Bard and Wanderer's Minuet use it

[Wavaryen]

I think more people are using it then not using it now, so it doesn't matter if 1% of the population doesn't use it. In the end, you are just hurting yourself.

Not from what I have seen or heard. A lot of long time bards dropping the class, and many who stick with it saying they won't use it. Sure some will use it, but I guess you and I both don't have the numbers or know the truth on this matter. However, if enough people don't use it, and the community does its famous back lash on the class. That will help move things along faster for us who don't want wm.

That is true. Only SE has the numbers ATM. From what I have witnessed though, it seems like the majority of the BRDs I have seen use it. I guess time will tell. From personal experience from MCH, having GB on doesn't change much for us playstyle wise, so most of us have it on.

I won't use it, if groups kick me out for not doing it. I won't cry, or be upset. I will boycott any badly design changes to a class I like.

I like your views and would like to subscribe to your newsletter. I'm refusing to level my bard after watching how my roommate is struggling in Heavensward.

Personally I feel like SE has given every job candy for this expansion and bards/mchs have been given a rock.

I rolled main bard as well, and find this equally frustrating.
If everyone doesn't use Bard as 'new' intended, then they'll have to change it.

Oh yeah just like how they addressed Bards not singing.

I do not believe Yoshi cares what your playstyle is, but the community that you play with does.

Forgive me for not caring about the community as much as I should, After reading the hate for dragoons for such a long time, and at the start of Heavensward, the treatment both mch and brd got. I find myself not feeling as bad as I should.

My point exactly. Bards choosing not to sing is nothing new and they didn't take away your songs. I really don't see them removing this. They may increase the dps even more but it's here to stay. Especially with more people using now.

So, the players who like it and/or plan to roll bard and are completly fine with a few 1.5s cast times can go f**k themselves?

Yup, I am not going to sugar coat it. Lucky for people who like a casting type play style. They have options!

[Atmora]

Because I didn't roll and main a bard to have the playstyle completely change in the expansion. I'll see if it's now at least useable after the fixes, but I'm primarily going to continue playing the way I want. Thanks.

If you're good it's numerically superior but still really clunky.
