    It’s just a rough estimate honestly. And my reasoning is that the lowest dps (that isn’t ranged) is 700-1000+ dps ahead of all three ranged. That gap is simply too large. Bard itself does 10-12% less damage than the top DPS. Is movement tax worth that much seriously?

    my point was mostly that any support bard has left (actual utility support, so no passive or even active dps boosting) is so weak right now, thats basically the realm of lip service that they let the stuff in bard still has. so putting that aside for a moment if you buff bard by 500 dps it would be about as strong as mch is now, so again, is mch fine right now ? or does bard in fact need more ? that isn't meant to criticize you, its just that people allways talk about "ranged" as if the 3 phys ranged are anywhere close to on the same level right now

    I don’t believe mch is ok no. All three need a boost of an equal amount of around 250-500 dps in my opinion. Remember it is just that, an opinion those who disagree. However that being said, bards “support” is dumb. Give it goes again, remove those passive buffs. Make it the middle ground between mch and dancer. Happy life

    And after all this. All I want is wildfire to crit. That’s enough of a buff for it. Nothing else would need to be changed
