3.25 PVP Balance Feedback

@BRD/MCH mains : Your new job is to claim boxes for your team from a range and prevent the enemy team from claiming them while adding burst/ CC to help your melee best friend secure kills and interrupt other ranged jobs.

As funny as that sounds.

I do this already xD. And BRD has about two CC skills: Blast Shot -> Shadowbind or just pure Shadowbind. Now, healers can unbind themselves with Esuna/Leech so thats pointless on them. And while I can burst, it's something that's hard to setup correctly if you have a melee on your tail. I have to make sure that my Bites tack on, make sure the target's life is below ~80%. And if I go into WM and pop barrage, there's no going back. "It's do or die."
And if my target is smart, they can purify my bites once I go into WM and pop Barrage readying EA. That makes Sidewinder useless. At this point, I've already popped all of my buffs. There's no going back. And I can't do anything unless I stand still or x-class Feint for 20 secs. So unless my melee partner is very well coordinated with me, BRD is a detriment to the team. They're squishy as well, so an easy target. Dmg is still penalized outside of WM. Staying in sweet spot range makes you vulnerable to a melee chasedown.
As BRD is right now, they're the bottom tier class of all the ranged classes. And I mean severely outclassed.
