Preliminary 7.0 BRD feedback

[YuzukiTsuru]

The song change is awesome, But my biggest concern is that the song now needs to be postponed by one GCD window. Because the judgment of entering the combat state will be delayed by some seconds.

I don't understand the trait Ranged Mastery at LV94. Burst Shot and Refulgent Arrow currently have 220 and 280. Does this LV94 mean that the potency of these two skills will decrease for levels below 94? And, these are very basic damage-dealing skills. Let's do the math: if each skill does 10 less DPS in LV90, then BRD at level 90 raid like DSR and TOP every 120 seconds would lose 800DPS than before, And right now the song does no do damage, that's 1100 DPS in the DSR and TOP, That can't be compensated for simply by extending Battle Voice and Radiant Finale to 20 seconds.

Furthermore, extending Battle Voice and Radiant Finale to 20 seconds, while Raging Strikes remains at 20 seconds, will cause the buff durations of Raging Strikes and Battle Voice/Radiant Finale to be inconsistent. This may lead to a rigid and inflexible rotation in order to maximize DPS.

Based on the current changes, the rotation looks like this:



After actual testing, delaying the use of Empyreal Arrow until the fourth GCD may result in higher DPS.
