It has much lower base damage than the other dps jobs. Each time a higher Ilvl weapon comes out, the weapon damage increases. It increases higher for the other jobs. Too lazy to look up the real numbers, so for example if a Dragoons WD increases 5, the bards will only increase 3. With each patch, SE keeps on widening this gap to further unnecessarily nerf bards. For example, Dragoon WD will increase 8 next patch. Bard will only increase 5. Widening the gap from 2 to 3. Equal skill / Equal gear, a bard will not come close to out DPSing any other DPS job, so this is really just unnecessary and frustrating.
