Because statements like the one you made would only come from someone who has never played the class and doesn't know how its core gameplay works.

So you say "good" Bards stay still like BLMs? Wrong.

Two words:

Repelling Shot.

If you truly knew how to play Bards, then you wouldn't need any explanations.
Why don't you look up my character data on the Lodestone. I have played every class to 50 minus the Dark knight and the Machinist. Here's where you didn't read my post correctly.

My complaint was the nonsense of jumping around constantly and moving aroudn when it is really not needed. Not to mention while doing this I have see many times people taking unnecessary hits with lame excuses because they can't sit still. Why do you need to be jumping around all the time? Why do you need to be moving during every fight? I main as a caster and I move far less than a Bard. I'm a caster I know, but seemly i take less damage than a bard because I'm not running around blaming my camera turning me around into an AOE because I feel the need to run around and jump because "i can".

So yes I have played bard, and yes I have played the 60 bard, my wife's bard. I see no issue with the move at all other than its buff. Needs to be 10 to 15% for it to be worthwhile, but overall none of the new bard changes are class breaking where the entire class has gone down the crapper.
