Bard - they broke my job

[Sessurea]

This game will forever be balanced around 8 man content^ Not trying to sound harsh here, but other content really doesn't matter as much. I couldn't care less what classes I get matched to in DF dungeons etc.

true, bards will feel their support is less valued once content gets overgeared, but who cares about overgeared content anyways?

Personally I wouldn't be in a static without a) a drg to boost me and b) a blm to boost. can always sing nothing but foes when stuff gets overgeared, and tbh looking at parses bard dps is still great. I really don't care that the blm, mnk and drg in my static out dps me; the boost I give our awesome blm is great and makes up for it.

Looking at a parse and judging the bards contribution by the bards dps alone is a mistake people on this forum seem to keep making.

If bard is still broken it's only due to clutter and qol changes that may or may not come, but it's dps is perfect now.
