Bard and Wanderer's Minuet use it

[Astral145]

At first I hated GB. Now that I am use to it and I keep on all the time. Avoiding AOE's while maintaining dps is no problem now. I understand you guys want the run and gun play but in all honesty just give it time and you will see that you are still very mobile. With that said all I want is my auto attacks back so the damage is more noticeable. Plus it would help players get past the cast times.

Yoshi-P disagrees with you. That wasn't my question though... Maybe I should have made my post shorter to get the point through loud and clear. Here, a condensed version:



Just curious if people would treat healers the same or if they have a double standard.

This makes zero sense, Healer DPS is not taken into consideration in any content so far. Healers DPSing is a bonus afterthought. Bards DPSing is not a bonus afterthought, and they need to optimize their DPS since they take up a DPS slot. If Wanderer's Minuet increases DPS, you need to be using it.

You could have more than one bloodletter in those 2.5 seconds, as well as blunt arrow, and misery's end
Having 2 attacks within 2.5 seconds happens often.

Heh, So a 30 second cooldown 50 potency shot and a 12 second cooldown shot that requires the target to be very nearly dead?
Sometimes, under very specific conditions if im very lucky, i can use an execute, 2 procs and a silence in 3 seconds!
Oh jeez, Ima attacking so fast!

But in all seriousness, 2 attacks in 2.5 seconds is the standard for Wanderers Minuet AND not using it. Any claim of attacking really fast without WM is plain 'ol bulltwat.

Umm. Excuse me? I absolutely have that right. And what you're talking about isn't "skill level" it's intentionally playing subpar. I can deal with low skill level.

I actually have all of those rights. You have the right to ignore me, but I totally have the right to say "You need to use WM."

Thats the mentality white racist or ignorant people use when they are told they cant say the n word. "YES WE CAN!" just saying.

I just cant understand how anyone could find that they do more DPS with WM off unless its a fight that requires a lot of dodging.

Interestingly enough, the cross-class skill Feint will still be fully Instant cast under the effects of Gauss Barrel. Assuming that Wanderer's Minuet more or less functions the same way, Bards under WM can still have good mobility when they need to move; opting to use Feint instead. Feint has a 120 potency attached to it, albeit slightly weaker than a Heavy Shot, but is still quite strong and nothing to scoff at considering the 30% damage boost. :O

You're really comparing people telling you to use WM to people using the N word?

I'm done. This is getting ridiculous now.

Tis probably a bug. I wouldn't get used to it, GB and WM explicitly state "All weaponskills". Assume it'll be fixed.

In all honesty, they would've caught it by now and fixed it.

A minuet is a dance. Bards stance dance...


And stop
And on
And shoot
Shoot
Shoot
And off
And move
And zip
Zip
Zip
And stop
And on
And


Well you get the point

Bards are mobile DPS that can kick on a DPS bonus when they have the time to stand still.

Also sing.. We like it when bards sing...

No you don't, If you can get the group to agree with you and kick them. That is fine, You have no right to tell others how to play when you queue for a dungeon or raid. You pick ease of access, at the cost of not being able to pick the rules for that group.

Anyone has the right to tell someone how to play or to give tips on how to play {as long as your not a asshole about it}
