I'm not angry... okay just a little... I want things back the way it used to be.
But to be completely honest, I think WM already did all the damage it can to the BRD community. People either quit, changed or just got used to it now. As for myself, I spent the last 3 months coming in terms with WM.
I've spent enough time on this thread to read and get amusement about half of the "discussion." While I have spent no where near as much time as some people with a bard (since the birth of bard) and only started in February, I still have to say I have enjoyed being a bard. When I found out there was a bard, I immediately mained as one and completed RR and HW. The HW change threw me off as I was very fond of the AoE spam and dodging while maintaining dps. Sometimes depending on the fight, it is easier for me to dps without WM because I feel i cannot dps at all if I spend too much time trying to stay safe and attack with WM. Thankfully the last move at 60 at least can be used while out of WM which I think helps us be more flexible. I can easily see why so many are upset with the changes, I really do. In fact I am upset with them to some extent. That said, however, I believe SE has a right to change it however they want even if we don't like the changes they make because it is their game.
If you are a mentor, act like it! We all were new once before.
If you complaining about new mentor requirements, chances are you probably don't need to be one.
Respect the community, it will respect you back!
Yes I am an angry bard also. They made us a caster and we are not that. I fell in love with the roaming and being able to shoot while on the move. When 3.0 came out the grind was ridiculous to get to 60, so I leveled my main bard and alt monk and that was all because how they made the grind was ridiculous( In my opinion they need to adjust that also plus make more things to do to level- sorry to go off topic). I used to get on and play for 10 to 12 hours a day doing different things but how things are now I just get on to raid and get esos capped.
That said, they had the right to leave it at 20% damage bonus with cast time, which was objectively a DPS loss. But they didn't because people pointed out it was bad and they recognized it was bad.
Just because they have the right to make changes doesn't mean they should make bad ones.
That being said, they make the game, but we pay to play it. We also have the right to voice our discontent with a product we're paying for, especially if we were perfectly content beforehand and it was just an unnecessary change.
I am sure they are going to say something during the Live Letter. Or maybe they are not. They are pretty good at dodging awkward questions.
