BRD/MCH look here

[Edellis]

Not as well as you think. The devs even threw in a 15sec cool down on GB when you turn it on or off. So stance dance is out of the question especially during your opener and during buff rotations. And with that cast time it throws a wrench in the way brds use to play. That's like adding cast times to drg and mnk it just wont fit.

What the....look if you were EVER trying to stance dance before this patch on BRD at intervals of 15 seconds, then i can understand why people are complaining about crappy DPS.

It throws a wrench in your playstyle if you're too stiff to learn a new trick, which is really all you're doing. I barely even notice my cast times anymore, it simply isn't that big a deal. In the end it really just comes down to players sucking and refusing to get better. If you were good at 2.0 bard and refuse to get good at 3.0 bard's mechanics, then you are just choosing to suck.

You ask for competitive DPS, to hang with the melees and casters, yet when they actually provide an avenue to make bridging that distance a bit less extreme, you guys roll on your back and start QQQQQQQQQQing about silly stuff. You want "GOOD DEEPS" but refuse to make a sacrifice for anything, in a class that's literally designed to sacrifice their damage for support abilities. I really don't see how you guys keep typing this crap.

BLM moves out of ley lines, doesn't pay attention to their MP bar, their DPS plummets. A boss changes phase and MNK has to work their DPS up all over again through multiple GCD rotations. But you expect to run circles around the boss, ignore AoE indicators, and still put out damage on their level?
