Bard and Machinist are strong enough as it is, for jobs supposedly ‘support-based’ there’s a lot of desire to increase their dps. Ranged physical should naturally be at the bottom of the dps chain, it wouldn’t make sense otherwise. As a Bard you already get highly competitive damage, more utility than any other job, no cast times at all, an extremely simplistic rotation, almost infinite uptime, no resources to manage, barely need to manage MP or TP.

Giving them the ability to increase their own dps on demand would completely break them. Unless you want to see cast times come back (which I would love, but I know nobody else wants to see it)
