I agree that BRD is in bad place but the AoE is definitely not too simple imo and is one of the great things about BRD, it can't be put in a set rotation and even general guidelines aren't very usefull. It's feelcrafty and you have to feel when and how to dot mobs as well as how to manage your songs and procs. I really think a BRD that knows what they're doing can outperform every job in this game AoE dps wise, while a BRD that only does the bare minimum will do less than any other job probably. High skill ceiling for AoE.

This doesn't concern you in particular, but it annoys me when people ask for an ability like Bane for BRD, since that would likely mean significant nerfs to its AoE dps and they'll be stuck then in another rigid rotation like other jobs, which also wouldn't fit their flavor I'd say.
