So far, the estimates are that the added BRD buffs give about 700~800 rDPS to a full party. And they will scale higher as our gear scales in later patches. Overall, the BRD theorycrafters are classifying it as a win.

The 2% passive crit back in SB suffered from massive power creep the higher critical hit scaled. It was pretty strong, and I’d wager that these buffs are similarly strong. +1% straight damage for 30 seconds every time a BRD is in Minuet may seem small to you, but it adds up. The +2% critical hit up on Mage’s is in the same boat.
