

Did it ever occur to them how it feels like a complete waste of time to look at a job and see its abilities and traits and decide to choose it only to have them change the reasons you picked it in the first place

You choose a bard because of blood for blood, internal release and RoD? 2 out of the 3 are not even bard abilities and the last was really limited to begin with.

Did Ifrit HM yesterday with 4 poorly geared bards and AK with 2 poorly geared bards.

Sky isn't falling.

are you retard? you keep saying that bard is nerd ....

I had to stop reading, grammar is giving me cancer, the irony of someone who hasn't mastered the English language asking about someone else's cognitive level lmao

ah sorry
look like the only way you to win argument in internet is via grammar
kudos mr english man

[Mags]

really, cause Im pretty sure the nerf came from other DPS bitching and whining about BRD being soooo OP, lol as if we were

Don't be so naive. While the input here is noted by SE, we are a small portion of the total player base. You honestly believe that SE caters to the “omg dis job so OP nerf plxplox” fourm posters? Really?

One bard is still required for the hardest content in the game.

only one of each class should be required for any content, when you start stacking to much of the same, theres something wrong with it...

[Taruranto]

Maybe they already had one or two BRD in the party, duh.

It doesn't make sense to patch it, its not like they don't test these jobs out with all available cross class abilities, gear, etc.... so why the changes, it would be almost as dumb as saying, "PLD defense is too high, they are not taking enough damage when fighting enemies" seriously, they decided how much base dmg to give when they created the game, they decide n everything, if they are not testing it to start with and making necessary adjustments then am I to believe we are STILL in a beta testing phase.

simple solution

turn bard into this :


and finally give us :


it's so simple, really.
even a game from 2001 was able to pull it off and we even got archer as a class already, so the skills are all there already!

Only bad players bring no bards. When a group doesn't need mage ballad, having foe requiem + double casters is extremely good for burn phases. When a group needs mage ballad... well, they need mage ballad.

The Rain of Death change was kind of a twitch reaction. Now it's completely worthless, but at least it means you save 200 TP to use on Heavy Shot instead of having to debuff Twintania/Dreads.
