That's actually a really good point. The tradeoff is that before, BRDs could more easily concentrate on lending support. Now they have to concentrate so hard on stance dancing, timing and weaving of skills, they don't have time to pay attention to who's low on mana or TP. You're lucky if you get a Foe's, if anything.

Sure, you can still do somewhat respectable DPS, but now you really have to work for it and it's just not fun for many people anymore. If it's a balance issue, I think it could have been achieved another way.
