SB Bard Changes: Good or Bad? Thoughts?

[HyoMinPark]

"I don't even use the mobility, I just stand there anyway, I find myself recasting abilities thinking they were cancelled by movement"; none of these are issues with the current iteration of the class, but issues with acclimating to change. It'll come with time.

Going to respond to this, since it's a paraphase of a sentence in my post: The thinking I'm still interrupting casts when I move is just me needing to adjust to not having them. However, even before I got to Heavensward, back when I was 50 BRD or lower, I never moved around much. I would move to dodge AOEs, position myself closer to a mob if necessary (like for Quick Nock or Repelling Shot), reposition if the tank seemed to be unable to make up their mind which way to face the boss, etc., but I never moved around constantly like some of the BRDs I see. I stayed in one spot and only moved if I had to, not move just because I could. So my standing still isn't me needing to adjust from HW Bard--that's just how I've always played.

Anecdotal, of course, but I do know a few bards who play like I've always played: only moving when we had to, not moving just because we could.

It's actually similar to how archery is in real life, if you think about it. When you're standing still, you're able to put more power behind your arrow when you draw it back, as opposed to if you're moving. I know FFXIV isn't real life, but the cast times just always gave me the illusion of really drawing that arrow back, and firing it.
