BRD vs Caster

[ExKage]

I'm trying to ask since apparently people know how to play casters/BLM better than I do in Wolves' Den / Frontlines.

But how is a BLM supposed to not get wrecked by a bard / melee dps?

PvP in this game is widely based on the team itself unless you are considering people who superhero themselves into the enemy army. Black mages are a very dangerous threat if they can not be interrupted and require help from healers, just as healers require 'peels' or people to pull others off them in order to allow them to support the party.

Sleep and Blizzard help. Also that ability that reduces skill recast by 50% is great so cap that. Cap Purify, and also Equanimity. If Equanimity isn't up, just run out of range from them, most of the time they will stop following u quickly so you can come back and then get rid of em.

Also while some may disagree, I tend to pick off DPS, namely Melee while the rest of the PT goes for healers, depending on how many healers they've got. It helps two ways. It gives the healers yet another target to have to heal, so they have to choose, and also it gets rid of DPS to have less hitting your healer.
