Please don't remove Invigorate from BRD ><

I know, and it's not necessarily RNG it's probability. Look I can not comment on Bard practical damage because there is too much confusion. Some people say Bard is top DPS some people say they are worst, I do not know who to believe. One thing is that Bard has way too many CD's, they could raise damage or make the rotation more interesting but popping several cd's as a means for damage is not good design. It is not the skills of the character/player attributing it is stacking instant cd's.

Point.

People might be correct when they say Brd is one of the good dps up to titan, when u start coil and classes gears up on myth's and relic /+1 etc (so endgame), brd is low dps as it is.
When it comes to amount of buff cd's i can agree its number can seem to be high, yet, the end result will still be that brd is low dps on this stage of game. For me is timing my buffs to max out during diffrent phases in coil (t4 one of them) a fun factor, watching mana for my grp healers, and if needed put up som TP song also a fun factor, while doing my rotation.
People think maxing out the use of brd class is piss easy, maybe couse we dont have combo's, but fact is, maxing out brd dps isent the most easy class doing it on.

LOL at this thread. Bottomline is we don't know exactly what changes are going to be made. For all we know "too much damage" could be in relation to the next job SE has lined up for Archer. Everyone is too busy touting what their opinion of what a bard should be...
