So how would you buff bard? (Just like to hear peoples thoughts)

Once again we’re forgetting 2.0 though.

They already tried to make Bard ‘a competitive dps’. It completely fucking broke the game lol. They literally had to put a 20% personal damage reduction on every Bard song just to stop people stacking it lol. Have we ever seen another job so overwhelmingly powerful its own abilities had to nerf its personal output?

There’s no world in which Bard ever becomes ‘competitive’ with a melee without extreme reworks anyway (i.e removing all semblance of party support, implementation of actual mechanics and not pressing shiny buttons randomly, positionals Etc).

I mean frankly I find it jarring that people are calling by far one of the easiest jobs in the game as ‘hard’ lol but I guess it’s subjective
