Bard procs have little impact on damage variability

[Reginald_Cain]

It makes sense for procs not to cause wild damage variance. This game is designed to be super static nowadays and bard would suffer the same way samurai did when setsugekka wasn't guaranteed to crit. Having variance can be fun for lots of people but sadly it would lead to the job suffering in the long run in high end optimization.

Yeah plus any bigger rework to the combat system would do better to focus on functional/rotational variance due to procs, not damage profile variance (which usually comes as a result of that, but hence focusing on it would not make much sense).
