Jobs you feel yoshi and team got wrong

BRD, just BRD. You only have 4 songs, of which only 3 are usuable in combat, and 2 of those are extremely situational. You also don't have access to any support spells like Stoneskin or Raise, which would help with the support 'feel' that most would expect from BRD...things 1.0 let them have from what I heard. Until they get those back, BRD will never feel right to me.

This.

The sound my face made when it crashed into my desk following Bard using another shooty skill in the Benchmark was not pleasant. I know they said we're getting more than 2 skills come 60, but still... If they'd shown off a new Song I'd have been cheering... Instead I'm reminded that Bard is 90% Ranger 10% Bard...

Sadly I don't think Bard is ever going to change. They wont add Ranger for the same reasons they wont add Thief, and since Jobs vastly outweigh Classes, the Jobs end up being both instead of being able to use the Class as well, allowing the Job to do something vastly different. We'll have a Bard that is always a bit too much Ranger, rather than having more support through Songs, and a Ninja which... Well hopefully Mug is the end of it, though I'll always think of what could have been (Thief evasion tank, stealing the enemies attention, oh my!), still stuck with not-a-lot of Ninja looking weapons though...

I look at some of the concept art and see characters using drums and flutes and... Meh...
