Bard - they broke my job

[AnnietheCat]

Iunno. My problem is this thread itself Yaah. It's literally 80+ pages of tears. The amount of negativity is insane and it's a waste.

You would think if it's 80+ pages of people who have leveled bard saying they do not enjoy something(which is the majority of this topic), people who haven't leveled it would understand. But no, people who haven't leveled bard 51 levels only to have it completely change after that point are the ones being less than compassionate on this topic. We voice our opinions only to be met with opposition from people who do like it and people who have never even touched bard in the first place. There are many threads of people coming together and saying they dislike this play style and yet all we're hearing from fellow players is "qq harder" and "git gud". 80+ pages of us saying "we do not enjoy this", and all anyone is taking from that we're whining and just being difficult. This is a hobby, not a chore.

Provide QoL solutions then instead of wasting your time crying. That's why you get this message.

No, no, I think they mean QoL solutions they like and/or approve of.

I actually agree with Aikaal on this one.
There have indeed been a couple of QoL solutions spread through these threads, but none of them were focused in one theread and mostly burried by a lot of back and forth.
I ran out of daily forum posts yesterday to reply again, so I had edited my post a couple pages back with my suggestions and I'm fairly positive at this point almost no one even saw those.

So I do suggest we focus our efforts into a bard QoL/Fix thread. Not a thread to be mad, qq etc. Just focus on suggesting solutions.
I went ahead and started one up, in the hopes it won't get flooded by the angry mob before it gets some good suggestions going.
