I chose BRD for swift gameplay, if I wanted to cast I would have chosen a Mage.

the whole discussion is i want to run in shoot.

it's completely fine but when someone decides hey bards aren't fine.

well they are wrong their dps is fine, their core design (songs) are fine.

only players who want to run and shoot are affected and that is just a personal preference, it doesn't make or break the job.

As to these others, maybe they just want to ignore the fact that every class has certain aesthetics that draws folks in, and with Bard it's coming to a case of false advertising at this point.

i don't ignore it, but it doesn't make bards.

bards are still doing their job without mobility.
