    i have noticed it for a while..... its quite disturbing.
    most likely reason it happens is because the rain of death has no animation for the legs while wide volley has animation for both upper and lower parts of the body. also keep in mind this was something that bard was never intended to do at first. wide volley and rain of death were both on the GCD. just a bug because of the changes

    ya I'm aware, I remember 2.0 bard. I'd still like them to fix this though, it's really bad and not at all what you'd expect from a game of this quality.

    If anything, it's more evidence that they never planned for BRD to be able to weave their ability animations as it begins (windbite and wide volley specifically, now that they have cast times this is entirely the case), and they still manage to run into the same problem with empyreal arrow since oyu can use an oGCD/instant cast right after it to cancel it's animation. Though it's still a bit weird in BRD's case that they'd still animate the waist-down separately for those abilities when other jobs do it just fine (MCH with clean shot and supressive for example), and again in the case of empyreal it's a post-50 skill.
