SE, please nerf Dancer if you aren't going to fix bard.

So, let's tweak the numbers. What about a 600 DPS change, allowing BRD a 200 DPS lead?

Looking at Titan at 95th percentile, the difference between BRD and DNC currently is roughly 150 rDPS. Your proposed nerf to DNC would actually knock the job down to ~12,600 rDPS going by the E4S numbers—meaning it’s dead.

There’s no need to nerf any job. Just buff BRD (preferably, revert the DoT nerf); and then buff the physical ranged as a whole by a little bit to decrease the gap between them and the other DPS jobs.


I will be curious to see what the job numbers will look at once people get more gear and start killing Verse more seriously/parsing. But I don’t think the thing to do right now is to ask for job nerfs to a job that really cannot stand to be nerfed.
