    At the very least, BLM is BLM and BLM is really good. RDM is a sucky in FL but has a lot of nice survivability in The Feast and after a few tweaks will be in a nice spot.

    BRD and MCH is ???? I am not sure what is happening here but it feels like DNC has the same capacity for pressure while having more DPS utility, more sustain, more mobility. It was already dodgy before but at least MCH had a stun, which was taken away. Feels like DNC and BLM are superior to their peers right now.

    That's because Dancer is basically just straight up superior to the other two jobs. After playing Bard throughout 3.x and 4.x, it's depressing to see how awful Bard is at the moment compared to previous seasons. I don't know what went through the dev's head when they tried to balance the physical ranged dps in 5.x, but they sure were on something while doing so lol

    I miss playing Bard =[

    It's still playable in Frontlines, but yea, I've tried it in Feast, no chance. You can still get kills like it's not completely awful for supporting burst, but your pressure isnt the best outside of it. It's still fixable, natures is a really good utility ability, I really like the idea of sidewinder being an execute and shadowbite being an opener on burst, cos they do actually hit hard, it just needs to do more. Or Dancer needs to contribute way less. And Repelling Shot needs to be usable all the time, not just when someone's standing on you.

    Even then it's not gonna compete with FD3, Step Buffs and Saber Dance.
