So after waiting for about 2 weeks to see the consequence of homogenization

The fact that you have so little knowledge of the job you hate and mislead every single point I have already said mean you are trolling. What happen right now is people like you only want your DPS to be the most DPS and screw other unique jobs like nin,rdm,smn, and bard, kill all other non-direct dps skills so that your dps ditcher job get the spotlight.

all combos are gone, which you ignored my point completely, which I already stated that if every job has combos interactions one way or another, this wouldn't have happened. And you would spiral down the game where one job gets all the utilities and there rest of that role would only do just press buttons do damage.

It's not just range, your mentality screw other 5 dps jobs and even healer like AST. Had there been more combos other than Bard+Drg or asking for MCH to have more combos with raid jobs, there would be no need to shit on other jobs like what you are doing. You are just not creative and short sighted and lazy.

Did I ever say Bard should have more buff than DNC? no. You just accuse me of oh, DNC should have useless buffs and all the good one to Bard.

You don't even know how buffs/debuffs/utiltiies in Ragnarok works. Let me guess, you only play like WoW for mmo?

Have you ever considered MCH to have more interactions with other jobs? No, because you only want "me me me me me DPS".

You should go read all the jobs abilities in Ragnarok. If you ever play an actual RPG that is, you wouldn't be so brain dead.

Bard players like fine, you want more DPS, go ahead get more DPS for MCH. But then you people come and say, fuck bard utilities, how dare you like singing with effect. lol
Pathetic.

Did you ever think
1) DNC now has all the offense buff and heals, Bard should maybe small party buff/debuff hybrid or just pure utility/defense supports? No.
2) Should MCH has piearcing/slashing/blunt combo with other jobs? No.

So much potential variety, but all you can think of is "nope, no interactions among jobs in RPG". In a god damn RPG.

Machinist did have interactions with other jobs in Stormblood. You know what happened? Raid groups still took bards over machinists. The only time machinists were brought into raids was when the raid was doing a 2 physical ranged DPS and no casters.

Bards brought too much utility to raids that they were just straight up mandatory. Did Square-Enix take too much away? Maybe. Did they need to take some away? Absolutely.

It went from lauded best designed job to "oh my god ruined" because of...losing a non interactive passive buff and a clunky as hell cast bar.

Exactly. Bard plays basically the same now as it did in Stormbringers.
